Aaron David Harris.

Things I've learned about Aaron (pre-move in date):
He doesn't like to do dishes.
He won't go in public in gym shorts, and doesn't think it's "appropriate" if I go to Wal-Mart in pj pants -- even if it's ONLY to pick up ONE THING.
He's very good at finances and budgeting.
He doesn't make the bed.
He always likes to hold my hand.
He will rub my feet anytime I ask him.
He doesn't mind when I don't shave my legs.
He's unexpectedly has a lot in common with my dad.
He likes to eat shrimp tails.
He has the absolute cutest smirk.
He talks to pets like they are human being.
He's not exactly open about his feelings.
He has the best 5 o'clock shadow.
He likes the most disgusting horror movies ever created.
He likes to drive on road trips and when I'm fed up with crazy Shreveport drivers.
He's almost as stubborn as I am.
Have I mentioned that he doesn't like to do the dishes?


And he makes me laugh all the time.

done.

I've almost had it with ANTM. Especially Tyra.

free fun

Aaron and I planned to see King Tut in Dallas last Sunday. We got really excited about it. Budgeted for it ... a little. Sunday came. We got up early and were dressed and ready to go by 9:15 a.m. I got online to check for directions, and I noticed something about buying tickets early. Turns out you can't buy tickets the same day.

We were sad for a second, and then decided to make the most of the beautiful Sunday in Shreveport.

After lunch with his parents, we headed to Riverfront Park where Aaron made me DEFY THE LAW by jumping a fence. We were almost blown away by the wind.


Then azaleas exploded all around Aaron.


And we made friends with a catfish.



Then we found some local celebrities outside the Municipal Auditorium.



After making all those friends, we took a stroll at Norton Art Gallery.


Then we took a drive around Cross Lake and had a snack (guacamole of course) at Cantina Laredo on the porch. Perfect day.

King Tut will just have to wait for a few weeks.

it's official

I'm going to move in with Aaron.

I'M MOVING IN!!!

I told my dad today. It was a very short convo. I think he needs some time to process it. I am extremely relieved.

Aaron and I have been talking about decorating, furniture, and how Aaron needs to learn to pick up clothes off the floor and not leave beard hair in the sink. And I need to learn that if dishes don't get done 2.5 seconds after dinner, IT WILL BE OK!

I'm sure there will be lots of adjustments. But I am very excited. I've never lived with a boy, let alone a boyfriend. I've done lots of thinking about it. It wasn't a decision I took lightly.

I move in the second weekend in May, and I can't wait to tell you all about it.
