This is gonna pose a problem.

Monday, October 17, 2011
Over the past year+, Graym and I have spent some wonderful times together. From snowboarding, hiking, carving pumpkins, and family get togethers, we have spent hours by each others side and I could only be happier when I get to spend every day with him. 

I've also learned a lot about Graym and myself during this time. We have many things in common, and love sharing with one another the things that we don't. But, sadly, I have also discovered what will be the first big dilemma in our married life...

Graym is always hot (and I don't mean his totally ridiculous babe status). He is warm blooded, sleeps in his boxers and a thin sheet, and prefers to spend most of his time at home shirtless. 

I, on the other hand, am always cold. I go to bed in fleece pants and a long sleeve shirt, throw at least one comforter on me, and, which Graym finds extremely weird, even occasionally enjoy the steamy feel of a car when you first open the door after it's been sitting out in the summer sun all day (Ok, so that might be little strange but come on, it's all warm and toasty in there!)

This has posed a problem during numerous cuddle sessions. We'll sit down to watch a movie or discuss a chapter in the book we've been reading and in my attempt to get cozy I'll grab a blanket and throw it over us. Graym quickly gets hot and sweaty and takes it off. I then find myself with chilly goose-bumps and the blanket is somehow wrapped and tucked around me and between us so that I am left with the benefit of warmth and him with the freezing cold he so strangely enjoys. This is pretty much what we look like half the time: 


This doesn't seem like much at the moment, but this poses a very interesting situation once we start sharing a bed. We're obviously gonna want to cuddle and be close as we fall asleep, but when my idea of cuddling involves warm blankets and his involves as little around him as possible, one of us is gonna be left to "deal with it." 

And it surely won't be me! Ugghh, if Graym just stopped being so stinkin' hot all the time we wouldn't have this problem. Men, always making things difficult! :P
