saturday surprise

while i was away in Texas
having the time of my life
aka drinking and dancing and crying and barfing,
Mr. REA was plotting a surprise.

a Saturday Surprise.

hey babe, can't wait to see you. 
i have something for you.
it's a surprise ;)

and-you-better-believe i thought it was an engagement ring.

but i also had a more realistic inkling that it was probably a KitchenAide mixer.


and i promised myself,
if it was a fatty diamond,
i would say yes yes yes.

and then
within that very same fantasy,
i promised myself
that if it was in fact a KitchenAide mixer,
that i would in fact
propose to Mr. REA.

so in my mind, i was getting engaged.
regardless of which surprise it was.


and when i arrived home,
hangover and all,
there was a beautiful white KitchenAide mixer
sparkling for me on my faux-granite counter tops.

and then i kissed Mr. REA on his handsome face until the sun came up.

because let's face it folks:

Mr. REA
is in fact
the best boyfriend
ever.
