How I Met Angel

Well, hello there blog reader. February was an interesting month! And March is turning out to be one too. Well, let’s start with an update. One crazy February 13th afternoon, I met a guy at work. He called me on my cell while I was at Keck, telling me that my patient had arrived. CRAP! Was my first reaction. I told him to check the patient in and that I would be on my way. I got back to Radiology as fast as I could. I whizzed past him and his partner with a quick smile and went back to MRI to see if we had a space for the patient. We did. So I went back up to the front where they (him, his partner, and the patient) were waiting. I told them that we were ready to bring the patient back so that they could wait inside. Once they brought the patient in we had about an hour and a half to kill. I consented the patient for the study, and after that, we talked some more. I thought he was cute and we were talking a lot while my patient was waiting for his scan. He asked me for my number and surprisingly I agreed. I ran to my stuff, pulled out my business card (because I needed something to write my number on), and gave him my cell number. He said he would call me and I waited. On February 14th (oh Valentine’s Day) he called and asked me out on a date for Saturday, February 18th. I agreed and said that we would decide the place to meet. So we met up on Saturday in Pasadena at this place called Afloat Sushi (I picked the place). We had dinner and once dinner was over, we walked around, talked some more, and ended up at a bookstore (I’m such a nerd… lol). At the bookstore we talked about the kinds of books that we liked and which ones we haven’t read. So he picked out a book for me, and called it my “roses”. I also picked out a book for him to read. So we walked around some more and at one point he asked me about flowers. I started to tell him that I’ve never gotten flowers before from a guy. He immediately stopped, ran back to this lady we had walked past selling flowers, and bought me two roses. It was the cutest thing ever.

My Roses :)

Well after that gesture, I knew he was a keeper. So we continued on our date, went to a Baskin Robbins to have some ice cream and continued to talk for a long time. We realized that it was late when we looked at the Baskin Robbins employees eyeing us like trying to tell us to leave haha. So we left the Baskin Robbins and he walked me to my brother’s car (my car was in the shop getting fixed at the time). I returned his jacket to him and when we said goodbye, I kissed him and took him by surprise. He really liked the kiss and so he kissed me when I got into the car. I didn’t want to leave at all It felt like I was on a cloud that night.

Fast forward a few days. So his sister and her fiance invited him to go to Disneyland and he asked me if I wanted to go. I said ok and so we planned on going on Saturday. On Thursday night I asked him if he wanted to go to the movies so I can see him before our Disneyland trip. So we went to go see The Secret World of Arriety. It was a good movie :) . We had a great date with dinner and some more kissing haha. On Saturday, he came by my house and picked me up to go to Disneyland. This is when he met my dad. It was a little awkward but I knew it was a good thing they met. He also met my oldest sister. So we had a blast at Disneyland, full of fun and lots of PDA lol. His sister invited me to their house for the following weekend since she was throwing her daughter a birthday party. I agreed to go. I got to his house early, and we ended up going to breakfast and to the park. At the park, he asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend. I said I guess since he was asking that my answer would be yes! :) I was super happy. So we went back to his house and hung out with his family. I really liked his family a lot. I went over to his house a few times after that and we planned a hiking trip. Here is a picture from the trip:

We had a fun time and he got to meet my other sister and my brother since they came along too. It was a pretty cool experience.

I am definitely liking where this relationship is going. He’s so kind, gentle, funny, sweet, and overall a great guy :)
