This is an actual text conversation between me and The Man the other day while I was at work.
Me: I love you. SOOOO much!
The Man: .... how come? (nice eh?)
Me: Cause you're awesome.
The Man: I love you soooo much too.
Me: I am extremely happy that you used the same number of "o"s as I did. It's okay that you didn't use an exclamation mark. I know how you feel about them. I even limited myself to one*. Just for you.
Me: SEE how much I love you?
The Man: LOL
Me: Can I buy a llama?
Silence.
*The Man feels that multiple exclamation marks are silly. I feel that if I use four of them, it means that I am four times as excited about the sentence than if I had only used a period. And even though I was exceptionally excited about my sentence and pretty much everything else happening around me that evening, I restrained myself because that's what you do for people you love.
I didn't end up buying a llama because the website was far too complicated and I had a very limited attention span that evening. Also, even though it was a charity thing that I was trying to support they wouldn't have given me a tax receipt because I am Canadian. And while it isn't about the tax receipt, it would be nice to get one that says "Thank you for your purchase of a llama".
I did however find e-cards on the same site and I sent three of those, but only two made it to the recipients, which made me sad, but I didn't pay for the cards.
I feel I won.
