Well....hmmmm. I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday. The two on the left, the top one had just started hurting and the bottom one was so impacted it never would have shown up on it's own. I was SO nervous but Brian was a sweetheart. He came over before I had to go and helped take my mind off it all. He held my hand and said everything would be fine. He went with me to the doctor's office and kept my mind off my teeth. I've never even given blood before (I've always been too light.) so the IV needle freaked me out a bit...for three seconds. The next thing I remembered was my mom giving me my glasses and asking how I felt. I was loopy for hours from the drugs they knocked my out with. Brian and mom helped me to the car (I, in my doped-up state, asked to drive home...so I am told.) At home, Brian got me to my couch where he held my hand and treated me like a princess until I fell asleep watching DarkWing Duck. Then he sat and watched over me for about three hours, playing his guitar quietly on the other side of the room and coming over every so often to give me a little kiss and ask if I needed anything. He teased me about how cute I was being from the anesthesia and made sure I was comfortable. I honestly believe he is the sweetest person alive. He left for only a few hours and did some supermarket shopping for my mom (he got my favorite beverage, Arizona Green Tea!) and other such things. I was up and around when he got back and he spent the entire evening hanging around my house, playing with my computer, watching Happy Gilmore and playing Nintendo with me. He babied me all day and it was wonderful. He still has to get his wisdom teeth pulled sometime and I plan to be there for him the way he was there for me. I'll make him chocolate milkshakes and make sure the blanket stays over his toes. It's the least I can do for him, considering how sweet he's been to me.

Today was good....I overslept (codine makes you TIRED!) and Jos came over in the afternoon. She came bearing gifts....a whole stack of pictures from New Year's Eve and Brian's birthday (Dec 26th). Those, of course, had some incredibly good pictures of Brian on a special photogenic AND sexy day. I now have some nice pictures of Brian and I, both looking okay. My hair was road-cone orange, but there have been worse pictures taken! Brian came over after that and then Jos and I got all snazzy, made Brian drive us to the mall, and got our pictures taken at Picture People in the mall. That was fun and after she ate dinner at her house she came back to my house, we all got pizza (My family, Brian, Joslyn and I). I actually had meat on my pizza! Good-bye vegetarian....hello healthy! I'm sick of being underweight, I'm going to eat right and get healthy...and greasy, fatty pizza is the place to start! BOO-YAH!!!!!

Jos, Brian, and I went out to Centerport on the North shore and saw the Pink Floyd's The Wall laser-light show at the Vanderbilt planetarium...I had great trouble staying awake as it is the 5th time I have seen the show and codine makes you TIRED! After dropping Joslyn off, Brian and I met up with Brian's good friend Rick...a generally nice and pretty funny guy. The three of us played pool at River City Billiards until 2:30am....then called it a night. Brian and I talked online for a few hours but resisted the urge to call each other. He's such a darling...I want to savor every moment of our relationship. The first time we went out I was in such a rush, never wanted to waste time talking when we could be running off somewhere to do something....now I can sit and just listen to him for hours and be happier about it than Christmas. I'm still muddling through the infatuation stage of this relationship but I may as well enjoy it while it lasts. Being infatuated with someone is the most lovely feeling when you KNOW you're infatuated and you don't classify it as love as much as you want to. It's a very logical, healthy feeling.

Oh, by the way.....like my new background? I made it myself. Isn't it pretty?
