ANNEMARIE GETS ENGAGED:
I didn't mention it yet, but on all of the roses that I'd received so far, there was a little white tag tied to it with red ribbon, and on each side of the paper, was something written on it.
So far....the roses had spelled out...
Side 1: I LOVE YOU ANNEMARIE. YOU ARE
Side 2: B R E TT -A
So...I'm at work...I have this "secret" and it's killing me. I don't want to really say anything because I only have part of a story to tell. One that I am not 100% sure of the ending. I was glad to have some things that I had to take care of for work to try and keep me distracted.
When Danielle got to the office (one of my roommates works with me now), I calmly went to her desk and asked her "So, did you see anything out of the ordinary last night before you went to bed in the living room? Like some roses and a note?"
She didn't know what I was talking about, so I showed her the pictures that I'd taken that morning and told her about the other roses that I'd gotten so far. She got really excited too! I sat back down at my desk, tried to concentrate. I had to share with someone what I knew already, and so I replied to an email that Renae and I had going, and then snuck in the bit about what had happened already this morning. She called me right away and my voicemail was something like "Ohmygosh! Ohmygosh! Ohmygosh! I'm dying over here!!! I can't believe you just put that in an email! Call me!". So I called her back and we shrieked some more on the phone and I promised to keep her updated.
At 8:07am I texted Brett again. I didn't want to talk with him, but I did want to let him know that I was getting everything that he set out for me, so I sent him a message.
Are you up yet? I think some little elf has been busy putting things in places for me today. I'm quite liking it. Wanted to tell the elf that. ;)
At one point in the morning, I was staring blankly into space, and Danielle yelled over at me "You can't focus at all, huh?" She was right. I wasn't really able to do much, so when lunch time rolled around, right at 11, I said "Let's go!"
