One decade ago today, PDub and I had our first date. At the age of 16, I was officially dating an older man (only by one year), and that first date couldn't have been more perfect! The shaggy-haired, blonde boy picked me up in his green 1996 Gran Prix, took me to his house where we proceeded to watch A Few Good Men; he then gave me a dozen red roses (what what!), and returned me home.
From that day on, I have had a best friend by my side to hold me when I cry, to laugh when I laugh (most of the time), to stand his ground when I am wrong, to have crazy adventures with, and to pass each day together side-by-side. We have struggled through divorces, final exams, long-distance, and bad food, and we have celebrated through graduations, weddings, vacations, and good food. Time hasn't been more real than when I am with him. During those moments, we truly live life to its fullest and only regret the ticking clock that will end our time together one day. Life is brief but love is forever. Thank you for giving me the greatest gift, PDub!
I am living my happily ever after......
See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sunrise from a tropic isle
Just remember darling all the while
You belong to me
See the market place in old Algier
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me
I'd be so alone without you
Maybe you'd be lonesome too and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me
I'd be so alone without you
Maybe you'd be lonesome too and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me
