Background info:
1 – Our morning routine is such that after the alarm goes off and a couple of snoozes are hit,
2 – I'm playing Animal Crossing. In this game, you can buy/find stationery to send letters to other NPC's and other players. My town has four players – named Jen, Rob, Lisa, and Jeff. I'm the only one playing this game, I have the four characters so that I can get More Stuff faster. Me, obsessed? Completely.
So, the alarm goes off, snooze is struck. Rob gets up a little earlier than usual. I pull the covers over my head. I hate mornings. He goes downstairs. I doze for a while, then struggle out of bed when my morning dreams get too weird. I go into the computer room, which is closed. Huh, says I. He's usually up here by now.
Rob comes upstairs, wishes me Happy Birthday, and tells me what he's been up to: he was trying to get Rob in Animal Crossing to send Jen a birthday card. He was thwarted at every turn! AC Rob didn't have any stationery. Neither did Jeff or Lisa. Sometimes there'll be stationery at the dump, or at the lost and found in the police station – not today. He couldn't go buy any, 'cause it's the 31st – which means raffle day and the store is closed.
How freakin' cool is that?? He doesn't play this game. He's watched me play it, and half the time it puts him to sleep. Talk about your warm fuzzies – I have such a cool husband. :)
Very, very cool indeed.
And happy birthday to the last of the January babies!
*smooch*
Thank you!! :)
I’ve had a very lovely birthday this year. :)
John told me about this on my way home from work today and it helped cheer me up! That’s pretty darn sweet. :)
Although it’s kinda fun to think he was sneaking to play it just because he didn’t want you to KNOW he enjoyed playing it. :p
It kept me smiling today!

Yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s not the case. :::snickers:::
Yep… your hubby is very cool. And I take full credit for you two being together. So there. =p
You certainly can take a huge chunk of credit for it!! :)
And happy birtday to YOU!!!
How ya been, anyway?? :)
LOL! Naw… I like to joke that I take credit for it, since you met at my party, but I know you two would have found each other eventually. You two seem to be made for each other.
Hey thanks! I’m still waiting for my dad or brother or any of my RL friends to realize that yesterday was my birthday. =p
I’ve been ok. I’m still alive and kicking anyway. LOL! =p
Oh yeah… and happy late birthday.
Happy Belated B-Day!
