This morning Facebook informed me that I was in a relationship. I knew that I was dating her, and that we really liked each other. But until this morning, I wasn't really sure that I had a girlfriend. Isn't it funny how that works, that a website is necessary for me to understand/confirm my relationship status?
The semester, as I said before, is shaping up to be an interesting one. Time is one of those words whose meaning eludes me. Sleep isn't far behind. But life is going well.
It's been a while (to put it mildly) since I have actually had a girlfriend. I've dated girls over the past few years, but nothing serious ever came out of it. I am finding that it brings it's own level of joy and stress to any given situation. But the joy certainly outweighs any of the negatives associated with the relationship (at least for me).
It simply helps me to remember that we are social creatures. And while that can be difficult at times, my days have definitely been better, and Amber Lee has certainly been a large part of that.
On a final note, somehow I managed to jump ladders without realizing it (though to be honest guys rarely know which ladder they are on until it is too late). So, I think I've earned a gold star for the week.
Gold star for you!
And I thought we cleared up the "are we dating" situation yesterday at lunch? :)

Jumping the ladder is no small feat. Screw the gold star. You need questing cake.
