"...just the way you look tonight." - Frank Sinatra
I think everyone and their brother has IMed me or emailed me to see how last night went. LOL
Honestly, I can truly say that last night was wonderful, even better than I could have imagined. Of course, any time I spend with Emily is great in my book. But here's the basic run down. I picked her up at her house around 5:30 and surprised her with a dozen roses. She mentioned that she had never "really" gotten flowers before and I wanted to do something special for her right off the bat (it all goes back to how I like to make her smile). When I saw her, I went breathless; she was truly stunning. After that we left for dinner and I started playing the CD that I burned for her (songs that make me think of her and some others that I just thought she'd like). As I was driving, she asked me where I was taking her for dinner (I hadn't told her because I wanted it to be a surprise) and I told her that I'd tell her if she guessed it. Right off the bat she guessed "Biaggi's." I swear, me and this girl are connected at the brain! Of course, she was right. After a great dinner we had some time to kill so I took her to the station to give her the grand tour. It turns out that she's a big fan of Z94.1 (one of our stations) and she seemed really excited to see their studio and to meet Buster. If only Doc West had been there. After we hung out for a while we went to the Embassy for the concert by the Fort Wayne Philharmonic. Now that was music! I enjoyed that very much. After that we went to one of Em's friends house and watched a movie with them. After that we called it a night.
I don't remember if I mentioned it before but I wrote a poem for Emily and I had planned to read it to her last night. After talking to her some during intermission of the Philarmonic concert, I decided that last night wasn't the right time for it. Based on what she told me, she's not quite ready to hear what I have to say in it, which is fine with me. After I dropped her off and came home we talked some online and basically we're both experiencing feelings that we've never had before and, even though I've somewhat tried to hide it on my end, we're both kind of scared. So we decided that we want to continue down this path, take things a day and a step at a time and just see what happens.
Today we were talking a bit (it seems like everytime we have a conversation, something "deep" comes up LOL) and we were talking about how things have worked out lately. Like, we both thing that something has brought us together. She said that she felt drawn to talk to me and after our first conversation she knew that there was something there (as did I). I know the first time I met her and all... well,I was just blown away. I was talking to her about how it worked out for me to come to Fort Wayne. Originally I was supposed to come here to do nights but that didn't work out for various reasons. About a month later, I was offered the afternoon gig. I was meant to come to Fort Wayne. I mean, of all the places I could have gone, all the gigs I could have taken (trust me, I had a few irons in the fire and I had options), I decided on Fort Wayne. God led me here for a reason. Honestly, I'm beginning to think that that reason very well could have been Emily. As I stated above, I'm feeling things with her that I've never felt before. I'm wanting to do and say things that I've never wanted to do or say before. It's got me thinking. I really like where things are heading and I eagerly await to see what happens next and to see where this path takes me.
I just can't say enough about her... she's just wonderful. I don't have the words to describe how I feel when I think about her, hear her voice, see her, touch her, whatever. This all just feels incredably right, honestly more right than anything in the past.
Oh, I almost forgot LOL. During our conversation I asked her when her birthday was she told me to guess. The hints she gave me were that the month was an even number in th early part of the year and the day was an even number in the early part of the month. For some reason I immediately thought February 8th. I was extremely close! February 10th is her birthday. Again, me and Em are connected at the brain! I think we both got a nice chuckle out of that; I know I did!
As for what I did today, I just took it easy for he most part. I went up to the station to do some things and then I came home and tried to take a nap. The freakin' illegals living above me had what sounded like 20 kids up there and they were making all kinds of noise. Needless to say, I didn't get much of a nap. So I just laid in bed for a while, trying to relax a little and I did some thinking (as if I had to tell you what/who was on my mind). After I got up I went to Starbucks (Em got kind of mad when I told her that because she "hearts Starbucks to the moon and back" hehe) and went to the grocery to get the ingrediants to make Taco soup (thanks for the recipe, Mary K.!). It turned out really good! I was kind of proud of myself. Aside from that, I just kindda sat on my arse and bummed around. Nothing wrong with having a down day every now and then.
With that, I'm going to bed. Gotta dream about swinging from a vine in the jungle. :-)
