Thankful Thursday - My boyz


When I met my husband, I didn't think I would marry him. In fact, I was "technically" already married (that's a story for another day), so I was certainly not looking to land a new, serious relationship. I did, however, realize that Jyoti was very special. I remember talking to my best friends, Sam and Amanda, about how connected I felt to him even after only two weeks of dating. He was nice, hardworking, interesting, an excellent cook, and horrible at telling jokes, which made him even funnier in an odd sort of way. I thought that he was amazing, but a new marriage was not on the horizon.

One night, Sam, Amanda and I, were sitting in Sam's small apartment drinking Jack Daniel's, and we made up a game. I can't remember exactly how the game was played, but during play, it was determined that I would marry Jyoti, have his children and corrupt a priest. Two of those things have come true (Actually, Josh wasn't a priest yet), and I'm just waiting for the right time to work on the third. As of now, having Raja is enough.

All I have to say about Raja, is that I love him, even when he tries to eat things out of the trash.

So, today I am thankful for my boyz. They have made my life fun, exciting and better than I ever imagined it could be.

Awww...that's sweet. Except the part about corrupting a priest.

And yet, you still haven't filled Sam in on the details of your priest-corruption! 'Sup with, that?

I'm really, really glad to see you got a real blog! Now I can delete my Myspace account, if I ever work up the motivation...

Hmmm....it seems there are some very interesting, as yet untold, stories alluded to here.... My curiosity is piqued.
