With so many pictures of other people on my blog, I thought it would be time for you guys to see some more of me. After all, that is what the world needs right… joking. Anyways, I thought I’d take a more personal note to this blog post for a number of reasons, but mostly because I’d like to talk (brag) about how awesome my girlfriend, Allison is. Here are some little known facts about Allison and myself:
- We enjoy nachos 100% of the time. We even reserved two domain names (www.deleriouslyfull.com and nachobuzz.com) to blog about our affinity for nachos. You’ll see we have yet to actually post anything there. Our goal is to eventually get free nachos from restaurants in order to review them.
- Allison has a funny thing about arm spasms. Sometimes she likes them and says things like “my arm is spasming again… that’s my workout for the day”. Other times she wants to destroy her arm because it bugs the crap out of her. My goal is to get one of these reactions on video
- I love the temperature in the car a bit colder than she does. In fact, I think she just likes it blazing hot. I believe her quote was, “I don’t turn down the heat until my eyes are dried out”. Yup, that is how hot she likes it in the car. Whenever she drives, I always roll down the window for hopes of retaining some sort of normal body temperature. This inevitably ends in her rolling up the window and me trapping my arm in it. I always lose the debate over temperature and have learned not to wear any coats in the car.
- There are many debates I actually always lose to Allison and my married friends say to just get used to it and that the quicker I learn the better. The one debate I will not give up, however, is the usefulness of the iPhone. Allison is sort of a purist and tries to make fun of me for using my iPhone all of the time. I think she believes that phones are for talking and texting. Part of me thinks she is just jealous of the superior Bejeweled capabilities. In fact, whenever I leave the dinner table, or walk away from my phone at any time, I always find her attempting to, and eventually completing the task of beating every high score on every game. It drives me crazy how she beats all of my high scores so quickly. Here are some examples from Doodle Jump and Bejeweled (all of my games look like this):
- Also, make sure you check out Allison’s Etsy Store to buy some awesome crocheted hats.
Now to explain a bit of what I did on Valentine’s Day. It was basically a very random and very fun hodge-podge of events that included a speed dating challenge, target shooting with a .22 rifle, catch phrase, squash carving, poetry/acrostic competition, shuffleboard competition, and a few other challenges. Take a look at some of our date:
After a late night adventure up to Rocky Butte Viewpoint in Portland, Oregon Allison and I decided to return at 6:00am the next morning. Here are all of the photos we took on Valentine’s Day as well as the next morning.
