Happy Sweet Six

Hey you handsome nerd over there! Yeah, you - the one wearing the shirt with an inside computer joke that I still don't get. So, do you remember what's coming up this weekend?

I meant besides The A-Team movie!

Yep! Six years ago you were standing at the front of a little church, waiting for me to walk up the aisle in my ridiculously huge wedding gown. You looked me in the eyes and told me you loved me and wanted to be with me for the rest of our lives. :)

Happy Anniversary, Babe! I thought about writing something witty or lovely, like a poem, for you. In the end, laziness or perhaps exhaustion or more likely extreme lack of talent prevailed. And so I present you this most appropriate poem, lifted from a much more talented and nerdier one than myself:

Like two foci of an elliptical
Your eyes entice me
Cause my cardiac muscles
To palpitate
As I estimate the distance
Between us

I’ve arrived
At the conclusion
That you’re sitting
Approximately 5 feet and 23 centimeters
Away from me
7 and one half millimeters closer
Than yesterday

As you sit there
And I calculate your potential energy
I find myself wishing
That I could change
Y= mx + b
Into y = Unext2me
You are my complementary angle

I long to whisper
That Newton’s laws
Were created just for you
Of course that’s not true
But logic doesn’t matter anymore
Because my feelings for you are growing exponentially

Like radiation, you penetrate through my skin
You watched my veins branch like fractals
While I reached for the pencil that you dropped
You listened to the logarithm my heart produced
At a near inaudible frequency
As I returned the pencil
To it’s rightful owner

Like absolute zero
All molecules within me halted
In that moment
Your centripetal force sent me spinning
And though they say opposites attract
You didn’t even utter a thank you

It figures
Seeing as the probability of you noticing me
Is exactly .41 in 10,731
But I long
To cosine my name on a love note
Addressed to you

You are the Pascal behind my triangle
And you can count on the fact

that I’ll calc-u-later

I love you, Chris, always and forever. xoxo
