Nothing really new to report here. W called me at about 5pm while I was driving back from my mini-business trip, to find out how my presentation had gone (HUGE sale -- cha-ching! :)) , and sounded slightly more loving than usual. When I walked in the door, she was frantically preparing dinner for the family, and waited for me to seek her out for our usual evening peck hello. I was hoping for something at least SLIGHTLY more meaningful, but it was the same.
Later, before leaving for a baseball Board meeting, I had to do the damned-near-trip-her-up-to-get-her-to-stop thing, and pulled her into me for a long and strong hug. I let a strong kiss linger on her forehead, and told her "I love you." and "You do know that, don't you?" She nodded yes, held on tight for a good minute, and I couldn't really tell if she said "I love you too."
The rest of our evening has been as it usually is, and right now she's reading a Victoria Secret catalog on the couch across from me as I type this. It's very difficult to get any "alone" time, as we not only have our four kids in the house tonite, but also D18's BFF is sleeping over.
Any more meaning convo will have to wait.
I don't think she ever opened my follow-up e-mail today, where I basically said "screw that" and I went first and laid my love for her on the line. I'm extremely anxious (and starting to feel impending doom) about how she is going to answer that. Because noticeably absent in her first two e-mails are ANY words of "I love you," and for the past two days, I can't for the life of me find her cell phone.
