punchdrunk lovesick singalong

christopher, christopher, christopher (sing in a style a la "maria" in west side story, and always say it thrice. everything good should be said or done thrice).

my nbf.
(for those of new to the scene, nbf= "new best friend"...let's keep up with our acronyms people. republicanism is not a reason to allow yourself to become prematurely old & lose touch with today's youth)
it was love-at-first-sight...really...to use the most over-exhausted cliche in the english language. i can't help it. wait, let's be a little more insightful. it was actually love-at-first-backhanded-mumbled-comment. i saw something that was disturbing or just plain wrong (think "denim tuxedo" or "gold crosses riding the waves of some fat greek guy's chest hair"...puke) & i said something to myself that falls in the "unkind & mean" department (look, we are way more US weekly than the washington post) pointing out these obvious errors in judgement. and from my right, i heard a similar under-the-breath comment.

& that special, irreplaceable someone whispering inhumane things? christopher. (but christopher, they are people, too!!!)

we knew this was a forever kind of magic when other eccentricities were made self-evident. the logophilia (its contagious). the verbosity (i mean, honestly-why use 3 words when 300 is so much better? brevity is not, dear reader, the soul of wit. trust.) punchdrunk lovesick singalongs. captain obvious observations & irrational fears. this list doesn't even begin to capture the je ne sais qua of our meeting. kinetic kismet.

own it.

************************************************************************************ something to revisit after we have had additional time to reflect.
a coffee table book
subject: cataloguing the quantity & variety of san francisco denim offenses-including but not limited to: excessive tightness (enhancing all kinds of lumpy horrors), zipper length (under no circumstances should this exceed 7-possibly 8"), skinny jeans on men (yes, i will not let this go, it offends me on every level), etc. this could be a real $-maker.
