reality..

So husband and I were married a year as of January 9th. We moved that day so didn't celebrate. We decided to wait until he had 4 consecutive off days to actually celebrate, today is day number 2 of those off days.

Anyway, originally we had planned on going out of town to Tupelo. He had saved up some money so we could afford it. He was going to trade in his play station 3 to get me a Wii because he knows I've been wanting one forever. We were going to eat a nice meal, come home, hook up the Wii & play it. Not the most exciting thing in the world but despite us being 20 & 22, we are rather old at heart and prefer staying home anyway.

Reality is such a funny thing. You make plans and it kicks you in the face and says "fuck that, my way is cooler." Reality is a bully, by the way.

Husband had to go pick up my step-son at school this morning because he was sick. My best friend's father was in critical condition this morning after a car wreck last night and she was distraught. So best friend came over and mom and I tried our best to console her, a hard thing to do when her dad is 9 hours away and she has no money to get to him. We managed to find enough money to get her there, I think that alone was enough relief to stop her crying, which made me feel better.

All that and then I called gamestop only to find out the entire city has been out of stock of Wii's for 3 weeks since they dropped the prices from $299 to $199. sigh. So husband and I went & ate steak and salad at a local restaurant and took a nap instead. :)

This whole thing probably sounds like I'm complaining but in all honesty, I've never been happier. My husband is the sweetest man, even if he sucks at showing it sometimes. He was going to give up spending me and him time so my bff could come with us, hoping it would take her mind off of her dad.

On a side note, my husband is a quick guy. He managed to dodge a 6 year olds projectile vomit this morning. Awesome.

ahhh what a day.
