OK, so I decided to make a thread because I wanted to share the Python Simples story. I found these from the most lovely tPFer (you know who you are!!! Thank you again SOOO much!), but since I'm working abroad in Africa, I had her send the shoes to my BF back home (who is not all that pleased to act as my errand boy while I'm away).
Anyway, a few months passed, and we set up a trip for him to come and visit me here. We have been together for 4 years now; I came here in June, saw him for 2 weeks in Septemeber, about 4 days in December, and then we've been apart since (I'm done in June). I was so nervous to pick him up from the airport, because he really is my biggest crush (still!), and besides being totally in love with him, I really admire and respect him for the man he is. So I get to the airport last Monday night, and he gets out superfast ... as he's walking toward me, I think: OMG. He got big (basically everything is fat/big if you live in the Horn of Africa--that's a different story). We took a taxi home, and I was so happy to see him, but not in the run into his arms and scream kind of way. The poor man traveled about 27 hours for a "hey--how ya doin'?" reception!
He unpacked, and we had a drink, and he revealed ... THE PYTHON SIMPLES. When he took them out of the dust bag (which he had wrapped in bubble wrap--sweetheart), I SCREAMED. (This came back to haunt me in an argument when he brought up the fact that I was lukewarm about his arrival, but screaming about the shoes--
).
Anyway, yesterday was my first day back at work (he left the night before), and I was pretty sad all day. Usually he hides a note for me after he leaves (I do it, too), so I looked and looked for the note, but couldn't find it! Plus, I had a rough day in the "aren't I better than all this silly crap this office has to make me deal with/I don't deserve this belligerent nonsense" way. So, I worked late anyway, and walked home--I went up to my room to put on my shoes, because let's all face it: Louboutins can brighten any bad day.
I took them out of the dust bag, AND THERE WAS MY NOTE!
He tucked it into one of the shoes, and it was the sweetest love letter he's written so far. I took the pic of the shoes so you could see the note how it was tucked into the left shoe.
So, I wanted to share my romantic CL story, the python simples and our pic.
Sorry this is long, but I miss him so much! Thanks so much for letting me share!
