‘member that time when bryan [my husband bryan, if the last post confused you] nicknamed me “sammy” in high school and i knew we were finally friends because i had a nickname from him?

‘member how i made him and the other brian a pie once and he named me “pie master sammy” otherwise known as p.m.s.? ‘member how he called me pms for like two years until a certain someone slapped him and told him not to call me that anymore?

‘member how bryan then started calling me lisagrace and i was all like, whoa, he totally likes me now and then he asked me out like a month later?

if you want your girlfriend to know you like her, i wouldn’t recommend calling her pms under any circumstances.

happy anniversary month to me!

‘member that time i dated this one guy named brian? ‘member how he broke up with me and then like 10 months later i started dating his best friend who was also named bryan? ‘member how i got married to the second bryan and the first brian was in our wedding along with another dude named bryan? and ‘member how one of my bridesmaid’s husband’s name was also brian?

try to keep that straight.

happy anniversary month to me!

‘member that time when i decided i wanted to switch to gmail, because of it’s awesomeness and betterness than yahoo and whatnot? ‘member how i had been dating bryan for about 9 months and decided, well hey, we’re probably getting married, so why don’t i just make this thing permanent? so ‘member how i created a gmail account for lisagracealsbury @ gmail.com without actually knowing that i was for sure going to marry bryan, because it’s not like we’d talked about it or anything?

yeah, i’m glad that worked out for me.

happy anniversary month to me!

‘member that time when i bossed my littlest brother adam around all the time, but i gave him money to compensate him for his troubles? ‘member how i would send him on all sorts of errands for me, be it running to get me a candy bar from char’s, the neighborhood gas station, or simply a glass of ice water from upstairs, meanwhile i would just dole out the washingtons like a queen?

‘member how at the height of my laziness, as i was lounging on the couch, i asked adam to go to the bathroom for me, because i just couldn’t get up to go?

well, he obviously couldn’t serve me to that level [without a catheter], but he was still such a good brother.

ps: happy 19th birthday to my baby brother adam two days ago!

‘member that time when me and my two older brothers, luke and levi, were riding home from char’s with our most recent candy purchases?

‘member how luke was all like, lisagrace, there is a guy chasing us, so you better start riding faster? ‘member how i was all like, whatever, you’re so stupid! and he was all like, i’m serious! and then i looked behind me only to see a shady-lookin’ white guy running after us?

‘member how luke was so heroic by slowing down to ride behind me so i’d be safe, and levi led us safely through the shortcut through the backyards of some houses and the shady guy stopped running after us then?

my big brothers may have beat me up a lot, but they loved me all the same.

ps: happy 26th birthday to luke in three days!
