The Best Surprise Ever

One night last week, while NYEBoy and I were laying down, I had mentioned that I wanted to get some type of jewelry with the September birthstone. I was debating on a necklace or a ring with three stones. I didn't have anything specifically decided, even though I was window shopping online.

Well, I had a horrible day yesterday. I crashed last night and slept for twelve hours. I'd feel bad about that, except, I knew my body needed that long rest.

When I woke up, NYEBoy asked if I wanted something for lunch. I told him he could just run to Subway since it was literally, around the corner. I was online doing something, but suddenly realized an hour had passed. I always get annoyed when he offers to get something for me to eat, but eats first and I end up waiting two hours.

I started feeling sick so I tried calling him while I laid down. My blood was boiling with every unanswered call. So, I did what ever psycho girlfriend does, I sent a few mean text messages.

When he got home, he laid the subway bag on the table and I just laid there. Annoyed and feeling sick.

"Thanks for taking so long. I wasn't hungry or anything."

"Sorry. I drove around trying to figure out what I wanted, but I ended up getting Subway too. The line was long when I got there."

I just lay there annoyed. From my vantage point, I see he got the wrong chips.

"You got the wrong chips. Thanks. I wasn't craving them or anything."

Sigh. "Sorry"

I just lay there annoyed some more.

"Are you not going to eat?"

"I will."

"Really? You're not going to eat?"

"I said I was." ::sits up:: "Oh, never mind, you got the right chips." (I'm too good to say sorry.)

My brother walks in the living room as we're eating.

"She said I got the wrong chips, then she said never mind they were the right ones."

My brother laughed. They like to tag team me. I'm never right in a house with two men. Even when I really ~am~ right.

We continue eating our food and my brother goes to lay down again because he wasn't feeling very well.

I asked for one cookie if it wasn't burnt, but when I looked at the bag, I noticed it looked like it had a bunch in there. {Cue: Psycho girlfriend, again} I just know there is going to be several cookies in that bag, so I grab it all armed and ready to bitch about wasting money on cookies no one is going to eat.

But, I didn't find a bag stuffed with cookies, I found a red heart box.

"What is this?"

"I don't know."

"Well, did you get it for me or did you grab the subway guy's girlfriends bag?"

"Really? Are you fucking kidding me?"

"Geez, calm down, I was just asking. You never know."

Inside, was this:



[September's birthstone: the Blue Sapphire]

It wasn't what I had in mind, but it is what he had in his mind. And I love it.

Just as much as I would have loved our baby.
