Dublin, Ireland 2003:
"How Do I Look?" I ask.
"I'd wanna marry you if all you had to wear
was old pajama tops and wornout jeans,
Babe" he says.
I turn my head and ascertain that on his handsome face indeed sits the utter confidence and satisfaction of having delivered the perfect
compliment to his future wife.

hmm...romantic! So is this how you two met? Makes me want to hear the full story!!

Agnes,
Geoff looked every bit a rock star in that V-Day post of yours. I am so darn sure now he is one. He rocks (all upper case), lady. I wish you two all the very best in life. Be blessed.
PS: I need to *bug* Jamie so that he can inform me the exact time his grandma updates her blog. I subscribe to her blog but gets to see only when I am signed in to my mailbox. I can see someone has a victorious smile on her face for you know what. Ouch!
*cheers*

In that picture, you look every bit what a rock star would like to see in his lady love. ROCKING, I say.
*cheers*

--> Mehreen, Soul is slacking off I am telling you, LOL.
--> Soul, :-))) LOL. I think the subscription email goes out at a certain part of the day.. I don't think it goes out immediately. I am laughing, because Geoff wears a suit most of the time, but yes, there must be a rock star underneath.
Posted by: Agnes | March 04, 2009 at 03:16 PM
Geoff is Axil Rose in a buiness suit, without the drugs, the long red hair, the serious rebel attitude, the tight pants, the bandana.......
Uh....Maybe Geoff just is just a rock star in a business suit, and no realationship to Axil Rose whatsoever...sorry Geoff.

Mariko:"What is it?"
Blackthorne:"Nothing, my love -- nothing. Go back to sleep.
Mariko:"No. I wish to be with thee".
Blackthorne:"Asleep or awake, thou art with me constantly".
Mariko:"In our private world".
Blackthorne:"Yes -- our private and special world.
Would that we could live there forever."
I'm yours, Babe
Geoff

Agnes, you are so beautiful!!! I want those shades too.
And I just adore your relationship. You are good people, heart warming good people. :)
I also agree with the work art space clutter, it is a must as I think, spaces have to have personality, good lived in space.

Totally cheating on the Blog Writing Month thing...
Posted by: Agnes | November 09, 2009 at 08:56 AM
Good cheat though! Anyone who reads wants to say. "Awww-how lovely, I wish my husband/boyfriend would say such lovely words!"
Posted by: Judy Harper | November 09, 2009 at 10:04 AM
Well I must admit, you HAVE got it.
Best of luck to you both.
Posted by: Donald Swarbrick | November 10, 2009 at 03:06 AM
I would say - You must try it out ;-)
Posted by: lostworld | November 12, 2009 at 10:29 PM
That was definitely smooth indeed.
i hope you two have many happy days together, may they be never ending!
I didn't think romance like that existed in this day and age, good to see it
