    Jenny Jooonneess...
    "So let me get this straight. You two broke up, he went and slept with another woman and got her pregnant. And you went and slept with another man and got yourself pregnant."

    HAHAHA. Why the fuck am I watching Jenny Jones.

    So last night me and Mandy celebrated our anniversary. If you want to read the details you can head on over to her journal and read about it. I was playin' video games in the den when she came home. I was so fuckin' excited when I saw her. We played video games for a few minutes, then shoved flashlights down each other pants.. well.. my pants and her shirt. Uh, don't ask. Then she asked me about the surprise I had planned and asked if I really had something planned. I think I answered with "Nah I'm just winging it" and put the blindfold on her. Truth is is that I'd been planning this thing all day, well.. the actual uh preparations started that day. Thinkin' about it and planning it in my head has been goin' on since our anniversary night.

    But yeah, so there was a boat and candles. I drove the boat out into the middle of the water. I made an Italian dinner for us with cheesecake and grape juice. I decided on Italian cause our first date was to an Italian restaurant. So it made sense.. but who knew I could cook. We went swimming too. That was her idea. It was kinda cold out there, but it was hella fun. The stars were incredily bright, but you know Mandy was the most beautiful thing out there. When she saw everything I'd done for her the face she made was priceless. It was a look of being completely astounded/blown away. I should start doing things like this more often just so I can see that face. Haha.

    After we swam for awhile we went back to the boat and I showed her the bedroom that was covered in rose petals. You have no idea how long it took me to get those and sprinkle them around everywhere. Hah. Anyways, so then when we sat down on the bed and I gave her the actual present. A book I've had for a long fuckin' time. I've never showed it to her before, in fact I've never showed anyone. No matter where I went I kept it with me though. I'm a pretty private guy. I don't always say what's on my mind, but I sure as hell write out. That's what the book was. I picked it up sometime after we got engaged and I started writing in it about her. My thoughts about her, my feelings for her, my worries and fears. Pictures, lyrics, poems.. all of that went in there. I filled it up completely a few days ago, and honestly I didn't have any intentions on giving it to her. Cause.. it's incredibly personal to me. But when I sat down and tried to figure out what kind of gift to give her, that's the only thing that made sense. Sure I thought about jewelry, candy, flowers, stuffed teddy bears and shit.. but none of that was as personal as I wanted her gift to be.

    She liked it though. A lot apparently. It even made her cry.. heh. I just hope that when she starts readin' the book she doesn't think I sound like a complete idiot. I love you Sandy.

    You know if me and Benj were still doin' the "sappiness points" things I prolly woulda gained like 3,000 last night. Hahah. It was pretty close to perfect I'd say. I'm glad, cause Mandy deserves everything to be perfect.

    VMA's are tonight. I'm anxious as fuck. Oh and I don't usually post pictures of myself or whatever. But I want Mandy to see this one...
