five

the bf planned our anniversary evening.

i was wary, but confident.

after a barrage of questions regarding our whereabouts for the evening, the bf said, "you take the fun out of everything!"

i took that as a sign that the night was off to a good start.

he picked me up at my house. he drove for 3 minutes along bryant avenue. slowed. i yelled, "five!"

we had dinner at five. it was wonderful. salmon for me, lamb for the bf. we both had dessert. mine was aptly named happiness.

he gave me a book by ee cummings, a bob dylan cd, and a card:

to my favorite cat
from your favorite dog

we made it one whole year!
with that kind of luck it's no wonder that vegas is our city.

shall we go for two?

and the answer, always, is yes.
