Adaptation


MLK Day today. Rainy day today. I spent the majority of my waking hours sitting on the couch, *trying* to read about writing literature reviews in psychology rather than watching TV and wedding planning. I was on real estate agent standby most of the day, which meant I couldn't really live in the house (no cooking, not too much moving of things, etc). I sat on the couch, sometimes reading, sometimes spacing out, always distracted by wedding ideas, with dog leash in hand, ready to go for a walk should someone come by. And they did. An hour past their time-frame. While it was raining.

After writing about love languages yesterday, I had them on the brain today. This evening James and I got into a conversation about what our love languages are now compared to what they used to be. It was really cool to discover how we've both adapted to the way each of us prefers to give and receive love. The ways I best receive love are the ways James has come to prefer to show love and vice versa. One of the things I love about James is how different he is from myself, and the way we blend our differences into our relationship. I adore the way we've grown together, and I feel so blessed that I get to spend the rest of my life learning about and growing with him.

Also, for anyone wondering, D&D isn't actually super weird. It's an involved board game. And just like with any board game, the company pretty much drives the fun. Thankfully, I get to play around with some pretty awesome people =)
