My Sordid and Delicious Love affair: A Timeline
“I leave blogger for like five minutes and i come back and find u and Jamwall are an item? That is so rad.” – LBseahag, 1/1/09
Many of my regular readers may have noticed that I tend to mention Jamwall rather often on my blog; others have noticed years of electric silliness between us. What many of you may NOT know is that we have been secretly in love for a while now, have shacked up and are shagging like a pair of llamas in an open paddock. Here is a timeline of our evolving fervor:
September 16, 2005: Jamwall's first comment on my blog post about Magnetic Poetry
October 17, 2005: Jamwall does NOT turn up in my Tarot reading, and is consequently vexed.
January 2006: A secret blog-on-the-side opens, where many of us reveal our true selves and tell our life stories.
February 2006: Jamwall posts photos of himself. I spend 5 minutes touching his face on the monitor. I am instantly drawn to his rugged good looks and his maddening chin dimple. I post pictures of myself, and Jamwall later tells me he thought I was so pretty.
October 2006: Jamwall posts a "Blog Avatars Meet for Happy Hour" post that tickles me because I am included.
December 22, 2006: Jamwall offers to spread me on a cracker. A cracker of my own choosing.
December 27, 2006: Jamwall uses the word “spanking” in a blog comment. His bold choice brings our repartee to a whole new level.
January 2007: Jamwall and I begin a back and forth exchange about misusing condiments in ways that sicken our readers and blow through our free texting minutes.
January 27, 2007: I use the phrase “Minnesotan Manwich” in reference to Jamwall, in the famous Hive Mind post.
February 2007: Jamwall guesses my favorite word to be "Gobstopper" in my Stupidest Blog Contest Ever, and wins a prize. He later writes about it on our secret side blog, and I copy the post to my blog. Read it here.
March (?) 2007: Jamwall sends me gifts. I call Jamwall on the phone, and startle him. This begins the first of a few somewhat awkward phone calls.
Early Summer 2007: Jamwall, Calzone, Monkey and I begin to plan a trip to Boston.
August 4 2007: We all meet up in Boston and see each other face to face for the first time.
August 6 2007: Jamwall puts his hand on my knee and I have an epiphany. Later, we smooch.
August-October 2007: Jamwall & I talk every single day on the phone.
October 2007: We go on a 3-day vacation to Cape Cod. Numerous things happen which I will not discuss. Jamwall and I exchange cooking experiments. He makes Caesar salad. I make soup. We mail each other our inventions.
(November 2007 - August 2008): Jamwall visits me in New England numerous times. We go to New York City and he meets my family. He comes to my performance at Carnegie Hall. Somewhere in this time period, we decide we really like each other.
February 2008: I visit Jamwall in Minnesota. I have never been so freaking cold in my entire life. We have a blast. I meet his family.
July 26, 2008: Jamwall's birthday. I write (and post) a long and heartfelt Ode. I visit Jamwall and on a sunlit bench in a beautiful little park, he proposes. I say yes.
September 15, 2008: 3 years after his very first blog comment, Jawmall moves halfway across the country, into my house.
October 2008: We celebrate 1 year together in Cape Cod.
Now: We have mingled our stuff and our habits, are planning a July wedding for this year, and are dwelling in the bliss of the newly-smitten!!! I hope my favorite person can come to the wedding, because he was key in bringing us together. Besides encouraging us to free our minds and end self-censoring (the key to good writing), he gave us a forum in which we first broke the walls of anonymity and discovered that we were soul twins. We are forever grateful that the strange but wonderful world of blogging brought us together!!!

The Poisonous Gift: a photo essay
A short while ago a package arrived at my doorstep. This is most unexpected!!! I opened it to discover this sassily wrapped (a la Amazon) bundle. I opened it to discover a most wonderful gift, from none other than the marvelous Sleepy G!!!
Now Sleep Goblin knows how I loves me some angry letters (see here, and here, and here ...). She discovered this perfect stationery for the next time I'm pissed, which could happen at any moment! Looky here:
I can't wait to pen my next angry letter, with such a venomous quill ... and with angry stickers to close the final seal. Thank you, thank you, Sleep Goblin, for knowing me well enough to know that this is the perfect present!!!
