So Mike and I have this pact that whenever one of us asks “What are you thinking?” you have to honestly respond with just that: what you were thinking.
He just popped over to my house with two apple pies from McDonald’s, one for me and one for him. I haven’t gotten to mine yet, although his had been gobbled down.
So when I asked him, “What are you thinking?” he responded with a deep question: Are you going to eat your apple pie?
So about that blog about me not being engaged … I actually wrote that roughly one month ago-when I wasn’t engaged-and scheduled it to post in the future. Unfortunately, I posted it a bit too far in the future.
Ooops.
A big thanks to our dear, worried friends who alerted me to the error. We are in fact engaged. And we’re both pretty darn stoked.
OK, so first of all, Mike and I are NOT engaged!
However, we’re talking more about wedding stuff, so I went ahead and took a peek at TheKnot.com. If you want to do anything on their site, you have to register for it, so register I did.
And, according to the homepage, Mike and I have 189 to-dos, 50 of which are “overdue.”
I’m guessing that “propose” is one of those 50.
Mike was just sitting behind me with one of those quick lighter things.
“Whoa!” he says.
Worried that he’d just attempted to light me on fire, I whip around. Turns out I was safe.
But about 47 of his arm hairs didn’t survive the torch.
I’m making good use of the great natural lighting homemade table over at Mike’s house this afternoon, even though he’s still at work.
Just decided I was hungry, so I went to his cabinet and grabbed the fake (aka generic) Wheat Thins. And I finished them … granted there were only four and a half crackers in there, not including crumbs.
Not sure yet what the repercussions will be. On principle, I violated one of the key statutes of an open-door policy. In reality, I only ate four and a half crackers.
Mike: Those dead flowers look nice.
Courtney: Yeah.
Mike: I’m going to light them on fire.
