Never been one to hoot and holler about romance, but since my guy and I are on opposite ends of a really long transatlantic line, I can't stop thinking about how much I miss him. I'm having a blast in Europe, but thereš still a little bit of emptiness lurking around my travels. I love my quirkly alone time, but I REALLY miss having someone to share my plate with.
I try to be faithful in recognizing my blessings, and the Polar Bear (my sweetieš nickname) ranks really high these days. Heš quite a special catch, and I thought I'd share a few reasons why (in traditional countdown form..... :)
10. He's an awesome cook (and surprises me sometimes by packing leftovers for my lunch the next day....and he includes cutlery!)
9. He took me to see Vagina Monologues (yes, I bought the tickets, but really, he was like 1 of 1.5 straight guys there.)
8. He always keeps bottles of our (and my) favorite wines on hand.
7. He gives the warmest hugs at the airport (in both the Arrival and Departure terminals).
6. He made me a Valentine's gift basket with arts and crafts from Michaelš.
5. He always talks it out.
4. He listens, and asks really great follow up questions.
3. He tolerates my mood swings, personality ups and downs, and disorderly conduct.
2. He understands me, and when he doesn't,
1. He really tries.
Not to lecture about relationships, but if youŗe guy is special, be sure you let him know, k?

Rebirth of Slick - The 100th episode
Totally cheesy, but my guy and I have been in each other's lives since November, so yesterday we mused that it'd be our 3-month celebration. It doesn't seem like a very long time, so I decided to count the actual number of days that we've been making each other laugh hysterically, embarass ourselves quite comfortably in front of each other, stuff our faces with gluten free trigger foods, and drink, snip, swirl and stare at wine together.
It's our 100th episode of the rebirth of slick. Here's to you, kiddo!
