Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you’re beside me and look how far we’ve come
So far, we are so close.

I find my assurance in the most unlikely places in our relationship, like in our fights. I mean, as much as I like being hugged, kissed, and told that I am loved, there is only so much they can prove meaningful on their own, you know? It's when we get into an argument when all of what we have is thrown onto a scale and it's like, "So, how much do you really love me now?"
And you usually prove that you really do love me.
. . .
Note: I'm not suggesting that couples should fight all the time- that's stupid. I just suppose (juxtapose, lol) that the occasional friction wouldn't hurt, much.

I'm going to the gym with my sister today. I think my favorite part about hitting Fitness First is the Astro TV channels you can plug into and the free-flow of soft drinks at the coffee corner. The last time I expressed this out loud, Karlyn smacked me on my chicken wings (def. 1. the wing of a chicken, 2. the flabby arm of a woman) and said that I was defeating the entire purpose of visiting the gym. :(
I think there's HIMYM showing today!

One night, I came back home, took off my shoes, and almost wiped my foot on the rug on the floor. Just almost, because I found out in the nick of time that the rug was, in fact, Teddy. That's when I knew I really, really needed to take that dog to the groomers. He looks like the end of a dirty mop, especially when he lies down on his little belly. I'm going with Team Teddy's head cheerleader, Delaney, tomorrow to the pet parlor. I hope they're open! Poor Theodore.* * *

Yes, this is a light and fluffy post. I'm starting my day with this update, so forgive me for not charging through my sleepiness by writing a thought-provoking, emotion-evoking piece. I'm not really at my most inspirational this early.
In any case, good morning, everybody! Enjoy breakfast. :)

Well you could always...eat inspiration for breakfast. Got a nice ring to it doesn't it? (http://thinksimplenow.com/motivation/how-to-wake-up-inspired/)
I get what you mean about the fights. Mention or suggested something to that to you the other day over pancakes, to which you responded with a long stare and a
"Karl, we've been fighting for three years, do you really want to go back to that?"
*note - that quote is about, 80% accurate. I paraphrased.
Dude.
I write longer in comments than I do in my own blogposts. what is wrong with me.
Head cheerleader. I didn't get the memo. WHERE'S MY MINISKIRTS AND POMPOMS?
Karlyn- Yeah, it does. :) I'm reading it now.
I remember that conversation! We were talking about all our friends whom we've had fights with before, and the ones that were too hard to get into any with cos they're just too nice like that. And then later you asked, "How come we never fight?" to which I replied with what you said I did, haha.
I know, right! It's so much easier to say things in conversation form.
Delaney- HAHAHA! ILYDOSM. Crazy girl, you haven't picked your team colors yet!
Can it be gold, black, and red? I've always wanted to wear one of those fluffy things.
