Thoughts.

Here I am at 6 o’clock in the morning, getting ready for the first official day of talks. I find myself staring out the window for a moment, thinking about the times we have spent together.  I looked at the photos we took together and also the ones you sent me when I am away.  ESPECIALLY, the ones you sent me these 2 days. I appreciate you doing that for me. 

You helped me keep my cool and keep my act together. You are my sanity Hope and so much more. I honestly believe if you have not done what you did, keeping me company at weird hours, reminding me of you and your smile,  I would have gone nuts. You made such a profound difference in my life that is it unexplainable. What I cannot explain with words, I can only do my best to show you with my actions. I will try and do just that every day, show you just how important you are to me. 

For the next 4 days, i just gotta make I keep my wits with me so I make it home in one piece so that I can see you again.

Thankful

Eddie,

I can't ever explain in words how grateful I am that fate brought us together.
Not only do we have the best times together and create great memories, we actually add value to each other's lives.

This week alone you have improved my life so much.
I have to add to this blog how much you just did for me and how grateful I am. (Within a weeks time!!!, like WHAT?!)

You have put into motion the starting of my company, Esoteric, and have officially put me somewhere that I didn't know was possible.

Not only that, you have shown me so many things I used to believe weren't possible actually are possible!!! 😀

All aboard

You have such an effect on me. When  the first picture of your sleepy and lovely eyes came arrived on my phone, it felt so good. In fact, i am looking at both the pictures now. You always have this smirk on your face. You know you look good. You know I cant stop looking at you.

Today i spent 27 minutes on the phone with you. That my dear is an unusual thing for me. I do not make personal calls unless i absolutely have to. There I was happy as a bee on the phone. I have to admit our topics of conversations can be rather random with lots of tangents. But that is ok. I love hearing that voice of your.

I have a few more hours to go before I land and then it is meetings and meetings.  Omg for all that is holy how many more hours do i have to go!!!!!!!

I had a conversation with a friend while I was in the air.

Working Tuesday

Hope, you were on a mission today! I can feel the intensity from you when i picked you up. I guess i did say we will work and if we have time, we will relax abit. I am glad that We were able to hammered through the details rather quickly. The rest is in your hands Hope. 🙂 good luck Hope, I know you can do it. I believe in you. I really did not want today to be just about work.

We did take a moment to look at Jake’s website and we were very judgy about it 🙂 It can be so much better. I think you will whip that into shape in no time at all. boy i suck at taking selfie.

What is sad, is that after we took this picture, I will not be able to see you for a while. I have to travel somewhere for work and this is the first time I am NOT looking forward to flying off. I do not know if you will ever understands this but life is just 1000000000X more amazing when you are around.

Chicago – Second Trip

At the time of this post, this trip is the most fresh in my memory. My dear Hope, you are definitely not the most punctual of people but when I see that smile of yours, nothing else matters... absolutely nothing..
.
.
This was around 3 am in the morning ..... like i said, nothing else matters.

 

(Fair warning Hope,  I am updating this post constantly... adding random bits and pieces here and there as i get a moment to sit down)

The above was a tangent right off the bat. It has been an interesting week leading up to this trip. It was a roller coaster for me and an intense week for both Hope and I. Classes was out after Weds and you had tons to do before we leave for our trip.

I know you have warned me that you have a horrible week ahead and I would not be able to see you.. (Aarrggggggghhh just aarrgh). Well that didnt stop me from  getting tickets to Eagles in Chicago just in case. .... Its stupid. i know but hell, i rather be prepared. I didn't tell you cause i didn't want you to stress about it and get distracted.

(Hope destroys pizza... see example below.)

This week was rough for me. It felt like forever since i saw you. And when I finally did, I wasn't going to let go. When you finally agreed to let me drive you, I was so happy.... little did i know I would be driving THAT much!

You are such a trooper. You hung in there in the car, awake until the very end then then you fell asleep. 🙂

 

 

There is still so much to write..... but this is a note to myself to add a gallery here for the photos we took.

1 2 ... 4

Eddie,

On this trip you showed me so many things:

The first one that pops up in my memory is that there was a moment while we there that I realized that my imagination can't compare to the REAL adventures you show me. My mind was blown by the hiding spots and the adventurous side of me was screaming for joy inside!!

I definitely did show you that I can destroy a piece of pizza in .2 seconds, but you reassured me that you don't judge (as you always do, I love that)!

Also, I remember being so impressed by how during the 3 hour drive to my sisters (that was only supposed to be an hour), you kept your cool the entire time (even tho I had to stop to pee so many times hahaha). I have never seen someone remain so calm in such a stressful time. (You and I both know I was yelling out the window at people, so the calm had escaped me LOL).

I will type more later, for now I can sum this up by saying THANK YOU SO MUCH for an amazing time!!
