Three simple words...

Now she's done it. She said it, and meant it, I hope. She said those
three simple one syllable words that everyone longs to hear. Not only
did she say it, she said it exactly the way I imagined. I said, "I
love you." and she just says, "I love you, too.", all casual like. It
was beautiful. I review the conversation up to that point to make sure
I didn't miss anything. All I can say is "wow," not the most eloquent
thing to say I'll admit, but I was just trying to make sense of the
situation. Then I realize I'm grinning ear to ear. She said it again
this morning. It just about kills me. I wonder if its possible to die
from extreme happiness? Not even the depressing hellhole which is work
can bring me down today. Life is so great I'm a little worried that
something bad is going to happen, you know to balance out Karma or the
universe or something. It'll have been worth it.
