yesterday, today and tomorrow

so yesterday was Leo's birthday.
With all my daydreams of coming to Brussels to take care of Leo (make him breakfast, etc) I can tell you, when Leo woke me up to lock the door after he went to work (at almost 9ish) I crawled back into bed and STAYED there until 11.30.
his house is cosy (well, its a residence and not really a proper appartment) I took a shower and Leo came over for lunch! He brought food from outside so we could eat! we had a good time and then Leo went back to work. At 2.30ish, I decided to go out because I wanted to get Leo some stuff for his bathroom. I'm very proud of him, he's organized in his house and cleanish over all. But his bathroom was very bare and the tub needed scrubbing. I headed out confident, which was silly because I didn't know where I was going or that it was cold! I had forgotten that about Brussels. I walked as far as I could go, and found that Leo wasn't kidding when he said it was expensive. I finally made it to the Moroccan guys store and I bought the cleaning stuff I needed. I even bought the deodorizing thing for the toilet (you know when you flush), scrubbed the tub, dusted the surfaces and cleaned his mirrors. He was very happy when he got home! We opened his present (the french learning material I gave him) and his parents card. He was very happy. :)
We celebrated his birthday by eating in Pizza Hut! :) that was awesome! I really missed Pizza hut!
We wanted to walk to the Grand Place but it was so windy outside we made it less than half way and turned back! Leo got a lot of calls from Greece and his parents while we were out and even at home. while eating at pizza hut, his ex made his phone ring. Leo didn't have credit so he didn't call her back. He did panic a bit, because we were home opening his gift and Portugal (the ex) sent him an sms, "I arrived. I'm coming home" that's all she said. Leo was like, lets go quick, before she comes over. She knows where I live! Crazy Leo. He says there isn't anything there, so who am I to judge?
today I had lunch at Leo's office. I got up shortly after he left for work,as I wanted to go around the grand place and just chill. have a belgian waffle, walk, take pictures. My mom sent me an email. I added my brother onto Leo's skype list. When I got out of the shower, ralph and left a message on Leo's sykpe asking if I was here, because mom called the OFFICE and they told her I was here. Its all good. I wasn't really keeping it a secret. I just didn't have the time to tell them. Anyway, we had a long chat and before I knew it, it was almost 12. Leo had asked me to leave at 12 so I could be at his work by 12.15ish. It was 4 metro stops away. The sun was actually shinning today. I was so happy. That didn't really last when I stepped out. It was so damn windy and cold! The sun didn't help that much. I saw Leo's office (pictures to follow later), on the 22nd floor!
It's really impressive, outside his window you can see Central Brussels.
I spent the afternoon, aimlessly walking around, finding the Grand Place and the peeing statue.
I walked home tired and exhausted, but at least I bought all the pasalubongs I wanted too.
Tomorrow (i.e. today,) I'll post about separately.
I love Leo so much, I can't believe how happy I am, and how happy he makes me.
