Just Another Day In Paradise

One week until the engagement party and for now, at least, there's not much for me to plan. In the meantime, life goes on.

Got home yesterday from a long day at work and Gavin had beautiful flowers waiting for me with a sweet card to say he loves me. The thoughtfulness of his surprise put me in the best mood! It was a great way to start my weekend!

I decided to put the flowers on the window sill in my bedroom where they could get the most sunlight and as I did I noticed there was a black bug crawling up my wall. Super gross. Lucky for me, I have the worlds best bug smoosher that I could call to save me... but before he got in the room I noticed another one not far below the first bug. Oh, and a little to the left were two more. I started to freak out as I noticed there were about a dozen of these nasty critters crawling up my wall and ACROSS MY CEILING! I called my mom before marching over to the leasing office. Apparently the bugs are common in the complex and don't bite and they'll be out in two weeks to spray for them. In the mean time I'd have to spray myself- but of course, its not actually me spraying, its my knight and shinning armor spraying and trying not to laugh at my grossed-outted-ness.

I took Joe to my parents so it'd be safe to spray the stuff and picked up my moms golf clubs to go to a driving range with Gavin and his brother. We had papers that we had to drop off in Southlake and were running over an hour behind on that and decided to drive through Whataburger on our way. Unforunately at Whataburger Gavin's car overheated and we ended up having to take his car to a shop for the night. Fortunately, there was some traffic which gave Gavin and I time to enjoy our Whataburger in the car shop's parking lot until my dad picked us up.

Later we hit golf balls with his brother before calling it a night. Gavin did a touch up of my room for me so that I could feel good about sleeping in my apartment. Luckily, there were no bugs left when I crawled into bed and my flowers still looked amazing even without the sun coming in.

All and all it was a pretty good regular ol' day.
