A Prost: To Loving the One You're With!

I was having the day from Hell today. Not getting my assignments in on time, bad workouts, dealing with immature people, and just plain headaches. This all changed when my boyfriend came home and talked with me. After awhile, we decided to share a bottle of beer. Not just any beer, though. The Widmer Brother's Hefeweizen to be exact. It is an extremely tasty beer with an eclectic attiude. When you open a bottle, the bottom of the cap greets you with a "Prost" (Which is the German equivalent to "Cheers." This being a type of German beer).

"A Prost: To Beer in Your Camelbak!" "A Prost: To Spamming the Boss!" and "A Prost: To What's-Her-Face Spooning Me!" These are just to name a few. Today, however, I got the bottle cap that changed the course of my day. "A Prost: To Loving the One You're With!" I know it sounds cheesy that this could have such an impact on me, but it did.

I spent all day focusing on what was pissing me off. My guy friends treating me like crap because I'm not single was on the menu today. Or insecure people considering lil' old me a threat. And finally, unsympathetic Stats professors. "I just found out last week that my dad has cancer for F*ck's sake!!" But the bottle cap helped me forget all that. I had a nice quiet evening at home with yummy veggies and chicken with my soulmate. He even bought me a bouquet of roses (pause for "AWWWWW!") There was also a delicious dessert of wine and chocolates. There will also be popcorn and Battlestar Galactica :)

The cap just made me think about something I tend to forget from time to time. No matter how rough things get, he will always be there. I don't know where I'm going in this life and I don't care. I'm just fine as long as he rides shotgun.

Cheers!/ Prost!
