My weekend with BF was really nice, I am glad that we had that short talk last week - it helped me a lot.

I had a tough day yesterday and he came through in a nice way. I had a couple of things happen in the morning that were difficult, and then I was heading about 90 minutes away for a doctors appt. (I only see her once a year or so, and I like her - so I've made the drive to go there). At around 70 miles, traffic slowed (I found out there'd been an accident ahead). After about a half hour, I started calling BF to ask if he could get me her phone number to let her know I'd likely be late. As I was leaving him a voice mail, I notice steam coming out of the front of the car. I got out, and brown liquid started flowing out.

So the short story is, I ended up getting towed back after spending a couple of hours waiting for the tow truck while on the interstate.

BF was great - giving me advice, sending me a nice text message, and later - even though he'd had a very long day at work (he didn't get off until 9ish), he came and picked me up for dinner and took me back to his apt. Then he drove me back here this morning.

He'll be looking at the car - but the tow truck guy started it yesterday (it did start), but it quickly shut down.

I am really grateful for having him in my life, he really is a great guy most of the time. He isn't the most romantic - probably not even close. But he is thoughtful, and helpful, and those are incredibly important to me.

Oh - and we have been back together 2 months as of yesterday. I told BF that and he wasn't terribly excitable about it, mostly just said he didn't know what day we got back together and such. It kind of bugged me that he didn't acknowledge it more when I said that, but hey - he was REALLY terrific all weekend. And he's good with birthdays, and I think he'll be good with the anniversary too when we actually marry.
