This guy I met...
It's mind blowing really....
He's just so damn good to me sometimes I have an extremely hard time putting it into words. I just feel this sense shattering, well...mind blowing, electricity through my vains every time I think of him.
Hmm, and to think, I was having a hard time putting my thoughts into words.
Anyway, our relationship is just like one of those sappy chick flicks I found myself watching and crying over every single night while drowing in a pint of one of the 31 flavors, before we met.
And our meeting, ohhh our meeting was sereal....I'm telling ya-straight out of a movie! It was based on pure destiny, it pays to be in the right place at the right time. At least that's how we refer to it as. I was on my way to school in a flustered rush as usual and that morning I had oveslept, as usual, so I didn't even bother to put on anything special or even do my hair (which definitely NEEDS to be done if I want to look human) I couldn't find a parking spot and was already 10 minutes late for class. To make a long story short, I finally park, run to my class, only to find out that my "lovely" professor locks her door 10 minutes after class begins. I whisper a few choice words under my breath, take a seat, breathe, turn to my right, and there he was, sitting on the bench next to mine. We call this destiny because had I not overslept exceptionally well that morning, I would've made it to class and more than likely fallen asleep again while my professor rambled on about why we make the choices we make....yadda yadda yadda....
Ok so, we exchanged glances, then names, small talk, and the next thing I know he's inviting me to a party. I attend with some girlfriends, we hit if off and that was a wonderful, fantastic, wouldn't trade it for anything in the world--whole year ago.
Since then we have made so many unforgettable memories together. I have never met a guy like him before. I know that sounds so predictable I'm sure all girls say that about their boyfriends who they love to pieces. But, with my guy it's totally true! I'm not the only person who thinks these things about him either. His character is unique and dynamic. He can make a room full of people mourning over the death of a loved one burst into the kind of laughter that will make someone pee their pants. And his humor in that particular situation, or in any really, is never tacky or childish, it's genuine and life-like, it's real....it will make you pee your pants.
He always knows what to say and he says these things at the precise moment they're called for. It's his gift I think. I'm never mad at him for too long before he's pointing out something great about me. Something great about me to him that most of the time I don't really believe anyone else can see. Hell, I don't even ever see it....but he does. He notices things. He's observant and gives credit and thanks for my little quirks. He's tells me that without my little quirks I just wouldn't quite be me....I'd be me...just not quite me. Ya follow?
Anyway, he listens, he remembers, he cares, he tries and fails but also tries and succeeds.
God, is it possible to feel so intensely for him so soon? Yes, it's been a year, but I know people who say they're still not ready and they still just don't know after many many years together. Who am I kidding? Of course it's possible, he's everything I always knew and never knew I wanted.
He acknowledges mistakes he's made, but never dwells on them just learns from them. He's so damn smart too. I complain about school and what to do with my future career-wise. His optimism about life and the future rubs off on me at times like those and my fear of the unknown turns into excitement. I swear he's like an angel....my blessing that I know I don't deserve.
Continuously, I find myself asking where he came from and why me? He then reminds me that he asks himself those same questions every single day.......
.....So I missed lecture today....couldn't seem to wake myself up from this really real dream I was having about this guy I met.....

As a reader, I enjoyed the writing. Very entertaining. You drew me in with your intense description and kept me in by never letting up with your writing. Important for a writer that wants to keep a reader reading until the very end. And a nice twist at the end.
As your brother, on the other hand, although I would have been happy for you in theory had this story been real, I found myself getting slightly agitated that you had kept this from me. In your brother's mind, I was reading as if you had been lying to me about the boys in your life, and as you know, I wouldn't mind there not being a boy in your life for a little while. As your brother, I liked the ending.
Either way, as long as your honest with me at all times, I will always be happy for you whenever something good comes along your way. But think of the happiness everyone else will feel for you, including yourself, when that something good comes from you.
Keep up with these writings. At least one every two weeks.

Very well written Biffer. I suppose literary prowess runs in your genetic code. I caught a hint that this was a somewhat fictional piece (fictional as in it wasn't reality, not that you didn't really dream it) toward the begining, but you subtley tied it all together at the end. You're an excellent writer, and Soj doesn't know the difference between you're and your.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! Hope all is well.

Why doesn't surprise me that Chad was confused???
It doesn't surprise me either that it took "the boys" awhile to catch on to the "dream man"...hum...
Great writing as always!
