Crush Revisited

What do you do when your old junior high crush comes back into your life? Let me preface this by saying that we are both single so there isn't anything funny (or not so funny) going on. I am one of the main people in charge of my 20 year high school reunion. As I was trying to find people on Facebook and Classmates.com I came across his name. I knew the basics about what he had been doing for the past 20 years, Bay County isn't that big so word gets around but I don't think I have talked to him face to face in God knows how long. Also let me say that he didn't know I had the biggest crush on him. I was WAY to insecure around guys for that!

I started writing this post March 9. Let's just say that in the three months that have lapsed much has changed in my life. The "crush", Jon, came in town mid March and we have been together ever since. Since he is an Officer in the Army stationed at Fort Jackson, SC there have been many trips to Jacksonville, Florida (half way for both of us). I would drive every weekend if that meant he didn't have to be stationed overseas in Iraq or Afghanistan. How I am praying that won't happen! He is up for orders so anything is possible. As it is the weekends we don't see each other are absolutely terrible so having him half a world away...well I don't even want to think about it!

Oh how I love my blue eyed boy!

This is Jon when he played football for Troy State University in 1989.
