Final Five Proofs

Random Thought of the Day:
You can't put fun in a box for kids. However, if you give a box to my kid, you've given her instant 'fun'.
Quote of the Day:
I never watch tv...it's too trashy even for me.
--Oscar the Grouch

Dirty Word of the Day:
Fluff: (n.) the odoriferous passing of human or animal gas worded in such a way that children are not tempted to say the ugly word that rhymes with 'hart'.

The following is the completion of a previous post outlining the ten proofs that Matthew and I have truly been married 10 years.

6. When we were dating, I naively came to the conclusion that he was one of the few human beings who never fluffed (refer to above for definition). HA!! I kid you not---the other morning he fluffed three times and matched pitch with do--re--me. He was quite proud of himself.

8. After moving several times in our married life, some aspects of sentimentality have disappeared. For instance, when he hollers during the process of packing, "I found another sweet note that you sent me in high school. Where should I put it?" I respond, "Chunk it!"

9. A romantic gesture has become scrubbing the tub.

10. Antiques roadshow is a source of bitter contention on Monday nights. How can I compete with a set of Circus toys circa 1910?

Well, there's the proof--sure, we still get accused of being college kids. Yes, I still have the same hairstyle and,thank goodness, he still has all his hair. But there have definitely been subtle changes. The biggest change of all---I love him with even more intensity than when we first said 'I do'. Sorry--I felt obligated to end on a sappy (but truthful) note.
