Flashback Friday

(Look, this isn't going to be an ongoing thing. I can barely keep up with life right now.)

So I remembered something funny Brandon made for me years and years ago, while we were dating and went looking for it. I couldn't find it yet, but I did find these gems.... (you can click on each picture to see it larger if needed.)

I had to write this short bio as a new employee when I worked with Brandon at Mrs. Fields. Carolyn and Glorianna were my managers.


Remember this? Well, here's an earlier B doing the same thing on a lunch break with me.


Oh joy, here's our wedding announcement...

This special card was my Mother's Day card from Brandon a few years ago. Care to translate?
I especially loved the heartfelt note at the bottom....



And on my birthday probably 4 years ago, I got home from work that night to find a couple birthday cards on the stove for me. One from a neighbor, one from my Mom, and this mysterious envelope from Jamaica...It looked like Brandon's Mom's handwriting, and she had been to Jamaica years earlier. What a mystery.

Here is the ugly cardfront
Here is the fabulous inside. I died laughing....

That's when Jude Law was my "boyfriend". I have had so many through the years. Oh I love Brandon. The back of the card had a little thingy at the bottom that said, "I'll never forget our first night"

I am a catch. Actually I am one of the few men in the city that has NOTHING wrong with me.

That is so classic. I love the Jude Law one. I wish he'd send ME a card like that for my birthday. But ever since he met you a few years ago he doesn't write me much anymore.

Really terrific post.

I love that you have no qualms (is that really a word?) about posting your full name, address, parents names, phone number and social security number on the world wide internet. You are a brave, brave girl. And oh yeah, I too was once in love with J.L. I've moved on.
