Four words...
Snakes on a plane.
Obviously, if you haven't already seen it, you need to go out and see this movie right now. It is arguably the best movie of our time - for it is so bad that it is amazing. See it. Because I told you to.
I'm still in DC. And Phillip is listening to the Snakes on a Plane song over and over again. It's driving me nuts, but, sadly, I still love him. I've spent the last few days waking up unreasonably early and poking Phillip awake annoyingly so that he can share my pain of waking up early. Then, we lay around and do nothing until we inevitably have to get ready, which is nearly impossible in his shoe-box of an apartment. It's been really nice to spend all this time with him because we never really got to spend a lot of one-on-one time together. It really makes me appreciate our relationship and gives me faith that, if we want to, we can make it work. Anyway, we've been spending our days exploring the city, doing non-touristy things because neither of us want to be "that guy/girl". In fact, today, when we were people watching at the Capitol we saw this old, European guy with tube socks, shorts, a water misting fan, and a fanny pack around his waist. It made me laugh for hours, mostly because you lose the security you gain with fanny packs when you wear them backwards like this poor, unsuspecting visitor was. He will certainly be unknowingly mugged.
We went shopping this morning where Phillip bought me two pairs of amazingly beautiful earrings for our anniversary. Then we ate two bowls full of orgasmic fruit sorbet. We walked around a bit after that, and eventually came home. We've been eating in too which makes my stay feel incredibly homey and I could really see us together. Eating dinner at the table, cleaning up, doing laundry...you know, home-like things. I'm sad because tomorrow is my last full day here, and I really don't want to tell him good-bye. I know it won't be long before I see him again, but I don't like being without him. Sorry to be so cheesy, you guys know how I get about these things, but this time it really is different.
I would tell you I swear, but you wouldn't believe me anyway, so I guess you will just have to wait and see.
