Hello my darling,
By now you only have two more weeks away from my loving grasp. You've become quite the adventure, and your dad is convinced you're a natural Peruvian. I think he may be a tad jealous, in my honest opinion. He's cute.
I've spent so much time with your family while you've been away! I'm pretty sure it's safe to say they like me. Which I'm pretty gosh darn giddy about.
I'm currently sitting outside my house with good ol' Scout and listening to my neighbour Nate whistle in his shop. Made me think how great of a whistler you are. Lots of things remind me of you these days. Which can be nice, but also sort of sad. I wasn't prepared to miss you so much, but man do I..
I've only cried I think four times all the days you've been gone for. I'm actually quite impressed with myself. Sophie says I'm really strong. I'd have to agree.
I can't wait to see all your photos and hear all your stories. You have a lot of catching up to do with your life.... And Orange is the New Black. (I didn't mean to start season two.. it just happened..) but the episodes are so good I have no problem re watching.
Let's see.. you missed a few birthdays- Sophie's was fun- but I was texting you nearly the whole time. Alannah just got promoted to supervisor – I'm totally stoked for her – but it also grinds my gears a little bit. Bella was in town and I've decided I adore her, pretty sure we are best friends. Sorry–not–sorry. Also – me and your auntie Paula are practically related, but not in a weird way. I guess you could say I'm practically one of the family. (Not to get carried away or anything)
Annnnnyways.. I miss ya. I like writing letters. Wish you could write back, but you're busy being a nomad- not to mention I'm sure a postage stamp there would be close to $40.. Convert that to soles.. Carry the one.. Yeah- way too expensive.
I'm kind of rambling, only because I can and I feel like I'm actually talking to you, and I like my handwriting on graph paper. I can't wait to hug you! I'm way to excited for hugs. Like weirdly excited. So don't hold back.
Beau is going crazy with his music. Doing really well that is. Booking lots of shows and whatnot. It's exciting to watch. One he's particularly stoked for is on the 12th at Mekka. Roderick and Emily are playing too as a last hoo-rah before Roderick moves. Should be a fun night. As always – wish you were able to attend.
Speaking of music – BRING ME BACK THE UKE! I want to be musically inclined, not just vocally. I want to be cute like Stephanie! I'll try not to hate you too much if you can't bring it home.. But I will be pretty bummed.
I'm reading another book. So far so good. I'll probably be done long before you get back. Hmmmm. Let's see here. What else..
I haven't told you I love you yet! I mean it goes without saying, but it's always fun to write down.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
Four times. (since four is your favorite number) and slowly becoming mine.
This month the countdown officially begins. You have (as of today): 18 days till you come home. It's been rough this last little stretch, been in my head too much, but I decided a few things. Nothing huge or anything to get excited/scared over. Just the way I think about stuff and whatnot. We are all works in progress I'm slowly finding. Trying not to sweat the small stuff or make mountains out of mole hills. Because in the end we all do things we don't quite understand because we love. That crazy little emotion takes over we just have to roll with it. And man am I excited to roll with you.
I'm not sure how much of this is starting to become mush and nonsense, but my hand decided it sounded right.
We are on to page number five (front and back altogether it counts) and I'm starting to feel pathetic. This has officially become a blog post (which I've been doing more of!) go me (:
So I better wrap it up. Let's recap shall we?
1.) Your family loves me more than you.
-just kidding, but really.
2.) You've missed some stuff.
-shit happens, they will all have more birthdays.
3.) I'm practically dating a Peruvian.
-don't think you're going back without me.
4.) All out friends miss you.
-but mostly me.. Duh.
And I should stop at four to make you smile, but we all know..
5.) I LOVE YOU.
see you soon my love.
