it's alright.

alright alright alright
boys will be boys.

so i was being a little tongue-in-cheek 

{actually i think it was more like BITE ME}

'bout  rhett's lack of memory

of our first little moments together,

but you girls are right...

Men = bad memories. 

Wait.  

bahawhahaha

correction!

Men have bad memories. 

So he doesn't remember our pre-dating date days.

...he remembered to remove the AC unit from the main floor last night so I didn’t have to look at it and get depressed that last weekend the sun was beating down at 89 degrees and now it’s not.

he remembers to get up and make coffee every day. Bless him.  

he remembered Mother’s Day and gave me the best day ever...  

me.  on mother's day.  i smiled all.day.long.

....he remembers that I get easily overwhelmed and sometimes I just need him to be there.  And he is. 

he remembers and gives me cards and tells me and shows me that he knows we are lucky to have found each other and that he’ll always remember...

"i've never loved anyone the way i love you"

...he remembers to kiss me goodbye.

he remembers to tell me he loves me every single day....

he remembers the important things.  

Rhett and I.
At the Black Eyed Peas/U2 show
In Vancouver, B.C.
October 29, 2009
18 days after we met.

all the important things.

the things that matter.  

and that's what matters.

i love you babe.  ;) 

-m-

bite me. i am so annoyed right now.

I wore this on my first date with Rhett.  well, not the pink plaid pajama bottoms, I wore that shirt. I know.  I'm pretty sure I picked it up in the height of my Team Vampire stage. Tonight I went upstairs, opened up my drawer, saw it, and got all sappy and nostalgic. I put it on with my pajama bottoms and went prancing down the stairs and skipped up to Rhett and said "baaaabe... do you remember?? I wore this shirt on our first date!"  He kinda glanced at me and said "oh, ya.  ya, I remember that babe."

"What else do you remember about our first date babe??"

I was so freaking giddy.  oooooh, a moment was coming!  what were the very first things he was thinking, what does he remember about our first weird awkward "non-dating" date moments? eeeeek, what would he say???  Honest to god, I almost told him to hold his thoughts so I could grab a pen and jot it all down.

and then He said: "well, I remember that shirt".

"well, ya babe.  I just said that."

He threw me another glance.
so I threw him a bone.

"well babe", I said, "I remember we met at that restaurant that I don't like and I didn't eat a thing"...

and..

"I remember that the guys in my office told me to wear a lacy pretty top cause I had met a guy that I actually said I liked, so I did, and then after we left the restaurant, I changed my shirt and I asked you if you thought it was weird that I changed my shirt (to the Bite Me shirt.  It was just in my handbag.  Don't ask, I don't know) and you stared at me and said "no, I don't think it's weird you changed your shirt, but I think it's weird that your shirt is on backwards."

AND.. 

"I remember that you took me to your brother's spot and then we went upstairs and I saw some guy I vaguely recognized but couldn't place so I cut a hard left and disappeared behind the other side of the bar and hid, frantically trying to plan an escape, and you found me and said, "hey, my buddy is here, you know the one that was with me last weekend."

I think my hands were on my hips by this point.

"What do YOU remember babe?"

"Um, well, I remember all that."

THAT'S IT.
I asked him 5 times.
He remembers what I remember.
That's All.
I am sooo annoyed right now!
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN.
That is what I want to know now.
I mean.  Seriously.
His first date with the girl that changed her shirt mid-date to a vampire toothed winking Bite Me shirt and he doesn't remember anything??

Bite me.  :P

-m-

pinned it. did it. bought it.

   {earrings} 
{garden}

purchased the earrings from Tobi {click here}

cute, inexpensive style items!

I pinned those earrings.  And I clicked, clicked, clicked, and bought those earrings.  oh how I love them.  I used to have a similar pair in whites and browns that I wore till they literally broke, strand by strand.  I anticipate these coral beauties may have a similar fate.

When I started my patio rearrange {here if you missed it} I knew without a doubt that I wanted to try and recreate a recent pin to my Home board.  I thought the trail of flowers was so whimsical indeed.  Mine, of course, isn't as gorg as the one pinned, but I have high hopes. ESPECIALLY after finding little sprouts this morning from the seeds I planted to fill in and create the full trail!  X'ing my fingers and toes they grow and bloom!

Linking up to the parties today! Will do my best to hop around and say hi later this week.. my unexpected time out of the office last week has me barely breathing during looong working hours.  Have a Happy Day!!
