(June 11, 2007) Communication Breakdown

I must have learned it as a child, but when I am particularly needy (read: whiny), I take the opportunity to whine in a second language. Hence, my boyfriend needing to know basic Spanish to understand my needs. It's gotten to the point where when the boyfriend hears me say...

(March 15, 2007) March Madness!

My boyfriend and I don't really appreciate the game of Basketball, but he loves NBA Jam on SNES and I like to fill out brackets. I forgot to join in my office pool, but high off my Oscar winnings, I think I have this NCAA basketball season figured out. I...

(November 12, 2006) Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away

It's become obvious to me that my boyfriend's parents are uncomfortable around me. Part of this is because I'm uncomforable around them. I know this, because we talk to each other through the dog. Or to the dog instead of each other. (Also, I'm not too hot on this dog...

(February 06, 2006) Happy Anniversary, Babe! Let's Go Snowboarding!

Yes, it's been a year since I asked my boyfriend if he wanted to be "in a relationship" on Facebook. To celebrate the occasion, my boyfriend spent hours watching me fall on my ass teaching me the basics of snowboarding. He is the most patient, loving man I know. The...

(December 02, 2005) Oh, this one is a keeper!

Me: "Woah, smell my armpit; it smells bad!" Bf: "Okay." Me: "Ewww, this tastes terrible. You try it!" Bf: "Alright." Me: "I think this food went bad --taste it!" Bf: "Mmmk." Me: "Look at that fat guy! His butt is totally hanging out of his pants." Bf: "No." Me: "Ugh,...

(November 20, 2005) A Close Call at Goodwill

I decided that I would help alleviate the pain of my next move by going through my closet and giving away bags and purses I don't use anymore. I put a bunch of purses and bags in a black trash bag, including a pair of sneakers I had only worn...

(November 01, 2005) Girls don't fart... Duh.

Boyfriend and I have spiced up our relationship by introducing each other's farts. Yes, we expel intestinal gas through the anus around one another. And, yes, it's as sexy as it sounds. We actually said we were going to do this three months ago. It just took this long for...

(October 27, 2005) Boyfriend Makes Me Little Love Treats

I love when the boyfriend makes his own little baked treats in the kitchen with "cake in a box." It's no less special to me and is oh so delicious. I especially enjoy it when I ask, "Hey, how long have the cupcakes been in the oven?" and he jolts...

(October 23, 2005) How appropriate for Halloween!

Me: Am I scary? Boyf: What? Me: Why are people scared of me? Boyf: You're not scary. Me: ... Boyf: More like strong. And vocal. Me: ... Boyf: And very beautiful!...

(October 16, 2005) Sex or Football?

There must have been some really intense college football games yesterday, because Boyfriend was just TOO into the television. I tried to talk to him, blocking the screen, but he kept maneuvering so he could see the score. "Would you rather never watch football again or never have sex again?"...

(September 26, 2005) We dream of bags...

I love how when the boyfriend and I think of things we most want, we both think of bags. Except I'm more Birkin and he's all Lowepro. Sigh....

(September 03, 2005) Football season is here

...And I guess I won't hear from my boyfriend for a few months. On a similar note, the announcer keeps saying "tight end." Hehehe....

(September 02, 2005) Boyfriend's birthday at Rock Bottom Brewery in Portland

I don't think Thomas gave me enough time to smile. I see Eric, Torn, Ethan, Mike, a bit of Dave, Shawn, and Ashlee. Maybe you can't tell by the photo, but that was a big cake. Torn and Shane laughing over something hilarious or they're just drunk. [Photos taken...

(May 21, 2005) The One About the Geeks and the Nerds

I ran into a very funny/interesting/amusing craigslist 'rant & rave' titled Why Geeks and Nerds Are Worth It... I don't want to take credit as the author, but I also don't want it to disappear into the 'CL Unknown.' So, copy and paste, here you go: Why Geeks and Nerds...

(March 14, 2005) Me to bf: "No, honestly, what's wrong with me?"

Saturday, 16:00. Ate pad-thai, which I made myself. Boyfriend liked it, but I felt it had too much oyster sauce. Made me feel queasy. Saturday, 20:30. Ate burger (w/ tomatoes, lettuce, bacon, avocado, the works) and mashed potatoes and fried rice and banana bread and... well, I ate way beyond...

(February 07, 2005) "So, we're like a thing now?"

I have a new boyfriend, who is an old friend. Initially I thought it would be weird, but now I'm really happy. It's nice to connect intimately with someone who is your best friend... I don't know how to explain it. It still catches me off guard when he just...

(January 12, 2005) Funny Donut Story

I have to write this entry or I'll forget about this moment forever. This morning, I quickly ate a chocolate donut bar with milk. I attempted to eat a jelly donut directly following, but I was just too full. So I started by licking all the powder'd sugar off of...

(June 19, 2004) He Always Makes Me Smile

me (8:15:43 PM): I love you!!! him (8:15:56 PM): aw me (8:16:02 PM): yeah me (8:16:03 PM): you love you too him (8:16:08 PM): i love me too him (8:16:12 PM): i love you too me (8:16:12 PM): yay him (8:16:16 PM): you rock me (8:16:18 PM): I know him...
