My...

This afternoon I was at work waiting to get into my Chief's office. I was hovering as he had flagged me just a minute and getting extremely bored. I saw that a friend of mine was watching, so I walked over to his cube. We started talking and chatting about this and that...

Eventually the topic turned to kids and how so many kids were off school and perhaps that is why email was so slow this afternoon. He mentioned how his kids were off, as well as, another coworker's... I said that my daughter wasn't off...and neither were my husband's kids (referring to Paulywog). MY HUSBAND?!?!?!?! ACK! I turned 25 shades of red, put my hands over my face and said...I mean my boyfriend's kids...

I couldn't recover. I told the guy, okay, I've lost it, I'm done, can't think...gotta go...

WTF was I thinking? Was it a slip of the tongue that I referred to Paul as my husband? Was it wishful thinking? Was it me day-dreaming too much?

Paul and I get along great. He asked me to go away over the July 4th weekend with him... He's asked for all kind of input regarding the house he is closing on tomorrow... And I can't wait to see him...and hope to God he can't wait to see me either...

So was it a slip of the tongue or was it a glimpse of what is yet to come.

What will Paul be to me?

Will he be my...?
