Yesterday there was a humming bird outside my window. It stayed there hovering for a few moments, then left, then returned, then left again to perch on the tree. The humming bird is Jeremy's spirit animal so I thought of him while I was sitting by the window without him.
Right now, we're sitting on our love seat drinking G&Ts. It's Tuesday. It's the weekend. Uruguay just got their asses beat by Holland, and we are sitting here discussing symbolism. Not because Holland whooped Uruguay's ass, but because Jeremy spent $100 on a dragonfly tea pot set for us that apparently symbolizes love, happiness and eternity (according to Japan). He bought it hoping it would symbolize our relationship, but according to Google, the Native's believe it symbolizes the undead. That made us wonder if there was any credibility to symbolism. Does anything really mean anything at all or does it just mean what you want it to mean? (Yeah, I heard Carrie Bradshaw in my head when I wrote that).
Jeremy turned 28 yesterday. His sister, Ayla, thinks he's an old fart now. But apparently (according to Google), 28 is the new 18 -- check your facts, Ayla.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Last night we drew a picture. At the fancy restaurant, we drew (with crayons on the paper table cover) a symbol of our everlasting love.
To me this means I love Jeremy very much, but I don't want him to get embarrassed by my heart drawings infront of his waiter friends so I drew skull and cross-bones to even it out.
What does this mean to you? Seriously. We're interested. Apparently, symbolism is subjective. But just so you know... we side with Japan: Our dragonflies represent love & happiness for eterenity. (4Eva)
Jeremy needs a new G&T now. So do I. Adios. Happy Tuesday.
Interesting note about dragonfly symbolism. Christy and Lea used it as the symbol for their wedding.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I hope you are drinking Tangueray, or I may have to disown you. When is the next projected trip back East? I know you two just got there, but with Anna arriving soon it makes me really, really miss you.
ReplyDeleteAnd your restaurant drawing reminds me of the one you drew of/for me Julie...it's of me farting and people committing suicide out of the window.

The teapot sounds beautiful! $100 is a small price to pay for eternal love and happiness! Enjoy it!!
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful! Thank you :) I'll have to add a picture.
