beautiful, beautiful.....bed.

Our anniversary is next week. Thats right. Four years. About two weeks ago I found out I was getting a present for our special day. The anticipation was killing me. For those of you who know me well, you know that patience has never been my virtue. But, I tried. I only asked about it every OTHER day. Mischeivious grins preluded my comments that went something like: "So....is it in the house yet?" Or: "Is it edible?" Or, most often: "For crissake! Cant I just SEE it already!?!?!"
When he (my adorable man) was tight lipped (as he always is, that sneaky devil) my mind would wander on to romantic and impossible dreams. He was going to propose to me on top of some nature spot and I would cry and he would lift me in his arms and.......no. "Stop it Selene" I would tell myself. I knew better than to expect such far fetched fantasies from my adorable and decidedly "anti marriage" little love crumpet. God Bless him. God dammit.

Last night though, an impatient persons dream came true. I got my present EARLY!!!!! I got home from a dinner and movie with my cute as a button friend Juanita and I noticed that the canopy on the truck was off. "Strange..." I thought. When I asked my man about it he shrugged it off with excellent convincibility and asked me to grab something off our bed downstairs. So, down I went. I opend the door to our bedroom-and there it was: A KING SIZE SIMMONS BEAUTY REST BED!!!! "EEEEGADS!"( I believe my reaction sounded something along these lines). If you,dear reader, only knew our old bed. Our broken, small, dirty squeaky joke of a bed. If you knew-you too would share in my freakish, squealy excitement. My man, my sexy sneaky catch of a man, walked in with a grin. "Happy anniversary my love" he said. I grabbed him, pulled him on to the bed and we celebrated in a very adult fashion I dont think I need to explain.

The best present EVER I say!! But, now....with our anniversary only a week away, I am racking my brain thinking of how I am going to top this present. What do I get the man? The adorable, curly blonde catch of a man? Hmmmmm......I think I need to lay down on my BED awhile and think about it.

Hmm, how well I remember how impatient you were when you discovered an un-opened present! I quickly learned it was much easier to keep you from discovering them than dealing with your frantic need to OPEN THEM RIGHT NOW!
Delightful entry, and loverly that you have a wonderful new mattress. Happy zzzz's
