I got two cards in the mail from Elisabeth (aka Best Roomie Ever) the other day and one of them really meant a lot to me, even though I doubt she meant to do that.
The card reads: How do we know Halloween pumpkins are male? Their heads are empty, they have mush for brains, and after a few days they start to smell funny.
She added this: True story! My addition? The beauty and awe only lasts so long. They easily go rotten.
I'm pretty sure she was referencing our ridiculous pumpkins from last year (that we kinda forget about and they, in turn, rotted from the inside out and turned a sickly white color), but it made me think of all my boy drama. With Matt, the illusion that he was perfect only lasted for so long (a very long time, but still not very long). And Mike only lasted a couple weeks before his true colors came out. Alex, though, had me captured. But, as she said, the beauty and awe only lasts so long. I don't know what I did, or if I did anything. But I guess that's over now.
I'm still determined to be optimistic. I'm only nineteen and I've got plenty of time to find a guy who will actually have the balls to hold onto me.
So, thanks Lis'beth. Your card meant more to me than you know. :)
