Rock Buttom Series One: New Years
You have to hit rock bottom before climbing back to the top again.
This is a hard lesson to learn, and I, my friends, have learned it.
2013 basically sucked.
I should have known from New Years Eve that year, since usually New Years Eve sets the tone for the whole year.
If you couldn't tell, that night was horrible. The "at the time" boyfriend had to work (even though I think he did this on purpose) so i was used to spending most of the night alone, and would get my kiss at midnight, then go home. Alone.
I did this for three years, so I shouldn't be surprised when 2013 did the same. I got my kiss, and went home. Alone. Except, this time I wanted him to stay the night with me. I thought I had him convinced, but then when I left his work place I didn't hear from him. Texted him, nothing. I actually didn't hear from him for days after.
This was an on going theme.. but we won't get into that now.
2014 I brought in the New Year drunk with wonderful friends. Probably the best New Year I have ever had. I got super sick that day, and was sick for the entire week. It was the worst cold ever, but I'm super glad that I experienced that day.
Now that 2014 is half gone, it makes me think about 2015, and New Years Eve.
I have recently fallen in love with a boy ( I KNOW) and embarked on a long distance relationship.
This is how it has worked.
He "courted" me for months. We talked all day, everyday before he came to visit me.
I didn't want to make things official until I met him, in person. (He had asked me quite early on to be his girlfriend.)
He came for 4th of July weekend, and I'll tell you what, he was the most perfect human.
We spent the weekend meeting my friends, drinking beer, and eating whatever we wanted to.
When he left I knew I didn't want him to go. I cried. A lot.
We made plans for me to go see him in October. I purchased my plane tickets already, and I'm so anxious and excited.
In October we will make plans for him to visit me again, and so on....
I want to bring in 2015 with this boy. I can think of no better way to do it.
It will be like my first New Years Eve with a boyfriend again.
A boyfriend who wants to spend time with me.
Who will kiss me at midnight
and will go home with me
so him and I can be alone.
Let's do this 2015
