Lovesick

My nose is plugged, my throat is sore, and my chest is congested. I should feel crummy but I can't seem to shrug off this elated feeling. Despite of Brent's opinion, I love him every day and last night felt like I had fallen in love all over again. I love it when he does that to me.

Last night, I opted to stay home -- normally I’d be at dance but my body ached and I was just too tired. I’ve been sick since Sunday and as much as I wanted to go out, my body wouldn’t let me. Instead, I plopped myself in front of the television and watched “So You Think You Can Dance”. I dozed on and off until the doorbell rang.

It was Brent! He was supposed to be at camp with his students but he decided to drop by. Even though he has only been gone for a couple of days, I’ve missed him like crazy. And oh goodness, he looked so cute in his shorts and t-shirt. His shirt was a little dirty and his hair looked kind of funny.

“What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be at camp!”

“I wanted to see you and make you feel better.”

He gave me a little package that contained everything I needed to get better: orange juice, vitamins, cough drops and a sleeping potion for those restless nights. Hugs and kisses included.

He stayed a while and watched the rest of the show with me. He held me close and that’s when I fell in love all over again. I can’t describe the feeling because I am ESL, but let me assure you that it was fine.

It was time for him to go. After all, he's supposed to be chaparoning the kids. He bade me farewell and off he galloped into the sunset.

*Swoon*

I am still feeling the effects of the euphoria right now, but I'm thinking maybe it’s the meds.


Bless.
