My Sister: No, I didn’t see the antlers. Why’s he blue…
My Other Sister: Because he’s cold
No, I don’t want an award or a pat on the back or a gift certificate for unlimited foot rubs just because I, a dad, did something that moms do all the time, because I know that makes the moms crazy – or as I like to call them, “the ladies,” but I do so ironically, which means they can’t call me sexist because I’m only pretending to be sexist while being, in fact, totally sexist. I love irony.
I also love my wife for taking care of most of the birthday party planning over the years and being wildly successful at it.

Today is a very special day here at Long Awkward Pause because it marks our first year anniversary!
*Throws confetti*
*Spits out confetti*
After all the hard work and bantering that’s gone on over the past year, we’ve decided to conduct a pop quiz today to see how well you think you know the staff.

But *shakes hand reluctantly anyways*
BUT, I thought I’d go ahead and say I LUUUUURRRRVVVV you too :3 And say you are one of my most favoritest people on WordPress and I always look forward to reading whatever you have to say!

TOODLES PEEPS.
