When they begin the begin

Here is a short list that I've complied today.

Good things about the beginning of a relationship:

• Realizing that someone out there is just as weird as you are.
• Laughing at absolutely nothing just because the other person makes you feel like laughing.
• Staying up WAY too late just because you want to be around the other person.
• Having your friends catch him watch you across the room and then shamelessly reporting it back to you.
• Getting to tell all your stories to an avid audience.
• Realizing that regardless of his plans, he probably wants to break them to hang out with you.
• Realizing that you don't want him to break his plans, but being happy knowing that he would.

Bad things about the beginning of a relationship:

• Realizing there is someone out there just as weird as you are.
• You are always tired because you didn't get enough sleep the night before.
• All motivation to go to work and get productive things done is sapped.
• Having to deal with the realization that you are a psycho out of control maniac when it comes to text messaging.
