One whole year with the one I lurve
Leave me alone I'm lonely
Alone I'm lonely
I'm tired
Leave me alone I'm lonely
Alone I'm lonely tonight
Go away
Come back
Why can't I just have it both ways
Go away
Come back
I wish you knew the difference
Give me a chance to miss you
Say goodbye
It'll make me want to kiss you
I love you so
Pink, from her latest album (which I really like)
Derrick and I have been living together for exactly a year. For those who don't have a calendar in front of them, that has been ONE WHOLE YEAR of him knowing I make an apparent disgusting noise while I chew. Other than that, I'm perfect, as even my prolific farting only makes the plants grow prettier. Of course, I know that as soon as it is broiling hot in the bedroom, he'll want to cuddle, pushing his hot furry body next to my horrified limbs. He also doesn't eat meat, my dog loves him more than me, he kills any plants in his study, and he never really appreciates cars. I'm going to turn him in for abuse.
So this is love, cohabitation, and commitment. They never mentioned in the pamphlet the ENDLESS HOURS of sheer proximity. It makes me crazy! Zods! Get out!
Oh. Derrick left me alone in the house for a few hours, just like I requested. Where's my boyfriend? I miss him. I love him so. Where are my socks? Where's dinner? There's nothing to eat that doesn't require cooking. The couch seem so large and lonely when he isn't hogging half of it. Who is going to listen to my bad puns and laugh? The dog isn't finding my farting so amusing. I want to cuddle....
Yup. One year. It's a miracle he hasn't left me yet.

This is so cute. I'm just saying.

Awww. That is so sweet. In a disgusting way, of course.

Congrats! I'm totally with you about the nighttime snuggling/scalding. Jeff is first ice cold, and then turns into a geothermal plant.

Congratulations! (And this was a very well-written tribute to your first year together!)

Isn't there some Trekkie thing about even numbered movies being far better than the odd numbered ones? P!nk albums are like that.
Congrats on the one year. But please stop farting.

Congrat's! In ten years time, you'll look back on tonight and laugh. It's obvious from the way you write that you're both "best friends" -- that's half the battle right there!
PS My sweetie and I celebrate 19 years next month.

Awwww...sweetness.

Congrats, boys.
Cohabitation is a huge adjustment, but it seems like you're both doing fine. Flatulence aside, of course.

Congratulations on one year!

happy anniversary!
So true. The instant they're out of sight, you forget the fact that they won't eat anything out of the ocean, that they don't know what a '64 Buick Riviera looks like, that they don't know any lyrics from Pippin, and you call their name and you hear their voice and the world is right again. Just wait till you're celebrating your 23rd. (And, to his credit, he let me drag him to Gym Bar in Chelsea on Sunday to root for Italy, even though he's not really into World Cup. They won! We'll be back there Saturday @ 3PM for the final game: France vs Italy)

Aww...congratulations! What a lovely tribute to your sweetheart. You're both really lucky to have found each other. (As for the farting, maybe stop eating so many beans/broccoli/cauliflower/bran? hee hee hee...! Now *that's* love!) xoxoxo

Maybe he finds the way you chew endearing? Or is it enduring?
Happy anniversary, dudes!

1. Congrats!
2. Many happy returns!
3. Isn't it inconvenient how they don't tell you what real love is like? The constant, endless SHARING? The farting? The day you realize you're having a perfectly pedestrian conversation in the bathroom while one of you is taking a dump and the other shaving or flossing or scratching the genitals, and neither of you has even batted an eye? About how you can't stand their little foibles, but grieve for them when he's gone for even a few days?
4. Now go away so I can miss you. ;-)

I know this is a bit late, but congratulations on your anniversary. Finding that special one to put up with all of our quirks is a pretty big deal.
Especially if they fart as much as you.
