Hey guys. It's been almost a month since I posted, so I figured I'd try to update everyone.
Christmas was good, besides the fact that my flight to Kansas City was cancelled due to their blizzard. Needless to say, I was severely bummed. They cancelled it before I had left for the airport or anything, and I was able to get a flight for the next day without an upcharge, but I was still upset. I just got so used to the idea that I was going to see him THAT NIGHT that it was kind of a blow when I realized I wasn't going to.
It snowed the day after in Milwaukee, but we got down to the airport fine. They had oversold the flight I was supposed to go on (of course) and were offering money and a later flight to people who were willing to give up their seat. I got one of the last three seats on the plane. Whew!
Matt's parents picked me up at the airport in KC, considering I got in around three and Matt had to work until four, then make the over an hour drive up to the airport. It started snowing pretty bad in KC when I got there, so I was lucky that I got a flight, since later ones may have been cancelled. I love his parents, they're so funny and nice and sweet to me. We stopped at Cabela's to get snow boots for the doggie (haha) and then stopped at Sonic on the way home. Matt, that adorable man, kept calling and texting, wondering how close we were to his apartment. It seemed like so long since I had seen him, I could not WAIT to get there and give him the biggest hug and kiss. Since it was snowing, we had to drive really slowly, and so we finally got there around seven. It was so great to see him again!!
The visit went well. On Sunday, as usual, we went to his parents' house to hang out. This time was even more fun, because Matt's oldest sister Jenny and her husband and three boys were in town from St. Louis for Christmas. I had been talking to Jenny through FB for a couple months and was excited to meet her. Her husband and kids are so great, too. Her youngest Kenny, who is five, was just the sweetest little thing. He cozied up to me really quickly, and we had a great day.
Other than that, we spent the rest of the time just hanging out and laying low. I love that, just relaxing with each other and enjoying each other's company. Since then, too, our relationship has been better. We made a New Years' resolution with each other to try super hard not to fight, and to be respectful and considerate of each other. So far, so good. I go again for a visit at the end of this month, he comes here in Feb, and then March, hopefully, is when the BIG MOVE happens! He's nervous, and so am I, but every day he's feeling better about it. As soon as we can find him a job up here, I think he'll be rearing to go even more.
I think it's time that I delete Matt's ex-ife Jessica from my FB friends. Why do I have her on there? Good question, Matt doesn't even have her on there anymore. Her status updates and her profile just get under my skin. Sure, if I didn't have the negative connotation with her that I do, it probably wouldn't bother me, but I can't change it. She's so annoying, and I hate her for what she did to Matt. I suppose, in a way, I should be glad she did it, because now he's mine, but she was horrible to him. She was having a little back-and-forth conversation on one of her status with one of her random FB friends. The guy asked her what was new, and she wrote, "Quit teaching, got divorced, working at Gamestop, and loving life." For some reason, that really bothered me and made me hate her even more. I think I equated the "got divorced" thing with the "loving life," which made me want to hit her in the face. Getting divorced isn't a good thing, and especially not from someone like Matt. I just really dislike her.
Sorry for the rant, I just saw that now and wanted to get that off my chest. I hope everyone's having a great winter...we're getting buried here with the snow...we're actually in the midst of a storm as I write this.
