Half a Year Later...

Buried in paperwork and working with no clear end in sight, I was a bit surprised that someone would nudge me from behind in my own cubicle. Granted, I shouldn't have expected a knock since I have cardboard walls that barely hover above my short self when standing barefoot, and it's approximately 5 sq. feet total, but it's my space nonetheless, so I turned my head a bit caught off guard...only to find two dozen flowers staring back at me. Never having a normal person's reaction to something lovely like this, I did not turn fully around at this point. Instead, I quickly swung my surprised head to the other side where it was met with Jeremy's waiting smile. He had come to surprise me with not one, but two bouquets of flowers, and a lunch break for our six month anniversary.

I'll be honest - I'm a sucker for surprises. But combine that with flowers and the mention of food (sushi no less), and you have my liquified heart in your hands. Instead of going to Whole Foods and doing a bit of grocery shopping while I perused the hot bar in search of a healthy, tasty deviation from my daily lunch routine, I was able to indulge in the freshest fish and the company of an amazing person. Happy Anniversary to me!
