The Weekend I Wanted to Kill My Boyfriend

Doesn't sound very pleasant, does it?

Well as most females know..guys aren't very smart. I think it's the extra appendage that they have...they must leak some brain cells out of it.

Anyway, like every other weekend Danny was going to take the Greyhound bus to Raleigh. The bus is supposed to leave at 6:10. Danny called me at 5:50 saying the bus wasn't going to be there until 8. Then at 7:30 he called to say the bus wasn't going to be there until 11:30, and that instead of his sister picking him up at the station he would just take a cab. So I was expecting him to be at the house around 3am.

Around 11:15 he stopped texting. I assumed he just fell asleep on the bus. I was hanging out with his sisters, not really worrying about it..after all, he is a big bad Marine, right? I fell asleep around 1:15 and woke up around 2:15, still..nothing from Danny. You'd think he would atleast say he got on the bus, right? 3:30 comes around..NOTHING. I was FREAKING out. I couldn't sleep, I was pacing, I felt like I was either going to vomit or cry. We called all the Greyhound stations, corporate numbers, cab companies, even Jacksonville police. Seriously, where the heck was he?!?

Around 4:30, we finally realized there was nothing else we could do. I climbed into bed with his sister and attempted to sleep. My plan was to sleep for a few hours and start calling again in the morning.

7:30 rolls around and my phone is ringing. "Hey, whats up babe?" Seriously, what's up?! You wanna know whats up..I was worried sick! I'm like where the hell are you?! And he's like "oh, the bus never came so I got a hotel room with a couple of the other Marines..I slept really good considering I slept on the floor."

SERIOUSLY. He slept good while I was up WORRYING!! Oh I was so mad, but more thankful that nothing had happened to him! He told me he was getting on the 9:40 bus and he'd be home in a few hours. I told him to be prepared for an ass-kicking. Is it that hard to make a phone call saying that he was going to take the bus in the morning? Or am I being an annoying girlfriend?!

Of course when he finally got home I couldn't be mad. We hung out with his sisters, had a few drinks..and made killer nachos. And we're such old people, I think we were in bed at like 10:30..we're so pathetic.

I love sleeping next to him, even if we're not cuddling..I just like knowing he's there. And waking up next to him is the most amazing feeling. I love that sometimes he talks in his sleep. Last night I remember him saying "what are you doing?" Of course I responded.."um...sleeping." And he started giggling like a little girl, it was probably the funniest thing ever. Sometimes I think he lives under a rock, "babe, did you know they serve dinner at the Cheesecake Factory?" It cracks me up. I just love that we can laugh and be nerdy together, the best feeling ever!

I plan to take the bus down there next weekend..it BETTER be on time..or I'll freak out, I hate not being able to control things like that!

Hope everyone and their Marines are doing well. I'm always thinking of you guys!
