A Vday poem and Friday Confessions, Olympic Style

Happy day of love y'all.

In honor of today's love, here is my favorite poem for you all. I posted this years ago, but its so cute!
I love you more than applesauce,
Than peach and a plum,
Than chocolate hearts,
And cherry tarts,
And berry bubble gum.
I love you more than lemonade,
And seven layer cake,
thank lollipops,
And candy drops,
And thick vanilla shake.
I love you more than marzipan,
than marmalade on toast,
For the love of pies of any size,
but I love you the most.
Jack Prelutsky.

Confession time. With the Olympics going on, I have been, well, not the nicest.

1.Apparently ice dancing is a thing, and they flail their hand about quite a bit. So I have been walking around the house and office flailing about saying "do you think that is worthy of gold?"

2. I have been heated debates about some of the so called "sports." I cannot understand how curling is in the Olympics. It rates right up there with rhythmic gymnastics.

3. I have been watching the Olympics on our iPad during work. So, not a ton of work has been done this week.

4. I have been cheering against other countries.  During ice skating, when its not America, Canada,  England, I am rooting for the athlete on the ice to fall. I spent one 4 minute period chanting fall, fall, fall, fall.

(Looking back, I do feel a bit bad, because these people put in so much time and effort to their event. Over all, I am proud of all of the athletes.)

Fess up friends.

Oh the Olympics. Not a big fan, but good to hear that other people are enjoying and keeping up with the events.

My confession is I actually did not clean the house on either of my days off and am leaving it all to the bf this time!

I love your humor. It's totally my style. I get why curling is an Olympic sport because its huge in my hometown. There are actually 4 people on the curling team from there. Here's my confession: I wanted Shaun White to lose because I think he's way too cocky and corporate.

Two more confessions: when we watch the male figure skaters, we always comment on whether we think they are gay or straight and we compare their performance to Blades of Glory. Lol
