Thanks to the very large cup of extra caffeine coffee I drank earlier this evening, I managed to stay up far later than usual.
I spent the early evening making good on my (slightly delayed) new years resolution to read the Bible, in it's entirety, by the end of the year. Considering HTB is on the way to becoming a pastor, I thought it was a good idea. So, because I'm awful about doing things on time, I started tonight and read the first six days worth of readings, came up with questions for discussion with my own personal tutor.
Then I picked up another book that seems to be the antithesis of the Bible. But really, how many women can resist the lure of a sexy highlander historical romance?
And read the whole thing.
All of the nearly 400 pages of time traveling, spell weaving, love story.
About half way through, I decided it was time for me to go read in bed, instead of at my computer desk downstairs since the angle was causing a nasty pain in my neck. It struck me as I walked around to go up the stairs that 5 months from now, my husband will be walking up those stairs with me. Climbing into this bed with me. Cuddling up and making love in this bed with me. Kissing me good night, rolling onto his stomach and promptly starting to snore right next to me. Waking up to me yelling not to kiss me I've got morning breath. Pretty much every day into the foreseeable future.
And instead of freaking me out (that forever aspect can be damn daunting), it gave me a lovely warm fuzzy feeling (possibly the result of too many romance novels - at least 4 - being read this week alone) and a sense of contentment that I'm finally going to get my happily ever after, too.
Either I'm not gonna get the pre-wedding jitters, and temporary cold feet... or they are gonna sneak up on me at the very last second.
In conclusion, I'm looking forward to being 'the wife'... and I'm really looking forward to having a body next to me in this bed to stick my (literally) cold feet on to warm them up! (sorry sweetie)
