On that note, why don't I take the time to re-cap this amazing weekend I had with Anthony? I drove down Saturday and got there in pretty good time! Only 4 hours and 15 min! That's a record time! Okay, maybe I did speed a little but shhh, don't tell my parents! As soon as I walked in of course Anthony was still asleep since he practically gets absolutely no sleep from his night shifts! After waking the sleepyhead up we had lunch with his parents and aunt that he has never met! Anthony's dad had his sister come visit after 19 years of not seeing each other. How crazy is that?! She drove with her husband all the way from Mississippi! It was nice for Anthony to meet and chat with her since he hardly knows anyone from his dad's side of the family!
After lunch we finally got some a little alone time. We went to the mall for a little to walk off our food and just look around. After a good hour we headed back to his house and just hung out the rest of the night. I was inside with his mother and aunt while he was outside with his dad and uncle. The next day after sleeping in till nearly 12 we got up and got some lunch at, surprise surprise, WingStop!
Tons of wings later, we made our way to Canyon Lake with his softball team he plays with! I'm not much of a lake kinda gal but let me tell you I had the best time! Bud Light Lime-A-Rita's, good company, my love, and a beautiful day was just what I needed! We even stayed in a cute little cabin! Only down side is that Ant and I had to squeeze on top of a bunk bed but by later that night I could care less where I slept! The next morning, or should I say afternoon, we made our way down to the little camp sight where everyone was cooking out burgers and hot dogs and we even squeezed in a little sand volleyball! My team totally beat Ant's team but I bet if you asked him he'd deny it. Men and their pride ;)
After we ate we made it back to his house and took much needed showers and went out for our last dinner together at none other than Pericos, a mexican restaurant of course followed by a little time watching the Heat vs Celtics game. We were exhausted and all I wanted to do was be in his arms and go to sleep and thats just what I did. I was definitely not looking forward to the next morning. I felt like the weekend went by too fast and I didn't want it to end. Let's just say when morning came around I was an emotional wreck and I couldn't stop crying the whole drive home. I know that I'll see him soon though. The main key is to stay optimistic through this whole process of being long distant. Much easier said than done hands down but I try my hardest to look at the positives in this situation.
Now here I am on a rainy Wednesday night, tired and a little lonely. Thank God for blogging. It's the perfect type of therapy and it definitely does the trick and gets my head clear and out of the dumps. Happy Hump Night Y'all!
