The guy who braves below freezing temps to pick up takeout from his favorite restaurant for the three of us to enjoy. The guy who has never seen a single episode of 24 and is willing to confront my Keifer fantasy and enjoy it with me - and who really didn't mind that it didn't happen last night. The guy who doesn't sigh or become ruffled when the kids need my attention. The guy who happily snuggles up for an episode of South Park with Alex when my friend John calls me from Alaska. The guy who gets tears in his eyes when I mention Hannah. The guy who shared the message from a Beck song: Take your heart off the shelf, it's worth it. The guy who wonders aloud if *this* should be considered a date, as he's not taking me out anywhere nor spending money on minutiae (resounding response: If we're having fun, it's a date!). The guy who loves my cat and happily reminds me how much she loves me. The guy who received my ATC Valentines with the very appreciation I was shooting for!
The guy who sends text messages like this:
I enjoyed myself thoroughly last night; I can't wait until the next time! The phone in the glue - Elizabethtown. It was wonderful. Thank you.
Bon Soir, mme. How was Keifer? Hope you three had a warm, safe day :)
Our parallels are remarkable; I slept late after realizing I don't have class on Tues... Such lovely, delicious slack.
I want to eat more fatty foods and hibernate in your warm bedroom for the rest of the winter :)
The messages echo the film the other night :) (referring to E-town conversation between Kirstin and Orlando)
Thank you for the pleasure of your company :)
I'm sorry... Too much to drink, smell like smoke... rare for me. This is twice now- too much to drink while talking to you- I must re-examine! (I responded: rare for me, too... it generally takes much longer before I drive men to drink!)
I'm sorry... I'm such a lightweight... I just didn't want to be 'that guy' coming over late after beers. How was the film?
Life is good. Sleep thee well, m'lady.
R'eves plaisants, mme.
Confession time: you made a very special appearance in last night's dream... Nothing freaky, I promise ;)
I just want to say that you & H are absolutely wonderful; it's amazing to watch the two of you interact... Sleep in peace tonight :)
Why, pray tell, are you up so early? Some handsome young man keeping you occupied? ;)
Sleep well, mon cheri :) I haven't been someone's valentine in yeeears. Thanks 4 the early morning feel good!
Life IS good. Many thanks for the challah fr. toast... Amazing!!
I like beginnings, esp. new ones ;)
Pierogies, dolmas, borscht and meat on a stick. And Jack on the teevee. (And you! I responded)
A kiss at the door! I've been walking on air all morning and I can't imagine a more noble gift than that feeling. Thank you so much, D.
I'm so sorry, I just remembered what time it actually is. Grab Patches and go back to sleep. Another fantastic dream last night! (6:06 this morning)
...so much guilt. I've robbed you both of sleep. I directed my 1st show today :D
I'd love to show you sometime :D

Hey, I saw him first!
And for that, dear sir, I am eternally grateful... ♥ ♥ ♥
what a wonderfully sappy, awesome post! Has me grinning.
he sounds like a keeper! does he also look really hot without a shirt? (Gary's still blushing)
Classic Simpsons episode! One year, E and I each reproduced that valentine for each other (unbeknownst to the other). His was hand-drawn and mine was a computer card with a happy face carefully pasted to the front of the engine.
Send your updates!!! I'm dying here!
I've not had the opportunity to see him shirtless... doesn't matter, NO ONE can take Gary's place on that Sexy Chest list I've got goin ::bg::

Hey Mel, Thanks! :) Further foreshadowing...
