“How much do you love me?” He is just walking in the front door and hanging up his coat. I’m in the kitchen, multi-tasking between facebook, twitter and figuring out what to make for dinner. “Um.

March 13th, 2010 admin I’m having a little issue of sorts at the moment. Well, it’s not really all that little. It’s actually starting to be a HUGE bone of contention. One that I’m about to beat the crap out of my husband with. Both the bone AND the contention. Poker. Yeah. I hate it. I’m so freaking over [...]
Another Love Song I Refuse To Write For Our Anniversary
July 21st, 2009 admin I’m going to re-post the anniversary post I wrote last year. But I’m going to add some things… Today…is our 7 year anniversary. Happy Anniversary! I’m NOT going to write about the fact that I knew, relatively quickly, that you were “THE ONE”. That’s just flat out embarrassing. I REFUSE to tell everyone how much [...]
