Things I Can't Wait to do :

I can't wait to take a drunken midnight stroll on a foreign beach.  I can't wait to reschedule meetings to make a field hockey game.  I can't wait to awake on a Sunday, sure of the with newspapers and Bloody Mary's at the kitchen table.  I can't wait to take vacations with friendly couples.  ... to build a snow bar outside after a big storm and hosting an outdoor happy hour with the neighbors.  ...  to make quarterly drives to see friends on long weekends.  ... to wait anxiously at the window for friends making their quarterly visits to our to pick a dress for a high school graduation.  ... to help a young bride pick her dress.  ... to plan a bridal shower.  ... to plan a baby shower.  ... to hold an infant and know I will be there from their start to my finish.  ... to plan for retirement.  ... to pack for an anniversary trip.  ... to not be the "new" one.  ... to start feeling "new" again.  ... to have a house full of people for Christmas dinner.  ... to know your face better than my own.  ... to get a hug from a teenager.  ... to never look over my shoulder.  ... to move my things into "our" house and feel like I belong there.  ... to get started.
