Your PERFECT Date
It was a clear black night a clear white moon...no wait that's warren G.
It was a warm summer nite. We went to dinner right accross the street from his apartment at a resteraunt called "La Cave". The resteraunt is downstairs and their menu is a big push cart that they wheel around with big chunks of raw meat, fish and lobster on it. It's kind of like a vampire lair. I basically told him my life story (laid everything on the table) and he hid everything from me. I drove him to his apartment and he was like "see ya later". It was ackward... but the chase was on.
Your PERFECT Engagement
Our perfect engagement.
For our 2 year anniversary I planned a cruise to Ensenada Mexico. I brought my new reversible bikini and sun block, he brought his laptop because he had to finish some work. On our third day we woke up early to lay out by the pool. He brought his laptop to get his work done, I brought a magazine. We got to the upper deck and commenced our day with a Mimosa or two (each). He forgot about his work. But then he surprised me and said we had an appointment with a massage at the cruiseline spa in celebration of our 2 year. We got the spa center and started filling out the mandatory forms. My masseuse came to get me first. He was a small, hairy, bald fellow(ironic) with a super thick accent. He sat in me in a private room and prepared me with a little speech about how important my health is, my liphadic system and how this hot stone massage will release my toxins. Whatever! Then he proceeded to tell me how hairy he was and that he breathes rather heavily. *EWWH* I couldn’t help but think how uncomfortable this was going to be. He laid me on my front side and started to aggressively massage me with his hairy arms all while breathing in deeply and heavily. It was soOooO uncomfortable. Then he had me flip over to my front side and placed a warm compress over my face. He started at my toes… but this time his moves were gentle and his massage strokes were longer and smoother. I started to relax. He moved his way to my left hand and I thought in my head “Now this is how a massage should be”. I started to drift into a dazey relaxed mode. He moved over to my shoulders and ever so slightly lifted up the towel and whispered in my ear “Will you Marry Me?”. It took a full second to compute and when the words finally made sense in my head I was disgusted and jumped up with my karate hand up, about to slap the pervert, until I realized it wasn’t the small hairy bald man… It was the man whose eyes I’ve come to love, whose touch put me at ease, whose words brought me to tears. It was Joe. Joe and the masseuse had traded places half way through. And he just asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. My eyes whelled up with tears. He brought out the box that held the ring… and I started to hyperventilate. My tears turned into full faceut gushing water and I made the real ugly crying face – where your eyes start to squint and your mouth turns upside down, drool wants to come out and your nose starts to leak. I was probably at my ugliest moment, not having shaved, showered or any makeup, and crying on top of that. But in that moment I felt most loved by future husband.
She's PERFECT because
Jeannie eats everything he doesn't like. She picks at him like a tender loving gorilla in the mist. She doesn't let him down when he's rock climbing until he reaches the top. She plays the piano for him until he falls asleep. She sits on his lap while he "drops the kids off at the pool". She stops working to listen to him talk about anything, even though he knows she's busy. She’ll be there for Preston.
He's PERFECT because
Joe dresses her in the morning. He lets her put her favorite nail polish on him. He let's her give him a uni-brow with her eye lash extensions kit. He takes the blow of the next ocean wave while holding her up over the water so she doesn't get wet. He stares into her eyes without fear or regret. He’ll try anything once. He’ll tell her she’s skinny and gorgeous even if she has a muffin top. He is the best father.
Your dream for the PERFECT life together
Our perfect life will be married together, living in a house with our son and a baby on the way. Our bird, Tango will finally learn to talk. We’ll have a piano for Jeannie to practice playing music. There’s a studio where we would both paint abstract art together and hang up pictures of our random photography that we’d take with our Nikon. We’ll sit on the suede love seat sofa and stare at each others features while we both hold a sketch pad and try to draw each others faults, features, lines, wrinkles, sparkles, eyes and smiles. We’ll laugh, cry, smile, and make love. We’ll be inspired by each others creativity and keep learning and growing from each other. He’ll work at a job but continue to pursue his own business and she’ll be a big account exec. at a major advertising firm but always make sure she comes home early to cook gnocchi, rib roast, and rum cake for the family. We’ll invite over Ann & Paul, Lisa & Steve, Gwen & Roque, Kerry & Josh, Zach & Rachquel, John & Mandy, Tom & Dion, Charlie & Bi, and all their kids to come hang out by the pool. Both our parents would come to eat and play with the kids. We’d both learned how to lead climb in the nearest rock climbing gym. We’d still talk about when we first met and still look at each other with respect and love.
Our perfect wedding colors will be
Purple, violet, blue and whites
The perfect wedding flowers will be
white and purple calla lily
The perfect wedding music will be
Michelle Tumes. Center Of My Universe.
Our first dance will be to
Neutral Milk Hotel. Love you More than Life.
The guest most likely to cry:
Jeannie's mom Khue and sister Anne. Joe's mom Pam, sister Mandy and brother Tom.
The guest most likely to embarrass themselves
Draggi
The guest most likely to give the PERFECT toast
Tom and Anne

About a year ago Joe was on a lot of business travel and with all our time apart I decided I'd spice things up for his return. My friends (GK and CB) had concluded that the best way to do that was to pick out some sexy lingerie... The whole idea was completely foreign to me. Under the advisement of my sister, I went to the lotions and lace lingerie shop. I picked out what I thought would be a show stopper. It very intricate mesh outfit with garters, hoops, and straps. Wanting to perfect my act I practiced my moves for an hour each day to the song "buttons" by the PCD. This routine went on for about a week...I wanted it to be memorable. The day of we went out for dinner and drinks but it turned out to be more drinks than dinner. We staggered home and it was time for the big finale. When we got to my bedroom I dimmed the lights and turned on the music. In my best Marilyn Monroe voice I pointed to Joe and whispered "You, stay there" and slipped away to the bathroom. There I spent what seemed like forever, trying to make heads or tails of my outfit as I drunkenly fumbled through all the snaps and hoops. Nervously after making my entrance, I immediately pounced on him....After all my practice the short meeting concluded with me uttering what I thought was I love you which was quickly followed up by me spewing what must have been 10 gallons of vomit all over my honey bunny. That was HOT! Till this day neither of us can look at lace without cringing.
To be brutally honest ... when I first met Joe I thought he was hot and that was all there was to him. Later I found out that behind all that hotness, beneath those stylish clothes was a man, and beneath that man was a .... nucleus. On our second date, I gave him a tour of my house. He peeped in my room for a second, just long enough to catch a glimpse of a polar bear painting I was working on. The very next day I received an email from Joe saying ".....and now I can't sleep because of the image of a one-eyed Polar Bear burned into my head!" along with an attachment of a digital drawing he had made of my painting.
Since then, I've found that Joe is more than hotness, he's talented, smart, funny, loving and soo sooo much more than any man I've ever met. Here is some of the stuff that we've drawn, painted and sketched together.
Below is an email exchange between Joe and I indicating how much we text mail each other.

Dear Jeannie,
I don't know if I'm ready to start Emailing each other... I don't know, everything is just moving so fast. At first I let you text me and .... well, lets be honest... it just felt like you've texted before. A lot! It's not that I don't like texting you, I do, I really do... but maybe we should take it a little slower. I've been meaning to tell you how I've been feeling, but it all just happens soo fast. It starts with "Hey Joe, what's up?" and before you know it my box is full. (ok, that line sounded bad.lol!) I hope you don't hate me.
Joe "Sore fingers" Marini

Joe~
I need to tell you something. I've been holding off to see if maybe I wasn't, well actually hoping, and anyways...........*sigh* "here goes nothing".......
I went to the clinic yesterday and took the test. It came out positive. I knew we should have been more careful and used protection. I told you I wasn't on a spam blocker. I know your not ready for this, but it's my life and I'm keeping it.
If you have ever watched the movie "Jeux D'Enfants / Love me if you dare" (click each link to view a clip) our relationship is much like that. "Cap ou Pas Cap" is the running theme throughout the film, in which in which a young couple play a game of dare. A game which soon spirals out of control, ending in paying the ultimate price for love.
Joe and I constantly dare each other to do random things. He would dare me to pinch a total stranger's butt and I would dare him to pull the girl's hair in front of us while we're in line at the super market. He would dare me to climb a fire escape to the top of a building and I would dare him to walk through the haunted Alexandria Hotel in DownTown LA. We would both dare each other to sun bath nude on the top of a rooftop.
By our 3rd date I was daring him to hug random strangers
and he was daring me to take pictures at 6 in the morning at the beach with homeless people who lived out of their car
I approached the odd couple as she was looking for her bra and panties in her trunk. Note that she is in a bikini, a robe, and has flowers in her hair at six in the morning
I was sitting in their car with them. They later asked us for some spare change and if we wanted to go to a party on starbucks street.
We dared each other go pick some strawberries in the middle of the nite.
I dared him to sip my latest concoction of au jus sauce, orange juice, sugar, wasabi, eggs, and champagne. It helped clear his migrane.
We dared each other to dress up like the people in the poster at target during the US winter olympics.
Joe dared me to stroke the Emu.
After six months of dating, Joe bought me this Churchhill's of London Carousel box (just like the movie), as a gift. Inside, at the bottom, was a note "Cap ou Pas Cap". <3
.
"To win this game you need a pretty box, a pretty girl, and to hell with the rest."
