Thanks to the magic of Olivia, past journals can be easily accessed. Now I've moved in with my girlfriend, I need to go back into the world of Why I Love My Girlfriend.
Blasts From The Past.
1. Double Leter Speling.
2. Gib-Jibbing.
3. The Health Crisis.
(Long story, but worst over.)
4. You're So The Guy In This Relationship.
So now (after long-run long-distance-relationshipping) we're getting used to cohabitation. Thinking about furniture:
HER: I love my parents' furniture. I wish we could just go get it.
ME: So why don't we go get it?
HER: They're still using it.
ME: We could kill them.
HER: I tried that.
Several hours of looking around for couches in a retail Supa Centa later (with her looking at couch after couch, going "Nooooooo" at everything).
HER: I can't find a couch I like.
ME: We've looked at dozens. What is it you want in a couch?
HER: I don't know, but I'll know it when I see it.
ME: *sigh*
Lying in bed that night.
HER: [sounding unsure] So what do you think about the last couch we looked at, if we got it in the red fabric?
ME: Well, you know, we don't need to get that one, but you have to ask whether there's much likelihood of finding something you really like in the next little while.
HER:, No, you don't understand, we're going to get it, I just wanted you to have a chance to state your opinion before we get it.
Other things:
ME: You never like the presents I buy you.
HER: [outraged] I do so!! Take that back! Apologise to me! I make the all the right happy sounds! I do like them...duhhhh..wake up and smell the satisfied girlfriend!
And:
ME: You ate a mango and didn't ask me whether I wanted any??
HER: Yes. It's a dog-eat-mango world.
Lastly:
HER: I hate it when you're clean-shaven. It's like kissing the underside of my dog.
You want to know about the sushi addiction? I'm thinking of staging an intervention.
She's over on the couch (the crappy old one, we haven't bought anything new yet) wondering what I'm writing about her. If you don't hear from me in the next few days she's done something bad to me.
