I worked this morning until 1:30, and after that I went to my grandmothers to have dinner there. It was my moms side of the family. It was okay, it just felt different this year. Things were crazy. I felt bad for my mom because she cooked most of the items since my grandma is not well lately. The food was okay, turkey was super dry but if I were my mom I wouldn't be too worried about that either... I picked at my food... eventually left to go home and get ready to go over Bobby's. I love my family but I felt kind of awkward this year. Not too many people actually take an interest in what goes on - they mostly just chastise you for not coming around lately.
Anyway.
So once I got there, his family was already home from his grandparents house. The first thing he did was feed me his grandmas "green jello". I recall seeing it last Christmas actually, but I didn't eat there so I never tried any. It's DELICIOUS! It's made with lime jello and cream cheese and pineapple and walnuts and coconut I think. It tastes like a fruit snack only in .. fluffy jello with pineapple and nuts style.
Then we watched..... CHRISTMAS VACATION!
I was secretly super excited about this because no joke, I had visions of watching this with them soon and I kind of hoped we'd watch it tonight but I never even mentioned anything, Bobby brought it up! After the movie, his parents brought us a big piece of his grandmas pumpkin pie to share. It's as tasty as my grandmothers is, only maybe not quite as sweet. Also, there is more to it. His grandmothers is bigger in general. It was delicious!
So after that, myself, bobby, and his mom and dad played a couple games of apples to apples. During the second game Bobby decided he wanted a turkey sandwich and this is when I sampled some of their leftovers.
The turkey was sooo good. I never knew turkey could taste that good. It was juicy too. Definitely not used to it! His grandmother makes a sausage stuffing and she puts like 12 eggs in it. It's more dense and seems more like egg than bread but it was very tasty. Oh and his mom also gave me some of the green bean casserole she made.
Then we all went back in the living room and started watching something else - i forget what - i was mostly cuddling with Bobby.
Eventually they went to bed and we just relaxed together the rest of the night.
But the cute thing - during the leftover break - Bobby's mom was like "So, your guys anniversary is coming up soon huh!"
Later I mentioned to Bobby I was surprised she mentioned that, and he was like "yeah! me too!"
His dad was asking me if I like fish and everything because they do the italian 7 fish thing. So I guess I'm invited over for Christmas again this year. I wasn't TECHNICALLY invited over last year as we'd only been dating for what - 15 days haha... but uh it all worked out =). They didn't have a problem with me coming over for christmas and they were going back to his grandparents house later that night (they live right down the street) and they just had me come along.
I love his family... they are wonderful people.
Oh and then I was cracking up because I guess earlier that day Bobby and his dad were walking up the basement steps (their garage pretty much is their basement) and his dad saw his pants hanging on the line that have a big hole in the crotch. Well his dad was like "What, she didn't want to wait?" or SOMETHING like that, LOL.
He was kidding of course.
But omg - that made me laugh. I wouldn't expect it of him.
Anyway I'm done blabbing. I hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving =)
"So... I have a theory. If we were to move in together right now... we would be eating ramen noodles every day for a year ... and I would be completely fine with that"
who'd have ever thought the sweetest thing would include the words "ramen noodles".
(in case you don't get it.. he's saying we'd be so poor we couldn't afford groceries, save for 40 cent packs of ramen noodles, lol... but he would gladly eat ramen for a year to be so close to me all the time) i feel the need to include the explanation because upon second thought, some might interpret this as "bobby really loves ramen noodles a lot".
today ended up being PERFECT. bobby came over. we relaxed for a bit in front of my dads new 50" plasma TV. my dad ran out and bought it because he claimed the old one was flashing. i don't know if I posted about this yet or not but i was concerned when he and his pal were carrying it in. i was like "dad, please don't have a heart attack while i'm gone"... it is kinda nice to have but i am not a big tv watcher so it really doesn't do much for me.
so after some nice quality together time, we went to eat at Salsitas. it's a really tasty mexican rest. around here. i know there are 2 in my area and they sell chips in grocery stores so maybe it's a national chain? i don't know. anyhow, it was his first time there and he really liked it.
so after that we went out to buy some more school supplies and i got my first comic book ever:
so now i have to go study my face off for latin and try to memorize a bunch of endings and stuff. wish me luck...
We played catch (fun! I haven't done it in forever).. blew bubbles with the giant bubble wand I bought us. Seriously the best $1.99 I ever spent. I forgot to take pictures of that =(. It was just a really relaxing, beautiful day. We stayed there until it got dark and eventually we went back to his place. I only stayed until 11:30 because I had to get up to run this morning. It was just such a satisfying day. We got pretty lucky with the weather I'd say =).
I met Bobby at my moms house. We had no specific plans, we were just gonna walk around the mall and I was hopefully going to get some more ideas for birthday gifts for him.
We came up to build a bear and he's like "hey! let's go in.." so we go in and we're looking at the selection of sad, unstuffed animals and Bobby tells me to pick one out. I really didn't want him to spend money on build-a-bear... but hey, who could refuse? I've always wanted to do that, haha. So... we picked a panda.
Something about Bobby that is unlike all the others: He is SO much FUN! We picked out a monkey sound for him, and then we carried him to the stuffing machine. The woman there was so funny. We were laughing non-stop. She asked us how long we've been dating and we said over six months and she said "Oh, that's wonderful. Some girls come in here with their boyfriends and they've been together for like 2 weeks and want them to buy them stuff. I'm like GEE just slow down would ya". She was just really funny. She had us go through the whole routine. We both got a heart to put inside him. I chose the gingham one and Bobby chose the red satin one. We had to rub them on our belly's so he wouldn't be hungry.. on our heads so he'd be smart.. on our muscles so he'd be strong.. etc.. etc.. haha. Then we had to kiss them. Finally we stuffed them inside him and she closed him up. She had us head to the "washing station" where we gave him a "bath". We blew the extra fluff off him and brushed him, haha.
Then Bobby picked out an iron man t-shirt and some boxer briefs. "he's in his pajamas!" he said. LOL. Poor Bobby.. I made him do most of the picking because I didn't want to choose anything expensive. There was a batman suit we almost got him. A spiderman one too. LOL. Bobby picked Reggie and I picked Funk. I picked Funk because he's funky looking.
For one, he makes monkey noises and he's a panda. Second, he has a crooked nose AND his left ear is smaller than his right. All of which I love.
That random visit turned into SUCH a memorable experience. He is so much fun to be with. No one else I've dated would have ever gone through with all that ridiculous stuff, haha. I just love him so much.
Here are some pictures. My eyebrow was wigging out =(.
Anyway we were standing there looking at bedding and it came on out of nowhere, and we just stared at eachother like "oh my god!" haha.. and we just hugged each other and held on tight the whole time. It was precious.
Tonight was perfect.
I may have mentioned that while on vacation with Bobby and his family, we stopped at several Harley stores. His parents have a bike, which I'd never have guessed. That is mostly due to my ignorance and my idea of people who ride motorcycles being the stereotypical wild hogs kind of people.
I know. I rock. Anyway at the first store his parents insisted on buying me a shirt. I'm wearing it today like a big huge poser: (please don't mind my split ends...my hair needs cut)
The back has the NC location on it. I think it was Hickory.
On the way home Bobby bought me one too. He picked it out. This one doesn't have the location though:
Bobby wants his own bike eventually, which scares the crap out of me. He wants to get his license for them soon and take me for a ride. During which I will be clinging on for dear life and viewing nothing but the back of my tightly closed eye lids.
Beth is kidnapping me soon because she wants a friend with her while she drives to Alliance to pick up some tickets
Have a happy day!
The Aunt of his that we're going to see lives in Rock Hill. We were going to go to Folly Beach while we were there, but his parents decided it wasn't in the budget to stay just one night at one of the hotels on the beach. I'm not sure exactly what we're doing. Bobby mentioned that his aunt set up a tour for us of some Nascar track thing that's there? His family doesn't seem to be racing fans, so that's interesting. I'll have fun regardless of what we do. I'll just be happy to not be at work, to be out of ohio, to be with him.
I'm really trying to not think about it though. I'm anxious! And of course I mentioned to my dad that I'm leaving Wednesday and he gets this look on his face and he's like "What?". "I told you dad. I told you months ago". He goes "Well, I don't remember that". I just shake my head and remind him that I'm going to SC with Bobby andhisparents" and he missed that last part. He goes "JUST YOU AND BOBBY?" and he has his angry face on.
First of all, no. But if I did want to take a vacation with my boyfriend, I would. Because I'm an adult. And I can do so. Sometimes though, it makes me laugh when he gets like that. I've never really been ruled over with an iron fist before, so when my dad does act protective and strict, it amuses me more than anything. It just reminds me that he cares.
Have to finish my coffee... then it's time for Zumba.
in the wake of the coming horror, (my french test tomorrow, *mono) this seems overwhelmingly appropriate some how.
gir of invader zim. the doom song.
enjoy.
* to clear this up for certain people, i am not suggesting I already HAVE mono, but that the possibility exists that I may get it.
