vows
It was a Saturday on a saturday in april. i woke up super nervous and excited. I'm taking out Kait and I want to make a good impression. But first I had to play basketball with Prem and Ashwin and workout my hangover. As I'm playing basketball with Prem and Ashwin I explain to them my enthusiasm for the evenings plan. I was taking Kait out to amoeba to find the DVDs for my favorite TV show ever, Are You Afraid of the Dark. I explaim my plans for our first (unoffical) date, we'll drive an hour to amoeba, look for the show, then drive an hour back. That was it, that was the big date I had planned. They looked at me with bewilderment like I was completely insane. A first date composed of mostly driving and shopping for a 90s NICK show that nobody watches anymore? Was I crazy. But I figured the activities were not as important as the company, and I wanted to get to know Kait. So this could be a complete disaster but if it wasnt then i would know I had found someone who's companionship I appreciated.
We met for coffee at its a grind first and both came to the akward realization that neither of us wanted coffee - we were already off to a great start. We go in my car and we are off to hollywood. As I drive we begin to talk and all of my concerns quickly dissipate, i'm having one of the best conversation of my life. I'm instantly at ease as I realize i've made the kind of connection with someone thats usually only made when you have known someone your whole life. The feeling I had on the ride to amoeba that day was the best in my life at that point - it was like the first time i heard the cardigans or watching 10 things i hate about you - but a 1000 times better because I havent heard my favorite cd or movie - i just realized i met my favorite person. that day at amoeba we didnt find are you afriad of the dark dvds but we found eachother and a started a bond that continues to this day.
kait, you've been by my side through my best and worse, my happiest and most upset, my most sober and drunk no matter what i'm feeling or my mood you've always been there for me. In the last 8 years we've made the best memories of my life - our first kiss in the parking lot of lee club apartments, roller derby games, concerts, watching cheesy 80s horror movies, random trips, disneyland, and of course we finally found those are you afraid of the dark dvds and have plenty of marathons watching them. We have grown together in those years for the better. When we met i really hated cats, and now i only sort of hate cats. But one of my favorite things is to see you with our pets. the love, compassion, and care you give to gin, pepper, ollie, and minkus RIP is the most beautiful thing and its the same love, compassion and care that you share with me.
I promose to give you all my love and care as you've given me throughout the years. one of the reasons our relationship is so strong is the communication we have with each other. anytime there is a problem we can always count on each other to talk through it and be stronger afterwards. I promise to always listen to you and hear what you have to say - even when you come home to talk about a new cat you met and want to adopt. There would be no accomplishment greater or that would make me more proud than to be a great husband and one day father to our kids. and although i might not always be the best i can be, i'll always put you and our family first - yes even over monday night raw. we're going to spend the rest of our lives together and i cant wait more years of all those things we enjoy like concerts, cupcakes, disneyland, traveling, horror movies, ect and what i'm most excited for are the new moments and experiences we have yet to have like traveling to new places and having kids. These last eight years have been the best of my life and I can't wait to share the rest of my years with you.
