o.. the happy tears Ü

i don't know whats wrong with me.. maybe its the going to therapy thing.. i dunno.. but i cry quite freely and at the silliest of things.. heard of people that cry at commercials? yup. thats me. i cried at a picture book in church this last sunday- it was about a little boy growing up and learning about going on a mission, and telling his mommy he would miss her.. and *sigh* i still wanna tear up. i just kept thinking about when i'm a mom and with my boys, and hopefully they'll love me that much, and then about nate and how proud i am of him and then how awful i feel for his mom cause i don't feel like he pays her as much attention as he pays me. my point- i cry at lots of things.
so monday- i checked the mail at my mom's house- i've been trying to check it a lot lately because i'd asked nate to send my mail there because i'd be moving there. i was shocked to actually find two letters! (well, question cards- i'd sent him a package with pre-addressed envelopes and cards with questions on them- his job was to fill out a few cards and send it to me so that i would actually get something from him.) which i was totally and completely blissed out with. but looking through the mail i found a notice that there was a package waiting at the post office. the notice said it was a large envelope and i was so excited because at the very least it would have pictures in it. well, in an attempt to get to the post office early i woke up with heather and exercised and was off for the post office of pg! my favorite mail person greeted me and went to find my envelope- but came back with a box!! i was shocked and scared to ask that maybe he had the wrong thing- but it said nate's name and the barcode matched and so he handed me my box and i rushed to my car and preceeded to rip open the box with my keys. packages are sweet- don't get me wrong- but they feel kinda like a waste of money- and i would really rather just have letters. but my package had letters:) and when i finally saw the stack of them i was in tears- lame i know. but after not receiving a paper letter since early november- i feel pretty entitled to tears. they were happy tears Ü. so i sat and looked through what he'd sent me.. and well.. i'm pretty darn happy. and the cards are pretty darn cute. and i'm pretty darn sure that i love that man. i can't wait for mother's day. i only hope that i don't cry then too...

a tale of true love

this novel was texted to me by my very good friend kyla (a couple week ago when i was having a craptastic day). and since she made it up herself i haven't had the heart to erase the texts. so why not blog them! lol.

once upon a time there was a cow named... tom. yes tom. tom was no ordinary cow you see. he didn't moo. he cockadoodledoed!
so tom felt very left out. he wasn't happy because he was different. the cows in the pasture all made fun of him... and didn't let him play cow games.
then one foggy christmas eve...
*intermission* (to respond to texts)
ope! shhh show's back on...
so the cow. named tom. on a foggy christmas eve he looked around... and there was a beautiful...
... fish!!!
this was the most beautiful fish he had ever seen. with gilles so blue, scales flashing, bringing out her beautiful orange eyes... and he knew immediately...
it was love.
he quarted the fish- haha get it? quarted like a quart of milk haha- and the fish soon fell in love with tom too. but there was one obstacle.
water.
of course tom didn't mind that they were an odd couple... or the distance between them... there was nothing like a kiss with glass between...
oh yes so close and yet so far. dang bowl. anywho, they decided something must be done. they couldn't go on like this! but what to do?!
so tom went to his friend.. peter cottontail. "peter" he said, "what am i to do?!" but peter wouldn't listen. he kept talking to his kids.
his millions of kids! tom got so frustrated. so he went to his friend sham. but sham was too busy frolicking up and down and tossing clovers! "sham!" he
yelled. "what the crap?! stop frolicking like a flower girl!" but sham just kept yelling "luck o de irish matey! luck o de irish matey!" tom had had it.
"some friends! see if y'all get an invite! or christmas presents!"
tom was very sad. what was he to do? he loved henrietta- the fish- and would do anything for her... but what?!
"i got it!" he suddenly yelled. he went to see his friend ness.
Loch ness.
henrietta was crying in her bowl when tom came up...
since fish always cry and you can totally tell...
and when she saw tom she gasped!
tom rolled to her in a giant hampster like ball- full of water!
henrietta jumped for joy! in a way only a fish can and jumped into the bowl with tom. and shared their first kiss...
*CENSORED!*
SICK!
and then she wondered how he could do it! but then she looked...
tom had on an oxygen mask! and the oxygen tank was hanging outside on the edge of the bowl!
and tom and henrietta rolled off into the sunset... happily ever after...
THE END!
