Happy anniversary, Snookums!
Yep, five years ago today we walked down the aisle in Vegas and you guys watched live on the Internet. FIVE YEARS! How crazy is that? I was about to say that those kids would barely recognise us, but that’s not true. Where we are right now is exactly where that girl would’ve hoped to be in five years, and that’s really something I should appreciate more. Thank you, Snookums, for being my best friend and for sharing my adventures. I couldn’t imagine it any other way.
We’re off to the Boathouse tonight to celebrate, and our wedding rings are scheduled to be delivered next week. (Yep, we’re finally getting rings. They are the nerdiest rings in the history of the world. You’ll love it.) I told the Snook today: “The traditional fifth anniversary gift is wood. Feel free to snicker.” To which he replied: “The Todd approves.” HA!

@gilmae I suggested something similar to our team lead, but he doesn’t feel he inspires the necessary fear. And shrinkage.
@thisismywww Americans never were very good at geography. 😛
@Ascasewwen Only thing about Bella I liked was how she kept trying to get Edward to DO IT already. (Too bad he insisted on getting married.)
Confession: Yes yes, there’s lots of stuff #bellashouldhaveread, but I read VC Andrews & Jean Auel and I turned out okay! Trashy books FTW.
@knitabulous In Chippo I chuckle at the girls in gym clothes puffing away. They must have a hard time doing cardio. Keeps them skinny tho!
RT @ebertchicago: My review of “The Twilight Saga: The New Moon” is online. One star. Charisma by Madame Tussaud. http://j.mp/CTlAI // Yikes
@ebertchicago Your link to the original Twilight goes to the wrong film! Poor Paul Newman doesn’t need to be tarred with THAT brush. 🙂
My summer goal of eating as many mangoes as possible is going well. #2 down the hatch!
Sue Sylvester nearly made me cry during #glee tonight. (The episode with her sister.)
@bellsknits Over, if only because the cleaner folds the end so nicely and every fortnight I get to pretend I’m in a hotel.
@bellsknits It’s the only fancy thing she does, but I love it. 🙂
Lesson of the day: Do not make passive-aggressive joke about never getting flowers. Your husband may have been just about to order them.
@brodrigu That’s what I said, but he then provided a screenshot with about 6 different florist tabs open. Whoops.
@brodrigu It was slightly more convincing than that. 😛

I am having a Sue Ellen Mischke moment.

@Opheli8 I would, but they haven’t followed me back yet so I can’t DM them. 🙁 #ggd
@Opheli8 Wow, @VenessaHunt and Mansour in the same week. Steve Jobs is probably getting all tingly right now.
@gilmae Me too. This is also why I don’t use lists.
Good day at Spudds. Got 100m on the rower and made a shot in basketball!
Did you hear a scream? It was me. It’s not every day you get an email with the subject line: “My uterus is perforated.” (No, not MY uterus.)
FYI: When you use “uterus” in a tweet, you get auto-followed by women’s healthcare professionals. Apparently.
Just downloaded Star Wars: Trench Run. http://bit.ly/3ukZ9g AWESOME. I shot down some TIE fighters but crashed on my 1st run in the trench.
Just grated a massive chunk out of my right knuckle and – in all probability – right into the shepherd’s pie. Extra protein!
@bainsight I’m holding out for the graphic novel version. 🙂
Just completed a 5.65 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/31NgtD #RunKeeper

HULKAMANIA!
“Sydney photographer angered after equipment smashed in Hulk Hogan press conference brawl.” That is the best headline I’ve read in a long time. HULKAMANIA IN SYDNEY, Y’ALL!
