Love at First Type
slider2 It's now July 19th and the day starts
off like any other day, work as usual, but I know that tonight will not
be like any night. Tonight I get to meet my sherry at last and finally
our dreams and hopes and all we have chatted about will be reality. All
day long all I could talk about was that tonight was it and I am sure everyone
was tired of hearing about it but I never got bored of telling about it.
The work day ended and I went home and began to get ready for our night,
I tried to get some sleep but I couldn't as I was to excited to rest, her
flight was not arriving till after midnight, so I just kept going over
the things I needed to get done. I got ready early and decided to leave
for the airport as it was a one and a half hour drive till I got there.
I think I left around 9:30 or so as I never had been to the airport before
and wanted to have plenty of time to get there if I got lost. Well the
drive went slow (or seemed slow as the anticipation was growing) but I
got there in good time..real good as I had an hour to wait before sherry's
flight was to land. All kinds of thoughts are running through my head like
I hope she likes me and I don't make a fool of myself (my favorite pastime..hehe)
and that all goes well. I thought of how hard it must be on her to leave
her home for me and I felt very special. The hour past so slow and as the
time grew near the minutes went even slower. I bought her some flowers
while I waited, watching the flight status so intently, my nerves making
me queasy. And now her flight is late. Those minutes were the longest having
built up to meeting her at a certain time and now I have to wait even longer.
Everyone else was waiting in the hall for their friends or family to arrive
and I stood back by a pole, out of the way, as the plane was finally on
the ground..20 minutes late. The passengers began to appear in the hallway
and I looked for my sherry and finally I seen her walking toward me, that
beautiful smile I will always remember the first time I ever laid eyes
upon her. She walked up to me and we embraced, a long tender embrace, I
looked in her eyes and the first words I said to my sherry were "you're
beautiful"
sherry So the time finally came for us to meet.
I can't say I remember alot of the getting ready. Seems I was just going
through the motions. So confusing at this point. I wanted to meet him so
bad but I knew I had commitments. To my husband and to my children.
(I need to take the time here to tell my ex husband and my children
how sorry I am. Jimmy, I do wish you the best in life and hope you find
someone to appreciate all you have to offer. We have learned so much from
each other. To Mike and Mandy, my babies, the door here is always open
to yous, as my arms, always welcoming you whenever you want to come here,
to visit or live. I love you both so.)
So here I was on a plane going to meet someone that I had
felt I had known for years but yet was a stranger in another state. My
first thougts were of what I was leaving behind, even though I knew I was
coming back. Tears fell as my thoughts wondered yet I didn't want slider2
to see me all tear stained so I was wiping them away right along. The ride
seemed to take forever. As the announcement came that we would be landing
my heart started beating so fast. This was it. Can't even begin to type
the feelings of thinking of laying your eyes on someone that you have talked
to so much... had so many hours together on the net and phone. Shared so
much. I told slider2 not to kiss me for I heard you fall in love if you
kiss. *laughing* Well, finally my turn to get off the plane and walk down
the hallway. hmmm..no sign of him. Looking out in the waiting area. No
sign of him. Well, with it being so late I guess he couldn't come right
where we had got off. So I went with the crowd and headed toward the escalators.
There he was. Standing by a pole, hands crossed in front. Our eyes met
and we smiled. The first thing he said was "You are beautiful". I kissed
him softly on the cheek and whispered "hello slider2" Well, it was the
first of many kisses that night and needless to say he couldn't leave his
hands off me. We were so very happy. He said he was shy in public but that
night you would of never known it. We didn't know or care what was going
on around us. Didn't think we would get out of the parking lot. He was
sweating so bad from nerves he changed his shirt right in the parking lot.
*laffs* hmmm..nice chest!!
