Four Months to the Moon...sorta

It takes four months for a Lion/Tiger cub to gestate.

It takes four months to "drive" the the moon, if it were possible, and not really, it is actually five months and well, that doesn't work for my blog, so we'll call it four.

And it has been four months consecutively that David and I have spent together, a first for us.

Last month was the marker for the longest we had ever spent together consecutively- three months. I know how shocking that sounds. You are thinking, wait but no, how? seriously? Yes. We had only spent 2 1/5 months together and that was after we got married, just before we moved to Washington.

So here we are at four months. I thought it would feel different like, Ok David, when are you going to leave? But it doesn't. It feels pretty normal. I guess what it is supposed to feel like.

When we were spending only 2 weeks at a time together, that felt rushed, stressed, and like our dating, which consisted of 1 weekend every 2 or 3 months. (I know, that is kinda crazy too) I am sure my parents were a little nervous when we wanted to get married and we hadn't spent a whole month straight together. What can I say?

I believe in blogal honesty, because if not what is the point? The first months living with David again were hard. I mostly didn't like him very much. I was thinking really? Is this him? Maybe I didn't remember him or we were just feeling each other out again but I am just glad to be past that phase.

David and I spend basically all day/everyday together. We eat, sleep, work, drive, play together. And I like it. I used to just get tired of David after a month of being together, now if feels normal. I don't remember the coming-going feelings hardly anymore.

What I like about David:
1. He can reach stuff.
2. He irons.
3. He performs husbandly duties, such as trash take-out and driving.
4. People believe I have a husband when he is around all the time.
5. He massages/wraps my feet.
6. Abbey and Rigby likes it when he brushes them, and me not so much.
7. Someone to talk to other than the cats.
8. A second opinion.
9. Laughing at the tv isn't so pathetic when there is another laugh too.
10. He helps carry groceries up the stairs.

What I forgot about David:
1. He eats... a lot.
2. He is 6 ft 7in and that really impresses people.
3. Boys are stinky.
4. He breathes REALLY loud. And swallows loud. (eyeroll)
5. He gets super hot when he sleeps and therefor I am hot too.
6. He has hobbit feet. Gag.
7. Everyone likes David. He is a likable guy.
8. David talks a lot. More than he eats. I have to tell him to cut the lengthy stories short.
9. He loves my kitties almost as much as I do.
10. How much I love the guy.

Oh and I didn't know that lions take four months, I looked it up on the Internet, I am not a big nerd or anything. :)
