Have you SEEN me?

Formerly Not So Much. . .the daily musings of a 26-year-old PYT whose self-love is superceded only by her obnoxiously endearing ability to remind you at all times just how fabulous she is. Guys too stupid to realize how lucky they are to be graced with her presence? Woman with 4-pack abs climbs onto the elliptical trainer next to her? Arrives at Chick-Fil-A at 10:37, only to learn she has missed her opportunity for a chicken biscuit? She throws all these setbacks off with disdain. . .after all, have you SEEN her??

Things I Love about TJ

1. He LOVES my dog. Plays with her more than me. I was getting ready to go out to dinner last night and caught him darting in and out of rooms, hiding behind doors, and playing hide and seek with her. It was HILARIOUS. She fell asleep in his lap last night and was very put out when we got up to go to bed.

2. He's big. Like way big. Like, in good shape, but very broad shoulders, big arms, picks me up VERY easily. We were actually laying in bed the other day, me on top of him (minds out of the gutter), and he put his hands on my pelvic bone and lifted me above the bed (think the leap in Dirty Dancing that they practice in the water, except from a prone position, not standing). I am not a small girl. Not big, but not small. He makes me feel like a damn rag doll. I love it.

3. He's got spiky hair, like a frat boy. But it doesn't look stupid. Really.

4. He thinks I'm beautiful. Tells me all the time.

5. He holds my hand in public. At almost all times, especially when walking. He is very publicly affectionate; one never wonders, Are they together? We are TOGETHER. Touching, kissing, body language, etc.

6. I have a special ring tone. And our picture is the "wallpaper" on his camera phone. I inspire techno geekiness from him.

7. He likes a lot of the same music I do and burns cute little CDs with songs that remind him of me. Some of the songs are cheesy love songs that only 14-year-old girls (and me, shamefully)would like. I squealed like a 14-year-old girl when he played said CD for me. He is burning me a copy of "our" CD.

8. Despite 7, he is a big strong masculine guy full of confident machismo. The fact that I cause him to do things like 7 only reinforces my idea that he is heads-over-heels for me.

9. He is totally metrosexual. I LOVE that. I think is it ok and desirable for men to exfoliate, use moisturizer, product in their hair, pluck eyebrows, and be vain and look in the mirror a lot. Chances are, if you do so, you are HOT. He is HOT, and deserves to admire the result of his impeccable grooming.

10. We have fun doing absolutely NOTHING together. Or reading the dictionary, looking up fun new words. Yes, we really did that this weekend. We are word-loving geeks. He is the best-looking geek I have ever seen, and it's really not fair for someone that smart to be in a body like that.
