PAUL SURPRISE!!!

Paul surprised me by showing up at my house in Florida yesterday afternoon!!! I was shocked to see him walk in the door...so shocked that I proceeded to yell "omigod!" and bury myself in the "eta" of his Zeta sweatshirt for the next 5 minutes. Crying, a lot. Six weeks is a long time, and surprises make me even more emotional, of course. So much happiness in my heart.

I threw around the idea of him flying down after thanksgiving and driving up north with us for the last leg of our tour a couple weeks ago but he quickly dismissed the idea and so did I. He had class on Monday- so it made sense that he couldn't do it. When my mom said my cousin was coming into town Friday afternoon, no bells rang. Everything was so well coordinated on the Florida end. My mom and my aunt making plans on where they will take said cousin for dinner, what time her flight gets in, etc. Even my aunt in Israel called in and made sure to mention the visiting cousin. Such great lengths to hide the truth! PAUL! I can't believe they fooled me so well. My family is very sneaky!

...And to think just the night before (a mere 3 hours before his plane took off) I was distraught and upset over the phone because I didn't think I was going to be seeing him enough when I get back.

Case in point- my boyfriend is the BEST ever!!!!
