Very, VERY focused… So, Nick gets a bit obsessive at times. Yeah, let’s not beat around the bush. Focused is when you’re concentrating your energy on one task. Obsessed is when you are concentrating your energy on one task in excess, to the exclusion of all else. That’s Nick all right. Get him interested in [...]

So, one thing Nick & I have in common is that we’ve both already planned weddings, but neither of us have actually BEEN married. Granted, his was much, much more recent than mine, given that … this month is my 9th anniversary at ending my engagement, but only Nick’s 1st. So, this morning we were [...]

Apparently it’s meme week. I can play that game. Here’s the dirty one: # Is there anyone on your friends list you would ever consider having sex with? I think this is livejournal or facebook-aimed, as … uh, this is a blog. What friends list? But, is there anyone on my lj friends list or [...]
Why I love this man to death

We actually had working hot water tonight, so I decided to take a bath. God, I love baths. After a while, Nick came in to chat with me. Brought me a bowl of grapes, and was feeding them to me while we chatted. That’s pretty awesome, but it gets better. After a while, I tease [...]
How bad could it be?

So I’m actually really amused by all the relationship memes, and as I read them keep thinking “I wonder if their partner would agree with that?” So I mentioned to Nick that I’d love to see some of these written from their partner’s perspective, and perhaps he should write his version? He just gives me [...]

I saw this one on Dooce, and it amused me. So I answer. Disclaimer: I FULLY EXPECT that Nick’s answer will be totally different from mine. Possibly even the EXACT OPPOSITE. While we are an Awesome couple with a capital A, we don’t always agree. Giraffe. What are your middle names? Mine is Mary. Nick’s [...]

Voila! 1 Kissed anyone one of your facebook friends? Hah. Like, half? I like kissing. 2 Been arrested? Arrested? No. ridden in the [...]
Ways you can make me grouchy

Pet Peeve #1: Trying to ruin someone elses good time. I don’t care if you celebrate birthdays, christmas, anniversaries, valentine’s day, steak & blowjob day, Tuesday, whatever. Celebrate or not. However, the minute you start going off on people who DO celebrate, regardless of their reasons, you have gone from being non-partaker to just plain [...]
My First Slowcooker

So, a little detail on the crock pot I picked up, and why I think I picked well (although hell, I won’t really know til I’ve cooked anything with it… first attempt is tomorrow morning!) I bought a VersaWare Pro — due to the lack of good navigation on Crock Pot’s website, you have to [...]
