dream

So... let me first say that I am an Office fan. I think it is an hilarious show. Love it!

But, I am not obsessed with it. A lot of people can quote from it verbatim and decorate their myspace Office-themed. Not I!

I was surprise, therefore, when my dream was all Office characters. I don't exactly remember what happened but at the end, I had kinda replaced Pam and was dating Jim. The most clear part of my dream that I remember was sitting beside Jim... holding hands. It was like we were both happy... just sitting together.

Sometimes I think that people who are in relationships take the small things for granted. It is the small things that matter. Just like in the movie Wedding Singer when Robbie is describing how he knew that his ex-girlfriend did not love him. She didn't let him have the window seat as they were flying to the Grand Canyon, although she had already seen it all. The big things (politics, religion, family) are important but it is the small things that make a relationship strong... unique... special.

Most recently, my friends and I went to this party. There was lots of music and drinking. (we are not really party-ers so we didn't handle it very well) My best friend's fiance was in town and went to the party with us but did not drink because he was the DD. When the party was over and they went to their hotel room, he took care of her. (not in a dirty way) he took down her hair (she had it all bobby-pined in place) so that she wouldn't have a head ache in the morning. he put her flowers in a vase. he went ahead and went to the vending machine to get a Sprite and crackers for the next morning hang-over. he was very considerate. a couple days later, as she and I were talking, she told me how considerate he had been. it is because of that consideration that she knows that he loves her and that she wants to marry him. that was a long story and perhaps a waste of blog space but no one really reads this anyway so who cares!

I hope all of you who are in that type of relationship appreciate it! If you are settling for less, stop it! You deserve this kind of love.
