a thanks, and a funny story
Monday, January 16, 2006
Wow. Can I just pop in to say that I am totally floored by your comments??? I could kiss each and every one of you! Thank you so SO much for your kind words about my work (in both scrapping and designing) and for your encouragement. Talhey's comment made me laugh out loud. Chloe and pearls...aww yeah, that's me, baby! LOL!!! But seriously, THANK YOU SO MUCH! And for that, I'll try and come up with another little something for you this weekend. hee!
By the way, Lynnie also featured my Sweet Chloe kit in YouniquePhotos. So if those yousendit links expire, you can head on over to her site and get it too. It's in the freebies section. Aside from this kit, the Photoshop brushes I made from ages ago is also available. So while you're there, you may want to take on the first challenge in the site. Create a layout sharing your love story and you have a chance to win a GC in the store. Cool!
Speaking of Lynnie, I made another layout last night, and I used her Unforgettable kit. It had some really unique elements, and I made what I think is a very striking layout in its simplicity.

On the homefront, I have a funny story. You see, I like to annoy my husband. And I'm always on the lookout for more ways of annoying him. I believe it keeps the spark in our marriage. And the thing is, I like doing these annoying things before going to bed or just as he is about to enter sleep oblivion. Ok, from hereon, read this with an open mind. You are about to find out how strange I can be.
One thing I like to do is have our husband-wife quality time talk. When we're both under the covers, and he's found his warm spot on the bed, I bombard him with my wifely questions. So how was your day today, baby? What did you do? Didja have a lot of meetings? What was your meeting about? Is that a new project? Where did you guys have lunch? Was it any good? And so forth and so on. This annoys Mr. S like hell, but the funny thing is that he keeps answering. Then at some point I get bored and I tell him to keep quiet cause I'm trying to sleep. LOL!!!
Another thing I like to do is engage my husband is my nightly water ritual. Don't worry, there's nothing tribal or voodooish about it. So anyhoo, the way it happens is Mr. S is already in bed. He's all snuggled up under the covers and is warm and toasty and sleepy. Then I come in (from digiscrapping in the other room, most likely), turn off the lights, and join him under the covers. After a few moments of silence, I will then say that I'm terribly thirsty and would love some water. He'll then grumble and complain, and I'll put on my best puppy dog face, and in the end, he will get up and get me water. Then I'll take over his warm spot on the bed. LOL!!! But isn't he a sweetie???
And lastly, and this is by far the best among my annoy-ploys, just when Mr. S is about to step into sleep oblivion, I like to very veeeerrrrrryyyy sloooooowwwwwlyyyy put my little pinkie finger in his nose.
G'night, and don't let the bed bugs bite!

Its those idiosyncrasies that makes you doubly lovable and adorable to Mr. S! Keep the love alive! :-) Oh and hey, Hugh Laurie just won Best Actor in a TV Drama Series at the Golden Globe Awards! He was so funny during his acceptance speech. You should catch it if its shown there.
