Week 5

A gun. A badge. That's all it took for me, ladies. Back in September of 2007, I first started talking to Officer Hallmark. Yes, I found his number so immaturely on "Everyones Connected", and called this strange man late at night while hanging out at a friends apartment one weekend. (does anyone even remeber Everyones Connnected?)  After messing around with him, I finally told him I was some girl from Indiana. "A really cool girl he had never met... yet" was my words. How awesome of me. *Rolls eyes* But hey, It worked, right?

After talking a bit and asking what this strange man does for a living, he replies "I'm a police officer". No lies, my 20 year old heart skipped a beat or two, and a very interested smile jumped right on my face. My friend "ooed" over his response a little bit too. Don't make fun. Over 3 years, marriage, a house, a dog, baby, and a lot of bills later I still am super intrigued when he walks out of the bathroom in full uniform, while the scent of Gap cologne/uniform smell (not sure how to exactly describe that one) FILLS the air. He's just so darn CUTE. And I am a bit cautious of flirtatious women, (after dealing with a couple CRAZY exes of his, so stay away. Thank you.

I love you, Officer Hallmark. Things aren't perfect on this journey of ours, but I have to say it just keeps getting better and better. :)
