David and I have officially been dating for a year, a year and a half if you start counting from the day we met. our anniversary was this friday and we celebrated by doing the very things we did on our first date, going to a Korean BBQ restaurant then the Flatiron Lounge for fancy 1890's style cocktails. We ate red meat and toasted to many more rotations around the sun together... in my superstitious brain i fear that acknowledging how well things are going will lead directly to everything falling apart, at the same time there has to be an element of the universe i can be grateful towards, for all the good times so far.
We both like surprises, so we had no idea that we would essentially make each other the same drawing:
this one is from him:
i like how sexy he draws me!
this one is from me:
both drawings are in reference to out favorite tiki bar
Otto's Shrunken Head. my drawing is from a specific incident where one night, a year ago we finally realized that we would either remain great friends or become something more. His relationship with Bree ended a few weeks prior and my relationship with Will was about to crash and burn, which i had a feeling would happen but, didn't happen till the following day. we made a drunken pact that if both of us were single over the weekend we would hook up, then he fell into my lap and told me he loved me...as a friend, and i replied in kind. then we took this picture:
the following day Will broke up with me, i told him where he could shove it and during the break-up i texted David to come on over...and now you know the rest of the story.
