Oh no, not with a person! PLEASE! As if that would ever happen!
No no, I'm in a relationship with a website-search-engine-tool-bar-thing. It's called StumbleUpon (http://www.stumbleupon.com/download_autostart.php). We're very happy. Thanks for asking.
Anyway, StumbleUpon and I have been seeing each other for over a year now.
WOW. That's the first time I've said that outloud. You hear that StumbleUpon? We've been together for over a year? I want you to know that this past year has been one of the fastest of my entire life. You've supported me and challenged me. I'm a better person now because of you and I thank G-d for you every. *kiss*
Well this just got really awkward, huh?
Anyway, yesterday I was stumbling and I came across a website full of Grooks.
Yes, Grooks.
You might be wondering what a grook is. Here's a link to the wikipedia entry on them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grook
And here's an example of a Grook for those of you who are too lazy to click over to the wikipedia entry (really people? c'mon!):
Love is like a pineapple
Sweet and undefinable
I don't know where these Grooks have been all my life (sorry, StumbleUpon. for the record, we never made it official, ok? I'm still single on facebook for crying outloud!) ! ?
I love these little poems! They really speak to me. I tweeted one, and I even put two different ones as my gchat status. When I got home last night I shared some with Jamie and she fell in love too (sorry, Shane). So we decided that we would try and write our own today.
Here are Jamie's:
Becky P----- loves to accessorize. Jewelry, shoes, scarves, bags and then some.
But imagine if this passion grew in size. A walking boutique she would become.
She looked down the street, saw gardens in bloom and decided she'd make her own!
So she went downstairs, stole some mint, and started to garden alone.
The landlady found out, she was angry to say the least
Jamie had single-handedly ruined her mojito feast!
Well, that's not really a grook. Let me try again here
A vodka tonic, is quite simple: vodka, lime and soda
After a rough day of work who could resist? no one, including yoda!
UGH!
'Tis a gift to be simple, 'tis a gift to be free
'Tis a gift to have a delicious cracker and some brie!
Paperclips, pencils, scissors and tape
Useful tools for a 'work'day escape
~~*~*~*~*~~~~
Jamie is clearly more talented at writing these than I am. Good for her! Look for her book of 7,001 Grooks coming in the Fall of 2010 (don't worry. you can write 6,999 by then!)
Feel free to comment with grooks of your own! HAPPY almost 4th/NO WORK day 3rd! WOOT!
Oh my, You;re pregnant and sixteen. You probably should have wrapped it
You thought you'd be homecoming queen. But that thought, well I hope you scrapped it
Here are mine:
