I Procrastinated but I Have Pictures

I was going to write a third installment of “How to Survive Without the Internet,” but I don’t feel like it anymore.  I have the internet now.  My anger has left the building.  

Also my lovely boyfriend, the subject of the 3rd installment, and I got in a fight & made up since the story happened.  So it seems like the inspiration for the story has also left.  

Let that be a lesson for Jewel & all of you procrastinaters -- if you feel like telling a story, tell it right then.  If you wait, the story will not wait with you.  

I will mention this one very touching moment.  He sang to me. 

His family brought out the karaoke.  Not just any old karaoke -- old school karaoke.  They were singing Al Green, Teddy Pendergrass, Marvin Gaye, Cat Stevens and B.B. King (B.B. King style, with an old black man & a raspy voice).  They were all fantastic.

He sang Barry White’s “You’re My First, My Last, My Everything.”  Then he didn’t stop singing.  Song after song after song.  That lovely boy can’t carry a tune very well.  But his charming & crazy personality carried his performance. 

It was the sweetest thing he’s ever done for me.  

And now pictures to make up for my lack of storytelling & my lack of pictures for the last several posts.

 

I really wish this picture wasn't blurry cause I love it. 

 

 

His dad & uncle.  They talk & walk EXACTLY the same.  This was the kind of laughter I saw all night.

 

Dad-to-be, uncle-to-be, & husband-to-be.  Sometimes people think they're all brothers.

 

He took me to visit a friend on a farm.  Don't remember ever standing so close to cows.

 

I like to call this one Bessie.

 

 

Just a tree I liked on the way.

 

Classic Marcus face.  I promise he really is happy because he's about to go hunting.

 

The End. 

Stay tuned next time for the 15 reasons I'm not liking being pregnant.  Don't worry, I've already written it, so it will actually happen this time.
