Living out loud in the Carolinas

Category: married life

  • I had just come in from taking the pugs out in the back yard. Me: Hey, have you seen we have a grasshopper hanging out on the hibiscus? CSP: You mean Fred? Me:  Sorry, I wasn’t aware y’all were so close. CSP:  He’s cool.  He let me pet him.

  • CSP brought me tulips the other day to cheer me up while I was under the weather with double ear infections and strep throat. He’s so good to me. <3

  • CSP & I have a bit of wanderlust in us right now. We’ve always lived where we’ve lived because our parents took us there. Currently we live in a suburb of Charlotte. We’ve both been in the Charlotte area since 1990 when (separately) our parents moved us here. Periodically we’ll talk about where we might…

  • Dear Self, I’ve noticed that you’ve made some poor choices lately.  Let’s try and get out of that mode.  I’ve made a list of things you should avoid or improve upon. -Clipping your toenails at 3am with a headache and slightly blurred vision will only result in loss of 3 toenails.  Are you really surprised? …

  • I got a new phone today. We arrived at dinner with my family about 20 minutes early. And a cell phone store happened to be right next door. So we went in and were out in time for dinner. I got the Blackberry Curve. I really like it. While we were taking care of business…

  • Today is my Grandmommy’s birthday.  I have a doctor’s appointment this afternoon then CSP & I are headed down to meet up with the fam for dinner to celebrate Gmommy’s bday.  Going out to eat again reminded me of something Jacob said while we were at dinner in Florida last Friday.  It was a Chinese…

  • I read about this group on Dooce and joined.  It looks interesting and I would love it if some of you joined too.  It’s a flickr group where you video yourself reading a list of words each week.  That way we can see if you say crayon or crown, carmel or caramel.  I love hearing…

  • CSP came in from taking the pugs out to potty. Kiki just took the biggest dump, you wouldn’t believe it. Oh yeah? It’s almost worth showing you. Then he looked me up and down. But you’re not wearing pants. Well, can I see it from the window?  (he was so excited about it I felt…

  • Today is our 7th wedding anniversary. In May we will have been together for 10 years! According to the mighty internets, we are supposed to exchange wool, copper or desk sets today. Um…I think we’ll skip that.  We do have plans to go out to dinner and watch a movie and basically just chill out…

  • At the doctor’s office for my pre-op appointment we covered a lot of important topics: Dr: Have you had any previous surgeries? me: Yes. Would you like me to work my way back from the most recent? CSP: (leans in toward doctor) You’re going to run out of space there. Might wanna get another sheet…
