Just found out that OW has a kid!!

[Ophelia]

Talk about a small world. My W and I had our wedding outdoors in a beautiful woodland setting, an amphitheater behind a church. I kid you not, it looked just like the wedding scene at the end of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. (W had her hair done up similar to Maid Marion's too.)

And guess whose music was our wedding theme song? You guessed it -- BA's "Everything I Do."

That sounds absolutely gorgeous, NoCodeBlues!

Speaking of Everything I Do, guess what was on the radio when it woke me up the day after the night when I got H's email! I hit the snooze button a few times, and then thought, "Well I'm basically awake now, but I'll hit it one more time anyway," and when it came on that last time, it was right in the middle of the song.

Good for you. I always believed prayers and positive thinking attracts emanates good vibes so the world around you notice it and send you good vibes right back.

I have to say, my mood over the last couple of days has been much improved. The night I got the email, I was actually grinning to myself as I was lying in bed, trying to get to sleep. I have to keep reminding myself that....
a) He could still always cancel at the last moment.
b) It doesn't really mean much, just that he's coming over for maybe an hour to show me some holiday photos.
c) He might use the opportunity of seeing me to bring up the subject of D.

But then there are times when I just can't stop smiling like a crazy person, and my heartbeat quickens, and I get that warm fuzzy feeling in my tummy...just thinking about seeing him. I've gotta remember to not appear too eager and/or flustered when he's here.

Anyway, I replied to his email, saying that Monday night would be fine, and asking what time he thought he'd be here. Also talked a bit about how I was bawling like a baby when my little brother had left to go live in the UK, and at the end of the email I made a totally random comment about an ebay auction I wanted to bid on that was finishing the following morning.

His reply started out saying that he hoped I'd won the auction, then he said that no one at the airport had cried when he'd left for Africa. He said he'd probably be around about 8:30, that he'd be coming straight from OzTag so would still be all sweaty and stinky, and that I shouldn't worry about having any food for him or anything, (but I'll probably still offer to make him a sandwich or something if he hasn't stopped to grab something to eat on the way over). It was all very friendly.

So....what does one wear for the first meeting with their spouse in almost an entire year? This is what I'm now getting slightly obsessive about. Obviously I don't want to look like a slob like I usually would when I'm lounging around the house, but I don't want to look like I got all dressed up for him either. I don't even know if I should put on a bra! I must confess to being a member of the itty bitty titty committee, so I don't actually need to wear one, and never do when I'm at home, and that's something he knows, so will it look like I'm putting in too much effort to do myself up if I'm wearing a bra when he knows I ordinarily hate wearing the things? But if I don't wear one, would that be too....what's the word I'm looking for....intimate? The top I'm probably gonna wear is snug, but not skintight.

Oh, the things that I obsess over!!
