happy 6th!

somewat unbelievably reep and i celebrated our sixth year anniversary last night. can you believe it? six years. six whole years. not totally complete but six years none the less. wow. and how we spent it last night? also, very wow.

he actually got my present a little early. but i didn't know until nearly a full day later and by then he wasn't talking to me anymore (this was last week). it was season two of grey's anatomy. and i got him a guitar pedal and a guitar book. i actually bought him two pedals and let him decide which he liked better. a few years ago (lol) we went shopping and he decided on a couple. so ting and i went to buy him that one. but the cashier recommended another. it was a bit more than i was planning to spend but i figured wat the hell, he wanted it and we don't usually do expensive presents. so.. he ended up picking that one :) i'm glad. but since it was a bit more than i can easily afford we decided he would pay for dinner.

so we decided to go to morton's in santa ana for dinner, cause i love steak and he was curious about the restaurant, having driven by a few times. if you read their website they say the average dinner for two is around $180! anyway, so that night i'm already sitting at the foot of my stairs waiting cause he's a bit late (we played dress up). i hear a car pull up, but he hasn't called yet. i decide to go anyway, and as i get to the door he does call. i get out and hear him close the car door; i'm thinking he's moving things around. i round the corner, around the shrub, and he's there wit a dozen roses. :) (we later figured that he hadn't given me roses since i was in hs!) anyway, we speed on over and have a great time. the bread, french onion soup and dessert were fabulous. the steaks were pretty good. i've had better (and i don't mean that in a condescending way, but just for your future reference..). the rest of the night was great too. no narration tho; nothing really happened. we just had a great time talking and laughing is all.

some funny things did happen tho. reepal wouldn't stop giving me presents! first the roses, then a music cd, then season 1 prison break dvds, then an mp3 cd, then an mp3 dvd, and then a skor bar! and this was all at separate moments during the night! he's so cute, this one. :) i actually gave him something too tho. altho not nearly as cool or well thought out. so reep's a bit tight on money, and we had picked morton's before knowing the average price of dinner. so that afternoon i went to the atm and got $60, thinking that it wouldn't cover half the meal, but nearly half. see, i knew that he wouldn't let me pay for more than half or even half of dinner, but i could get him to take money if it was less than half. so later when we were at our beach i made him close his eyes and hold out his hands. i made him promise me that he could accept watever i gave him. he promised. and i dropped the money in. as soon as i did he was 'i'm not taking this!' lol, but he had promised! hehe. problem was, he owed me some money ($70 or $80, i don't remember) from when i ebayed a video card for him. so right then he tells me he's gonna pay me back and he gives me the same $60 i just gave him! i was like, 'no way! if you're gonna pay me back you cannot use the money i just gave you!' he then whips out his wallet and actually takes out $80! i was thinking he wouldn't have that much cash, but appt he was planning on paying for dinner using cash, but he ended up using his card. argh! so we're both sitting there feeling mighty unhappy wit the situation. me feeling like i didn't pay him for dinner, and him feeling like he didn't pay me back for the vc. =\ but, lol, we got over it. oh, and later. at the end of the night. he walked me to my door. :) who says and old dog can't learn new tricks? not me. definitely not me. :)

btw, i youtubed the grey's anatomy season premier song "the fray - how to save a life" cause i don't have the mp3. and now i can't stop listening to it. i can't wait for romrow night!

lovely story.. glad you guys had fun.  but on a sour note. haha i think grey's anatomy is such a rip off of scrubs.  just more in a dramatic way.  even that song how to save a life by the fray was used in an episode in scrubs when the song just came out awhile ago.  geez. hahahah sorry had to vent with so many ppl going grey's crazy
