Week 12

We took a vacation! Just to get out of our apartment for a while. We went to Yosemite for a night. It was crowded and snowy, and Craig learned how to drive my car! (a stick)

Then on Sunday we went to Target and bought a tree, 500 mini lights and decorations. We set up an awesome second first tree! :) It's our second first because it's like... 4ft+ taller. haha. We still have our first. Which I hope we'll have for a while. It looks so pretty!

It was a great feeling to get it set up. We decided to get it because Craig's parents sent me a birthday gift, and it needed a home! It's set up in the corner of our "dining room" and it looks super pretty and home-ey.

Week 11--a week late

I'm a hardass. with everyone except Craig. I learned that it takes a lot of dedication and mind power to be a girl. Or act like a girl. Or try to communicate with girls. I grew up with boys for the first 10 years of my life, I get along with boys easier. I love to play games and trash talk skill. Sure, the girl part of me enjoys some gossip and talking. But I only enjoy just enough to hit the edge of Craig's tolerance, which happens to be mine.

Anyway... it's hard to relate to girls. Guys are easy. Straight forward. Hardly any emotion. I can deal with hardly any emotion. Because that means I don't have to show emotion. It sounds like blasphemy to girls, but I like it. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything since I'm comfortable  in that element.

The reason why I bring this up is because I get a little.... ..... frustrated when I'm assumed to be a girly girl. But there's not much I can do aside from insulting to point that out. And I don't want that either.

Anyway... Whatev.

Week 10

Last week was a difficult one to get through. Mostly for Craig. Work stresses, being extremely tired, just no will to do anything.

Friday everything got better. We actually went to dinner and the movies, something that we haven't done in a few months. Not that we have anything stopping us, but we've been in a rut and a money saving stuff. But we saw Unstoppable. Even with all the cheesy stuff it was pretty good!

We went to the Verizon store and ended up buying us new phones! We'll need to wrap them Christmas Eve and open them in the morning, because that's our Christmas gift to each other :)

anyway! My heart feels better from the last couple posts.

Early Christmas Gift

Craig and I got our Christmas gifts for each other a little early this year.

Craig: got a Droid 2.
Amber: got a Droid Incredible

It is a first smart phone for Craig. And my second. Though the one before was only an eighth as smart.. :).

And yes, I have already dropped it.

Week 9 and 2 Months

This weekend tested how far I was willing to go to make Craig happy while staying sane. I think I passed that limit this weekend.

I won't say what I did to pass that limit, but just that it was the worst thing I've ever had to do in my life. And I don't think I could do it again. And it's not even the worst thing I could have done.

Part of me wishes that what we had to do ends up not working. Because if it were me, I wouldn't have done it. It's a payback to Craig for making me do it. Which I hate. But I don't think he realizes how far out of myself I had to go. And that I only did it because of him. To make him feel better.

My heart hurts. I want to cry all the time. I'm being such a girl right now and I hate that too.

Week 8 : Sweetness

This weekend may not have been one of my proudest moments, but it helped me realize something about Craig. Though I know he does, he showed me on Saturday and Sunday that he loves and cares about me.

We went to a Halloween Party on Saturday evening.. and without realizing it, I had 8 shots of Vodka in my 4 screwdrivers without really eating. I really didn't realize I'd had that many. Which is exactly what happens when you get wasted. haha. But Craig helped me to the bathroom and sat with me a couple times to make sure I was alright. I felt bad so I kept sending him back to play.

He kept asking if he should take me home, but that would have to leave the party himself, I kept saying no. And then when we did get home, he helped me in to the shower, kept checking on me to make sure I stayed awake in the shower (didn't happen, I love sleeping in the shower. lol) and didn't drown. When I got out and went to the bed, he tucked me in. He had put a water bottle on my pillow so I had that through the night. So cute. :)

Anyway, that's my hunny :). So sweet. Let me relax and be slow all Sunday, laying in our bed (on his side). He made me dinner and got me drinks. Oh boy.. I heart him!
