He’s So Adorable
Posted on July 22, 2006 by Ching under Life.
Brian has this habit of sending me plagiarized love poems to brighten my work day. I pick on him about it, but I think it’s cute. Anyway, here’s one that he sent me last week.
TO: Me
FROM: BrianA poem to make you smile and to let you know I’m thinking of you. I love
you baby.I love you for these reasons
Never changing, never stopping
Growing stronger through the seasonsYour touch is like that of no other
Warm, Caring, and full of love
Hoping our life is one touch after anotherLove at first sight, we felt it both
The feelings are strong like none felt before
So, with this poem, I take this oathTo be your friend, lover, and soulmate
Cherishing the life, future, we will createTo love you like no other
To need, and want you foreverBe by your side always
Walk with you on this path called life
Be your shoulder when you need to cry
And be faithful, and honest,
in our days ahead
As long as our love stays~I love you always and forever~
This was a somewhat lengthy poem so I figured that he probably didn’t write it. I busted him on a couple of other plagiarized poems in the past. We both agreed that it’s the thought that counts and that’s true. I like to give him a hard time, though, so I said:
TO: Brian
FROM: MeThat’s really sweet, baby. Now, tell me honestly. Did you write it or is this another plagiarized poem?
We laughed about it when I got home. He explained that it was, indeed, plagiarized but he did modify it a little to make it his own. He said he had to remove all the references made to physical features because it originally said something about blonde hair and blue eyes. I told him I was glad he made the changes for it would’ve been a dead give away. He cracks me up sometimes.
Anyway, Brian may not be the most romantic man on the planet but he is certainly the most adorable. 🙂

You’re All Invited
Posted on July 22, 2006 by Ching under Flickr, Food and Drink, Games, Poker.
Brian and I have decided to have an all-you-can-eat taco challenge at the Harry and Webb Taco Shop on Monday (Brian wanted me to clarify that participants will need to buy their own meals; just in case anyone gets the wrong idea). Brian and I are both pretty sure that I will win because no one can eat like me. I can out-eat just about anyone. Except maybe for Dill. If he shows up, I’ll lose for sure.
So if you want to witness an exciting taco-eating contest, feel free to join us. I think all-you-can-eat tacos are served between 4-8 pm. Brian and I aren’t sure about the times, though. We just know it’s in the evening.
Of course, that’s the same night that APL is holding the televised championship poker tournament. So if nobody makes it we will understand completely. We figured that we will probably stop in to cheer Michelle and Adelfa on. They both qualified to play in the tourney.
The tournament is open to spectators so you all should stop by. You can also watch it at home. It’s supposed to be broadcast life on local channel 5. It will also be webcast but I’m not sure what the web address is. Check the APL web site for more information.

Tucker Max

Brian is hooked on Tucker Max. He hasn’t been able to put the book down. I’ve never seen Brian be interested in anything without pictures so this book has got to be amazing.
From excerpts that Brian’s read to me, the guy sounds like a jerk. He’s a pretty hilarious jerk, though.
Anyway, he has to return the book to his coworker on Monday so I’m getting him his own copy. You can get a copy from Amazon for under $10. Hopefully, Brian will post a review soon.

Iccee Props — Pun Intended
Posted on July 19, 2006 by Ching under Flickr.
This one is by Iccee. Flickr folks are so creative!
As soon as I started seeing everyone else’s contest entries I started to panic. Everyone had cool, creative ideas. I felt totally unoriginal.
Like this one for example. I had no idea we could use props! I guess all is fair in Flickr coloring contests. =P
I kept yelling to Brian, “Baby! Check this one out!” Everything everyone else posted is great! I’ve never had so much fun in an outage situation. Flickr should go down more. Just kidding!
The only thing Brian could say was, “Holy cow! How long was Flickr down?!”
JULY 21 UPDATE: Guess what. Iccee’s entry made the sample list! Go, Iccee! You can find all the properly tagged coloring contest entries here. Happy browsing.

Making Disasters Fun
Posted on July 19, 2006 by Ching under Web.
So Flickr is down right but the brilliant folks at Flickr manage to abate the angry mob by giving us busy work. This is further proof that Flickr rocks.
When the Flickr web site comes back up Brian and I will be showing off our respective works of art. Stay tuned.
P.S. This is what I call a great DR plan.
