Jersey Love

Alex and I have (somewhat) matching jerseys to wear Saturday for the big game. (If you really care, I am this guy while Alex is this guy. I'm better because I'm the quarterback. I always know what the quarterback is doing, which is one reason why I suspect Alex got me that particular jersey.)

Anyways, I'm talking all this OSU stuff like we're going to the game, which we're not. Although we could have gone, had we been willing to drop 2 grand for four tickets in the student section. Since we're not made of money, we'll be hosting a party (and by "we," I mean "Alex") in which a lot of pig will be eaten and a lot of TV's will be showing the game. I'm looking forward to taking disgustingly cute pictures of ourselves in our matching red jerseys and then threatening to send them out as Christmas cards.

I'm actually more excited about tomorrow, Friday, becuase it's a big day for Alex and me. That's right folks, tomorrow marks 6 months of dating bliss. While this may not seem like a long time to all of you normal people out there, it's a hugely long time for your girl Cora. (Did I really just use "your girl Cora?" Am I stuck in the 70's or something?) I've never been the girl that the boys like, so I always had trouble getting dates. And then once I got them, I liked to run them off. It's a fun game to play, really. Try it sometime.

But Alex? Alex is a keeper and I'm planning on forcing him to stay with me as long as he'll have me. So in honor of our love for the ages, (hee) we're going out tomorrow night just the two of us. We're beginning the evening at the same restaurant we first dined at together, lo these 6 months ago. And instead of Starbucks, I'm planning on sneaking in a side trip to Caribou Coffee. Then we're going to see Casino Royale. Because I am very excited to see that movie for no good reason other than Daniel Craig is mighty fine and I want to see some hot spy action. Fortunately for me, I'll have the finest man in the house sitting right next to me, holding my hand, and probably dreaming of Buckeye football throughout the entire movie.


And I couldn't be happier.
