I can't give you the fantasy. I can't give you the perfect, wakes-up-in-full-makeup and never-burns-the-toast wonder woman. What I can give you is giggles under the covers, and crappy Chinese takeout, and soft kisses on hard days. All I can give you is all of me.

So maybe it's a little frayed at the edges. Maybe it's seen too much sun and stood too many storms. Maybe it's ugly sometimes. Maybe it steals cat-naps, and kisses in the kitchen. Maybe it's a total mess. But it's our love, and that makes it a damn beautiful mess.

Me-"Hmm..ours is a soul-gutting job plauged by endless rejection & self doubt."
Voice-"Look lady, I'm just trying to do your taxes. Do you make anything as an author or not?"
Me-"Do imaginary friends count?"
