same_skyI remembered today that this weekend is Couples Day! Yay! We'll have to celebrate somehow, though what we'll do, we're not sure. I suppose most people don't celebrate the last weekend in August as Couples Day, at that. But they should, because it's a prominent Swedish holiday! :)
See, it's like this. M, out of the blue one day, during our long long long time apart, asks what I want for Couples Day. I say, "Couples Day?" and he goes on after a few minutes to explain that it was a (translated, of course) Swedish holiday somewhat like Valentine's Day, with small gifts from the boy to the girl, usually. I wasn't sure if that was indeed true, but finally decided that it was.. partly because I didn't think M was the type to make something like that up. :) A package arrives (late, of course.. we were always late with presents when we were apart) and with it, a letter explaining that it was probably time to confess that he had made the whole thing up. *beam* I thought it was so sweet.. my boyfriend created a holiday just for me!
Actually, he's always doing or saying things like that, but I feel kinda bad about ruining his evil reputation, so I have to space these stories out. *muahahaaa*
There might be good news today. M had an interview, and it apparently went very well.. unfortunately, the interview was for a minimum wage kinda job.. BUT it was in Morehead. However, he has a very exciting interview on Friday... which is kind of terrifying to me as well. It could very well be a job worth moving for. When I was in college, I accustomed myself to the notion of moving somewhere for a job, but then it's turned out that we wanted to stay here.. so now I'm reluctant to leave. But.. I'll stop fretting over it. I don't even raise chickens, much less be able to count them before they hatch.
That was pretty funny if I do say so myself. *cackle*
Right-o. I'm now sitting here telling myself stupid jokes and listening to pained mandolin practice.. methinks it's time for bed.
