Dirty Little Secrets - Part Deux

When people ask us how we met, Brian and I say that we met through a mutual friend.

Technically, this is true. However, we are aware that this implies we met in person.

Nope.

I actually spotted him on Paula's MySpace page, thought he was adorable, and sent him a message. I had known Paula for several years working at Mervyn's, and he knew her through the teaching credential program at SJSU.

So, technically mutual friend.

We got to know each other through AIM conversations, and found out we had class right next door to each other @ SJSU. I met him in person for the first time after bumping in to him outside of class.

And by bumping in, I mean I purposely went to class early and pretended to have an important phone conversation out in the hall so I would be there when his class let out.

Why did we do it? I guess when we first started introducing one another to our respective families, telling the story to our parents/grandparents about how we met on MySpace didn't sound very appealing. I wouldn't imagine my grandpa would have taken him very seriously.

Thus, glossing it over as "through a mutual friend" seemed so much easier. No one questions that.

And technically, we weren't lying...right?

Dirty Little Secrets

I LOVE Grey's Anatomy. I've seen EVERY episode...

Even worse...It makes me cry almost every week.

Especially this new Izzy/Denny stuff....

God, I hope they aren't slowly writing Izzy off the show.







I also love Desperate Housewives...

Soap opera for prime time...

I know it's lame, but I can't help it.











Ok, this one was a little harder to give up. I love The Little House on the Prairie. I've seen pretty much every episode of the show that was on back in the 70's & 80's.

I also own seasons 7,8, & 9 on DVD...AND I've read all of the books.







Harry Potter...I've read all the books and seen all the movies.

In fact, I OWN all the books and all of the movies released thus far.








I have worn Dr. Pepper lip gloss since the 7th grade.

When my mom let me start wearing makeup, I used to layer dark brown lip liner with this lipstick called "buff beige."

All my friends looked like clowns back then.

Once I left my "clown phase" I started using this. I hate lipstick, so I'll wear this as long as they will make it.







Speaking of the 7th grade, I used to love Sailor Moon.

In fact, among some of my friends, we all kinda identified with certain characters from the cartoon.

I was Sailor Jupiter.

I even went through this short phase where I thought I could draw. I drew the eyes of anime characters.

The problem was, I wasn't very good at it.

It was a short lived phase.



And finally...I've developed a bit of a crush on Edward Norton.


I figure it's ok because he looks just like Brian:



Seriously, don't they look alike?

What are your dirty little secrets?
