Back in the saddle

Good news! Lawrence is on the good list again. Turns out I was feeling pressured and being wiggy before, and we went shopping yesterday, and it all came out and we talked and it's all good now. After I found out he's not planning on popping the question next week or anything, I was able to relax and we had lots of fun all afternoon and evening. And I got him to promise not to overwhelm me with gifts. I wouldn't let him by me anything at the mall, even thought he tried several times. Then tonight was the Single Adult fireside, and we ended up holding hands and cuddling up together the entire two hours. Afterward, we ended up talking in the parking lot for hours (Ok, it wasn't JUST talking. And Dr. Cudd, Kevin Peters, and Jim Kepple came out in the middle of us making out. How embarrassing!) and we connected really well.

On the superficial front, I finally brought up his glasses and how much I don't like them, and I found out he doesn't like them either! He's already planning on getting new smaller ones, and asked me if I'd come along to help pick out the frames! Yay! And he even offered to shave his beard without any prompting from me! Sweet!

I told him that back when I was friends with him 11 years ago, that I totally thought that if he wasn't married already I would totally go out with him, and he confessed that he kinda had a crush on me back then. tee hee.

We're going out on Saturday, to a place of my choosing, so I have to figure out what I want to do. He asked if he could please do something for me for Valentine's Day, and after a short discussion, I agreed that he could get me something small. That made him happy, and I like making men happy. :) Good times. Yep. I definitely like him.

I like his beard! What if he looks all soft when he shaves? But I guess you're the one that has to look at him, not me ;) I thought he seemed pretty cool... he got my obscure hobbit reference so that was cool.

Well, I don't like his beard, it's too bristly and gives me whisker burn. :) He says he has a receeding chin, but so do I, so ya know. He didn't have a beard before, so I already basically know what he's gonna look like. And a dork saying a dork is cool for getting a hobbit reference. Well, that's something I guess. :) Love you!

yeah apparantly beards are coming back this year.i don't really like them, but mainly because i'm bitter and can't grow one myself. sorry went off topic. don't freak out if he buys you expensive jewelry. just politely decline it. or take it, sell it, and come get me and we'll go to Reno.

Margie the Pickle Princess said...

Yay! Reno! No, I pretty sure he won't buy me expensive jewlery just yet.

KieraAnne said...

Ah yes, whisker burn sucks. I only get it the first week and a half or so after Patrick shaves and it's growing in all bristley...but after that it's soft and doesn't hurt anymore. Did you just call me a dork? :P

Margie the Pickle Princess said...

Yes. Yes I did. But you're a sexy dork. ;)

Glad to hear our friend Lawrence is still in the running.

Keep on keeping on, Margie! :)
