just because

everyone else is doing it.
why do i feel obliged to post about vday? well.. because it was our first. and all of you who think it is cheesy to post about it, i agree with you. but even though i am way cool, i am not too cool to post about vday with my favorite person. ever.
i won't give you a synopsis of our entire day, i will just say this: we did nothing special. at all. but we loved each other so much. i felt like it was our wedding day all over again (minus the drama of a wedding).
i have been going through a phase the past couple of days where i feel like we don't appreciate each other as much as we did when we were first dating... we never hug or kiss or hold hands like we used to. i feel like we take each other for granted ever since we got married. i can be so mean. so mean. i don't even realize it. but sometimes i will think in the shower (that is not what you want to picture, but it's where i do most of my thinking) about what i would do without him. and honestly, i have no idea what i would do if something happened to him. and that just makes me love him even more and realize that every single day we love each other more and more by doing simple things. like when he makes the bed. or when he tells me he is excited for me to get home. or tickles my back without me asking. or watches cupcake wars with me and makes me a different bowl of popcorn because he knows i hate the buttery kind. and he does these things right when i need him to do them. right when i'm feeling insecure and paranoid. it's seriously the best thing ever.
bottom line is, vday was awesome just because i simply knew how much we loved each other and i quit being so damn paranoid. i don't know if it was because of the expectation to love on that day or what it was, but i was giddy. and he was too. and it was great. the world needs more of these days.
anyways, enough with the cheesiness. 
just to brag... i got young the giant tickets :)

"i read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand and Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. i wish i had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep. and there are no words for that"
