It is a blessed Friday! Surely everyone just said, "TGIF," under their breath- if not, I just don't understand. Today really should be a great day though :) It is definitely one of my favorite days of the week- also known around our house as "date night." Graham and I are Orlando-bound until tomorrow evening. Our plans include late night swimming at the hotel, going to spend a few hours at the temple and another adventure, one which we have yet to decide upon! Our options include: zip lining at Gator Land, visiting Sea World's water park Aquatica, watching the strange yet captivating Cirque Du Solei (there is a huge chance that that isn't spelt correctly), or maybe even going to Universal's City Walk to see the Blue Man Group. Who knows, we just decide to do something else entirely. Half the fun is the excitement of not having a plan.
I can't help but think back to our dating days- when everything pretty much had to be mapped out so that we could be sure to savor every moment by having fun to get us through the week and whizzing home in time for my curfew. My goodness, it is wonderful being able to just laze around, doing everything upon a whim. I do miss the anticipation of seeing Graham pull up into my drive way on Friday nights though- being so excited that the weekend had finally arrived and we could spend every moment together. Yep, I was obsessed with him (just like now :P ) Our long distance relationship definitely was hard at times, particularly on someone as clingy as me, Graham breezed through it. I thought it was when we had to miss a weekend to see each other or when I couldn't drive down during the weekdays for his birthdays because of work, but BOY it was so worth it in the end!

I still feel like I'm living in a dream. πππ
