I played the game twice. The first time I had 5 words from
shironiku, this time they're from
speedball.
1) Love: Even though we're about to embark on separate journeys, I am very happy about the love that
speedball and I have developed and continue to share. We make awesome friends, we make an awesome team, and we work and play well together. Every form of love that we have shared has been gratifying and comfortable, and now we'll continue to cultivate the deep friendship that we've always shared, with a little more depth and nuance than before. We both love each other enough to continue to support one another into whatever comes next. He remains, and as far as I'm concerned will continue to be, one of the best friends I have ever had, and I will always love him.
2) Coupling: I love this show!
speedball introduced me to this fantastic bit of BBC awesomeness before we even started dating. There was a patch of time when we were both unemployed, and we'd hang out and watch episodes that he'd downloaded and laugh our asses off. One of the first purchases we made as a couple was the whole series (only 4 seasons, sadly) on DVD. Now they've joined the ranks of "background noise" shows as we know them back and forth. We'll leave them on while we're doing other stuff just for the friendly noise and get the occasional laugh. And every now and then there's a moment when we have to stop what we're doing and pay due attention.
3) Monica: Guilty as charged! Y'all remember the show "Friends", right? Well I am definitely more than a little bit Monica. Not as much as my messy roomies think that I am, I swear, but even I have to admit that occasionally at a time during the show where the laugh track indicated that something she had said or done was over the top, it hadn't dawned on me that it was anything weird. I promise that there were times at which she made me roll my eyes, too... but probably not as often as a normal person should've.
4) Vomit:
Alright, he asked for it. Actually, this was totally my fault. When I told him I was giving him this opportunity, I pointed out that he had some of the lesser known words that might mean something to me at his disposal. Okay, so vomit. When we were driving up to Oregon for Thanksgiving weekend in... '06 or '07... I can't remember... anyway, I got car sick. My own doing, I was trying to edit photos on my laptop. Point is, I finally realized that a regurgitation situation was inevitable, and requested that he pull over. Well, we were stuck in traffic at that moment, and couldn't get over in time. Mind you, my laptop was still on my lap. When the moment of truth came, I slammed my hand over my mouth. Kids, take my advice, don't EVER try to prevent yourself from throwing up in that manner. I thought I'd killed myself! I swear I burned out part of my brain with stomach acid! Not to mention blowing a blood vessel under my nose causing an unfortunate looking bruise for a blessedly short period of time. Alright! Who's hungry?
5) Wedding: Ours was AWESOME. When
speedball and I tied the knot, it was an HP Geekfest. We had a sorting hat poem to explain the seating at the reception, tables themed with the 4 Hogwarts houses, oh geez... it was all Potter. There's a whole album dedicated to it on my Facebook page if you haven't seen the pictures. And in addition to the HP geekery, there was a fair bit of AOKP influence, most notably in the form of Tusking and a very special performance of "Carry On"... also on FB. We had a lot of fun, and a lot of extremely awesome friends who came together to make the day run smoothly.
