Last night (e:) Heidi, (e:) terry, (e:) Joe and (e:) Alexandra went to a Christmas party at Natasha and John's house. We had a great time, are great food, cookies, lots of alcohol and mad gab for the game! We then hit Nietzsche's for a final drink before calling it a night. Pics taken at Nietszche's by two random guys who in turn wanted a pic of each other! What a great way to bring in Christmas eve with friends! I love you guys for real, my buffalo family!!

My beautiful new winter boots! I have been having a HELL of a time getting warm and this year (e:) Heidi got me all squared away with a new warm jacket, gloves and now my new boots! I am finally warm!! Thank you my beautiful fiancee!!

Didn't take many pics of the party, but here are the ones I did get.

(e:) Heidi and I were Blair and Jo from "The Facts of Life" Finally the get together!!

Love Miley Cyrus and Tanya's makeup was awesome although her eyes were creepy but cool, it was hard to look at her and hold a conversation lol

So Halloween means a lot to me as anniversaries are concerned. It was the first time that (e:Heidi) and I kissed, as well as the first time I met all the people I can now call friends!!

I received a mysterious invitation last year for a Halloween party. I decided to go seeing as I knew almost nobody here in Buffalo and the idea of joining the "meetup" was to meet people and make friends. When I arrived (with my friend Suzanne) at the "24" I was greeted by a guy with nothing on but a patch of fur covering his privates and I think were bear ears ((e:Paul)) Within minutes of arriving I saw (e:Heidi) come down the stairs in a prom dress (OMG)!! Within a few minutes Mer and Lana arrived so, counting Suzanne I actually only knew 3 people. By the time the night was over, I had made so many friends it was awesome! So this year I am looking around at the party and realized that last year I had a handful of friends (actually less than a handful) and now I have so many friends; and actual friends, that I can't count them with both hands!! SO HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS!!!

Where (e:Heidi) comes in to this is a great story:
When I joined the "meetup" I consistently looked for (e:Heidi) at events; I wanted to meet the organizer of the group. I finally met her at Babeville for a comedy show. I immediately was attracted to her; between her eyes and smile, just captivating! But she barely noticed me. I saw her again at the first Ambush, offered to buy her a drink but instead she bought me one, I thought cool now were getting somewhere, however, she quickly started to chat with her friends so I went to dance, then the party was leaving and she didn't come, Boo!! The next time I saw her was at the Annual Picnic for the meetup, however, she didn't even notice I existed...Again!! After this I had pretty much given up on her noticing me, or if she had noticed me, she surely didn't like me. I was at gaming one night and Mer was giving me crap for not going to "Beer Club" told me something like "you're not one of the cool kids if you don't come" I heard "You're a loser if you don't go" lol, so I went to beer club in October and guess who was there???? Yep, (e:Heidi), but this time she noticed me and a lot!! She kept smiling at me and I could feel her staring at me the whole night; so cute!! Of course I was also smiling at her and trying to catch her eye all evening; I had been trying for a couple months and now finally-I exist!! :-) With this comes the "mysterious" invitation to the Halloween Party, and that night, or should I say the next morning around 2am we kissed for the first time on the porch of the 24! It was the most amazing kiss ever, I knew I was hooked immediately!! There is something to be said about a "kiss" The story of "Us" is an awesome story and I will have to write it up one day so that we never forget it.

What a year it has been!! Happy Anniversary to all my friends and to my Beautiful Butterfly!!!

Every time we come to Bloss I have to get a stromboli from the acorn, it's SO good!!!

I love coming to Bloss with (e:) Heidi!! I don't know how it's possible to continuously keep falling deeper in love with her, but it just keeps happening with us! She got to see her nephew again (so cute), I got to meet her dad and will meet mom at the festival Sunday, her and Jill worked on last minute preparations for the fall festival while I hung out! The festival is Sunday and I can't wait! I love us!!

I brought China a bed that Buckshot didn't like, and since we got rid of her chair she needed a replacement, she loves it!

I made it through the surgery and still have a little of the nerve block in me so not feeling too terrible at the moment.

(e:Heidi) ess of course with me all day, she got up at some awful hour and we were off to surgery, cane back to the back with me before and after surgery;I do loved that! I know it wasn't easy for her and with (e:terry) not being here with her for support too.....she did a fantastic job and I was so happy to have her by my side.
It has been a really crazy time for us especially this past couple weeks, but this past week with so much chaos she was outstanding! I honestly know I couldn't have done this without her and ironically I wouldn't have wanted to!

I love how we work so well together no matter what it is, we work through chaotic situations well together, it really seems like no matter what is thrown at us we somehow manage to tackle it great together!!

Thank you for being you my love!

Spending my last evening before surgery with the one I love!

Southampton Double White.....yum!
