Anniversary and Blogger’s Block

Today (well, yesterday actually since it’s past 12midnight!) marked Flip and mine’s fifth year of being together as a couple. (insert “aww” here. LOL) Thinking that last year I made us a confectionery anniversary video, this time a part of me feels compelled to post something grand about us. Something with pictures/slideshow or with sweet and corny words, letting him (and the rest of the internet world) know how much I appreciate him and how I learned to do so even more as the “us” turns five years. But another part of me doesn’t want to head in that same direction. I don’t know, maybe it’s the private and the anti-monotonous parts of me that still exist. Sure, I’m happy as a clam to be with Flip for the last five years and I’m proud as can be of that. But this time I want to keep things simpler in the blogging department. No love song playing while lovey-dovey pictures of us are slideshowing. I’ve already plurked, twittered and posted the yey-it’s-our-5th-anniversary-today sort of thing in my Facebook status. That and some pictures that are yet to be taken when we celebrate belatedly, and uploaded, are already more than enough to keep me from turning my pride and joy of my love life to spamming, not to mention boasting. No hullaballo here.

So for this year, I’ll just reserve my grateful and loving words (heh!) privately to the man himself. But I guess it’s safe to say, “Thank you, Lord!” and that I also want to thank our family and friends for making the whole ride (and the ride to come) a lot more enjoyable. Really, I do feel thankful to them also. Haay, I better stop before I get carried away even more into making this sound like a speech at a wedding reception! Blah. I’m crazy and weird that sometimes I even surprise myself. OK, moving on…

In a different note, it’s been a quite a while since I’ve done this. Updating my blog, that is. No wonder I’m struggling with words here. It’s like the words-for-blogging producing part of my brain has rusted. Well, hopefully this is another one of those kick off starts/writing sparks fuel of mine that will motivate me to start writing again, and again and again and so on and so forth until I reach another blogger’s block.

This is what happens after a long dry writing spell. When I start writing again, I tend to metaphorize things. For the life of me I don’t know why I tend to do that. Then I just end up sounding peculiar, and weird. Well, tomorrow’s another day for writing. Better stop blabbering now and end this paragraph. Even putting an end to a sentence is something I now seem to have forgotten how to do. *sigh*
