6 Month Milestone.

Today marks half of a year from that day under the stars. Six months since the last time I had touched cannabis. I don't remember where the day started.

Part of me wants to say we went to Barnes and Noble because we did that often, but another part of me says that isn't true. I do remember going to the movie theatre originally planning on seeing Wall-E. I mean, it's a cute robot movie! We got there in time to catch a movie before Wall-E so we decided to see Step Brothers. All in all, it was an okay movie. I don't think I was paying as much attention to the movie as I was to James.

During one of the many sappy and lovey-dovey parts of Wall-E, I remember turning to James and saying "I think I love you." I had been back in Arizona for 19 days and already, I felt like he was my other half. All throughout my stay in Holland, we chatted and through all the chatting, we got closer than we probably had ever been. Upon return to Arizona, he was really the only person I spent time with.

After movies, we went to a deserted field at sat in his truck. He finished the last of the stuff I had from Amsterdam and I think we threw in some stuff he had left. After that, we went to the bed of the truck and sat. The wind was blowing, it looked like rain was coming in.

I ended up on the roof of the cab, settled between his legs. He was standing against the cab, and it was there that we decided to retry the relationship.

Six months later, I'm sure he is the only person I ever want to spend the rest of my life with. I've been through so much with him: We've been stuck in Vegas, had his parents catch us, had an interesting pregnancy scare, planned out a home, plotted to freak out his parents to uber extremes, and I've spent perhaps 48 consecutive hours away from home with him. He's made me realize so many things and helped me become a better person.
