Happy

It's spring. The grass is greening up, the leaves are coming out, the tulips are starting to bloom, and that elusive "L word" is in the air. I'm not talking about Lesbians but I'm not in love either. I have determined I am firmly "in like" right now. Things are going very well with my Czech gentleman friend. I met his friends for the first time last night. I was kind of nervous but I had a great evening with them. It was sort of odd since I was the only American in a multicultural room of people from Holland and Deli and former soviet eastern Europe but I think I did well. I have no idea what they will report back but I enjoyed them quite a lot. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I liked myself when I was around them last night. I sometimes have a tendency to ball up inside myself and revert back to a former version of myself that I didn't like being. But last night I was chatty and social and charming and had a very nice time. :-)

He closed on his new house on Friday and I saw it for the first time yesterday. It's super cute but needs so much work. Painting, tiling, bathrooms to be redone, a kitchen to update, and I won't even mention the basement... It's kind of exciting, even if it's not my house. I finally have an outlet for my nesting/ handy man urges!

We're having dinner with the Mysterious Stranger tonight. I'm not really sure how that will go. I've never been in the same room with both of them before and I haven't seen the MS in almost a month. I'm sure it will be fine though.

Oh, and I'm totally in love with this dude:
