freight train

okay, first i have to apologize for the lack of punctuation and capital letters today...i'm at qc on a keyboard that sux, but i am compelled to write anyway...

things with michael are going fast. super fast. i'm still thinking that's a good thing, but, as always, i am overthinking. we went out again on friday, and it was absolutely fantastic. we are talking about things that i would normally think would wait a while longer, like getting engaged and what it might be like living together, but really, it doesn't seem so far-fetched when i talk about those things with him. maybe because he's the only man i've ever been with that really had the means to walk out this second and put all of that in motion if he decided to.

anyway, i am quite excited to say that this weekend we are going "away." technically, we're only going into manhattan, but after our amazing first date at The View, i am overwhelmed at what might be in store for me. he won't tell me a damn thing, except to bring an overnight bag and be prepared to go "somewhere nice."

i admit, i am a little nervous, as things are progressing as rapidly as they are. we talked about engagement rings again today, and already he is whisking me away for a weekend.

to make it even better, he told me he loved me today, and did so in writing through a beautiful card.

to top it off, technically, monday will be our one month anniversary.

i have not been so happy in a very long time.
