I threw a wish in the well… Don’t ask me… I’ll never tell

I know I know… The prompt said a song I love… But this song isn’t necessarily my theme song of the week… or month… in fact it gets stuck in my head and wraps itself in there until everything I am doing (Walking, talking, dancing, doing dishes… washing in the shower ha!) gets done in rhythm. 

Smallest child sings it everywhere… We sing it together at the top of our lungs while grocery shopping… we dance to it in the car… I sing it to Small child and Mr. Amazing just to hear their groans of disbelief that yet again it is going to be stuck in their heads…

My Christian (its his name… and his spiritual belief all wrapped up in one) bemoans it … and I post yet another MEME on his wall quoting it

My Day Job (The place I go to earn a living… while I wait to be discovered and become a renowned… well anything) did a cover of it with all kinds of cheesy dance moves… some including a forklift… and so I bring to you… Call me Maybe!

I threw a wish in the well,
Don’t ask me, I’ll never tell
I looked to you as it fell,
And now you’re in my way

Are there even real wells anymore? Okay, I am sure there are! But not anywhere I have been. and she’s not a princess in a Disney movie, She is no Snow White.

I’d trade my soul for a wish,
Pennies and dimes for a kiss

I don’t know the value of a soul, But I am willing to bet it is worth more than a wish for a kiss… you’re sounding a bit easy

I wasn’t looking for this,
But now you’re in my way

What do you mean you weren’t looking for this? All you have done is sing about looking for this! Did you forget?

Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here’s my number,
So call me, maybe?

Uhhhh From a wishing well to a cheap bar? okay.. Im with you… no… no I am not

It’s hard to look right,
At you baby,
But here’s my number,
So call me, maybe?

It’s hard to look right at him? What is he? Someone has been drinking from the crazy sauce

And all the other boys,
Try to chase me,
But here’s my number,
So call me, maybe?

Other boys are chasing you… But you want the one you cannot stand to look at? Daddy Issues

You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
But still, you’re in my way

He gave you nothing and he’s in your way… in your way of what exactly? This makes so little sense I want to punch you in the face

Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here’s my number,
So call me, maybe?

That’s it! I’m sick of this maybe business… Do you want him to call you or not? This relationship has so much drama before it’s even begun… I hope he never calls you because the break up song for this will be UNBEARABLE! (Taylor Swift get to writing it! Pronto!)



 

… Get ready to lose your appetite

I can’t believe I am saying this already … but … I am.
Happy Anniversary Mr Amazing.
On 11-11-12 we will have been married for a whole year.
It’s here.
And it came fast. Just look how times flies.
We are no longer newlyweds… in the traditional sense of the term.
We are now just an old married couple.
And I love it.

I love waking up next to your handsome face each day. I love falling asleep beside you each night. I love crashing on the couch with you after a long day. I love sneaking sweets with you… when we both know we shouldn’t be… but are anyways. I love knowing that I can be myself around you. And I love knowing that you are yourself around me. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I love your kind eyes. I love your big hands. I love your unruly hair that tickles me when you kiss me. I love your teasing me when I misspell and mispronounce certain words. I love the look you get on your face when you concentrate. I love the way your bottom lip gets sucked in when you think too hard. I love the snort laugh you burst out only while watching TV. I love you.

Thank you for being my best friend… Thank you for being my biggest supporter and most constant fan. Thank you for working so hard for our family. Thank you for spoiling me. Thank you for making my world a better place. Thank you for being you.

The best thing I ever did was marry you. I will never regret it. I can’t wait to see what the next year holds for us. We have been so busy making adjustments to our new little family in the past year…  I can’t imagine it being any better …  but somehow it always is.

…. We all need a little birdhouse

You know when you can’t sleep all night, and your screaming in your head in frustration, but your body is coiled up with tension… Yeah that… And then ten minutes before you alarm goes off after you have checked the time every five minutes for six hours … You fall asleep… That… Then the alarm goes off and you spring out of bed like its on fire …. And try and figure out how to get through the day …. That… Then you walk outside to drive to work… in this…

And by the time you get to work… the temperature changes have made your windshield look like this….

(I like to think its smiling at me)

Makes the perfect day for a song like this….

Much Love!

Listen… If I tell you I shaved my legs… Im hitting on you..

G-Chat
 me:  I vote we go pick up Indian together when you get home…. I shaved my legs this morning
Mr. Amazing: you shaved, so we should go to Indian? trying to understand the logic
                       What would have happened if you didn’t shave?
 me:  Noooooo …. listen… If I tell you I shaved my legs… Im hitting on you
Mr. Amazing:  if I tell you that I shaved my legs, I am hitting on you?
 me:  Yes!
Mr. Amazing:  And I shaved my legs haphazardly with my fingernails, how hot is that?
 me:  Uhhhh okay… I think my leg hair is growing in.
Mr. Amazing:  wha? already? damn it
 me:  I am left speechless
Mr. Amazing: Well the alternative is I get take out and then eat Indian at home, or just not get take out at all
 me:  Noooo I decided last week … And you ate onions
Mr. Amazing: As it should be
 me:  It was a disaster
Mr. Amazing:  yes, and they were wonderful
 me:  Oniongate 2012
Mr. Amazing:  lol I don’t want to think about it, I was so sick
 me:  Soooo this whole thing is on you, Maybe you don’t even want Indian, You were super sick
Mr. Amazing:  Indian it is
 me:  or even Himalayan kitchen if you want?
Mr. Amazing: You like Indian better
 me:  Actually I’m good for a change, as long as what ever you bring me is super crazy spicy
Mr. Amazing:  Indian it is
 me: … it all sounds equally good, as long as its hot, I kinda want the chicken… I might be delirious
Mr. Amazing:  Okay, chicken? seriously? do you want to think about that?
 me:  No, it sounds good
Mr. Amazing:  let’s go through this
 me:  But it has to be melt my face off hot
Mr. Amazing: first bite… good
                                  second bite… good
 me:  LMAO!
 Mr. Amazing:  third bite… okay
                               fourth bite… meh
                               fifth bite… gross
 me:  I wanna eat it
 Mr. Amazing:  (first bite)
 me:  ROTFLMAO!
 Mr. Amazing:  so… chicken?
 me:  Yeah!
 Mr. Amazing:  Uh huh
 me:  Hot!
Mr. Amazing: I am not ordering until 30 mins before I leave, so let me know if that changes
                             hot
                             yes
 me:  I dont think I slept well last night… My eyes are leaky and I think this is all very funny

… the collection of characters I have in my life already is pretty amazing.. Just imagine if you will.

Its Writer’s Workshop time again… This weeks prompt was fun! Just because I can imagine us all in some coffee shop… or neighborhood bar… retelling the days.

Share 5 Fictional Friends you’d want in real life. (Movie/Book/TV etc.)

 

 

Harry Potter! So what if he’s a little whiny sometimes? Harry would still be a kickass friend. Think he’d speak Parseltongue if I got him drunk enough?

Bilbo Baggins! He has even better adventures than Tom Sawyer! And a better sense of humor, better jewelry, better-insulated feet. Just better all around!

Lara Croft!  She is  a bad ass, and she always seems to find the treasure she is looking for.

Optimus Prime! He is so Cool! and he is a car… what more could you ask for?

And lastly… but not least by any means…. (You all think I’m going to say Captain Jack Sparrow)

Sally Owens! From practical magic… we would be BFFs!

 

Now I’m going to state the obvious! How cool would my life be? Christmas presents from Lara Croft? Hey Optimus! I’m stuck in traffic! Help!

All that being said, the collection of characters I have in my life already is pretty amazing. I wouldn’t change them for anything!!!

I just wish Mr. Amazing could turn into a car sometimes 🙂
