sticky sweet, like molasses

Yeah.
The things I say to Kathy are pretty corny (as in corn syrup), but if you've been around us long, you know I don't stop, it isn't for show and it IS from my heart.
What can I say?
She keeps me inspired. It's not hard to be imaginative when I'm always trying to impress her.
Even if it didn't get her attention, I would still tell Kathy sweet things because I know it SHOULD get her attention!
Oh and that's not ALL I do to show her what she means to me.
I send her texts whenever she is at work, hide the occasional card, give her rub downs, call whe... HEY! If it has a chance of impressing her, I'M DOING IT!

I don't think this should get my Man Card pulled.

In my defense, what you should also know (Guys listen up), is that Kathy impresses ME all the time too!
She is so damn Cute and Sexy!
She shares my new adventures, I get my own rub downs, she makes great food, is classy without pretence, smart, empathetic, tough... I can go on and on!
Let me just say, I get LOTS and LOTS of jellybeans!
I don't think I'll ever get the gushing over this girl out of my system.

I hope I never do.

Guys, when you meet someone who makes YOU feel like Kathy makes ME feel,
you better not take any chances of her getting away!
Sweep her off her feet and don't ever stop getting her attention.

Unless it's Kathy and you should just move along.
Cuz she's MINE... and forever is a long time to wait!

WOW!

THANK YOU!
That's a gigantic "Thank You!" to so many of you who showed up last night!
It was more than we expected in so many ways!
I keep telling Kathy that this story of her life is just beginning.
You all are helping me prove that to her.
What a great way to recharge her damaged psyche, by stuffing Roscoe's full of people who love her!
Kathy was really nervous as we drove to Phoenix.
I tried to downplay expectations, as it was a Thursday night and only ten days before Christmas.
Seeing that there was no close parking available was the first surprise.

The shoulder to shoulder people, packed inside like sardines, who clapped and cheered as Kathy was wheeled in, made for such an overwhelming moment that my heart swelled for her!
It couldn't have been better! Everything about it exceeded expectations.
It was so so good for Kathy to see how many support her.

I feel like I should list everyone who was there and did so much, but this post would be a long and tedious read if I did.
I'll wait and do a separate post for that.
Mostly I want to say that we BOTH can't thank all of you enough, for the words of encouragement and love, the generosity, the great company and time out of your busy schedules.
Nobody wants to be forgotten.
You all showed Kathy that THAT will never happen!
THANK YOU!
