My Darling Dy’ ............ 10 - 10 - 10
Once in a Hundred Years
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They say "It can not happen to You,
And Seeking it will only make you Blue,
Because the odds that it's Equivalent to...
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years..."
Looking for ... That One so Fine,
That in your Heart, will be Divine,
Forever with Me and Always be Mine,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
Finding One ... Who is so True,
(Perfection being Far and Few),
Without Ever a Need, to have to Redo,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
Placing that One ... Into your Heart,
Knowing that We will Never Part,
Trying to Both have a Fresh Start,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
Listen for Special Words Each Day.
Whispers of "I Love You" is what You'd say...
Knowing that You'd take My Breath Away,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
So I looked until my Eyes were Sore,
For that One Person ... I could Truly Adore.
But That Perfect Someone, that I Quest for...
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
They'll tell you, "Please, Do Not Believe"
"For it will Only… make you Grieve,
"It's Something that You Will Never Achieve."
because it ...
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years..."
Now Take my Hand and You will See,
That there's a Life, where We can Be.
Because Forever… with a Guarantee,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
I Claim this Day ... of : ' Ten - Ten - Ten ' ,
(It doesn't Happen... "Every Now and Then")
And my next Chance to do it Over Again,
Happens ..... Once in a Hundred Years...
So With this Ring, I Commit to Thee,
Forever and a Day, is my Fee...
May I say to You,
"" Will You Marry Me ? ""
................... Once in a Hundred Years...

* Well,
... My Lady Stone and I are Finally Engaged,
as of 10 / 10 / 10 and plan to get Married
on 12 / 12 / 12 .
* I am as Much in LOVE with Her Now,
as I was when I first started this Blog
"" LOVE of a ROCK and a STONE ""
..... All the way back in 2005 !!!
( Probably even MORE in LOVE with Her,
.... if that is humanly Possible ! )
*...We've been through Births...
*...We've been through Deaths...
*...We've been through Happiness...
*...We've been through Tragedy ...
*...We've been through Prosperity ...
*...We've been through Poverty ...
* My Lady Stone and this Rock...
Have been through more of Life Together,
than Some Couple have been through
that have been married for Years.
* When Life comes Full-Circle,
And Smacks You Right in the Face...
You get a Totally Different Point-of-View of this World.
We had some tough Decisions to make...
And We decided that We want to make them together...
*My Stone and I have seen a lot of LIFE....
And know that we want to see the Rest of Life together.
* Karma Works in Both Directions...
It just takes its own Sweet Time to show itself !
* Well,
All I can Say Right Now is ...
.... that I am the Luckiest ROCK in the World....
.... And have the Most Beautiful STONE as my Fiancee !

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
___________________________________________________This is a PIECE that she WROTE about HERSELF...
(..a WHILE ago..)
(My COMMENTS are in the (BOLD RED BRACKETS)... ENJOY...
___________________________________________________*** I think that the best thing I have going for me is my easy-going nature and my ability to easily make friends, and KEEP them.
(TOTALLY LOVABLE)
*I am open and honest right from the start, the problem though is I often expect those I talk to to be the same and that can (and usually does) lead to problems.
(ALMOST DID)
*I have difficulty moving past friendships with men and into something more serious.
( YES, YOU do, & as I do with WOMEN )
*I wear my heart on my sleeve.
(WELL, BETTER ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES, or YOUR HEART can't BREATH)
*I believe you're only born once so you might as well do whatever you want to do in life because you're never going to get a second chance.
( I'm GLAD that YOU took the CHANCE in LIFE)
*I can't live without warm slippers.
( hmmmm ? WHAT ABOUT ME, in WARM FUZZY SLIPPERS ?)
My high school aptitude test said I was best suited running a bait shop or working in an underground mine.
( Whoa..... no COMMENT on the FISH !)
*I try to play by the rules but I've learned over time that it’s okay to bend them a little.
( SOMETIMES, YOU'VE GOTTA' BEND the RULES, just to STAY SANE)
*I'm a kid at heart and love going to toy stores. (Weeeeeeeee .... !)
*I think that chocolate should be a food group.
( And WHITE CASTLE hamburgers !)
*My parents have been married over 35 years, but I don't think I'll ever find something like that myself.
( O.K. .. MINE are MARRIED almost 50, and ...
............................YES BABY... YOU FOUND it !)
*I have one younger brother and I think he's the bees knees. My nephew is the apple of my eye, and I'm going to be an Auntie again this fall! .
( Its GREAT to LOVE your FAMILY)
*I can talk for hours about deep subjects such as sexuality, politics, computers, or relationships and just as easily discuss why pepsi is better than coke. (DON'T ARGUE WITH ME! IT IS!)
( I FELL in LOVE with YOUR ABILITY to CONVERSE.. on any TOPIC ... uhhhh ... ESPECIALLY TOPICs of a SEXUAL NATURE)
(( uhhh ...COKE not PEPSI))
*I have never "regifted" a present.
( Well, I'm GLAD... I WOULDN'T look GOOD in a BLACK CORSET)
*I want to go to Mardi Gras one day.
(And I KNOW WHY)...... (__@__)(__@__)
*I love to crochet. I start things but often don't finish them.
( ummm? I LEFT these TWO TOGETHER , because YOU seem to FINISH 'most' of YOUR PROJECTS .. *uhhh ... HOPEFULLY YOU FINISH ME*)
*I'm awful at remembering names, and forget telling me to remember something, unless I write it down.
( ROCK... R.O.C.K. ... ROCK ... WRITE it DOWN !)
*I cry at happy endings. I love walks on the beach, cozy sparking fires, and watching shooting stars.
( YOU ... are my HAPPY ENDING ! And I LOVE WATCHING YOU )
*I think nothing is as good as a good belly laugh.
(LAUGHING keeps YOU YOUNG)
*Coffee is a Great and Holy thing.
( STAR*BUCKS ANYONE ? )
*I often can tell what people are thinking...even if they don't want me to know.
( hmmmm? ... If YOU can TELL what I'M THINKING... uhhh .. oh NEVER MIND...)
*I believe that openness and communication are essential in a relationship.
( IT's a MUST )*I love to cook, but hate doing the dishes afterwards.
( I LOVE to COOK also & we'll BUY a DISHWASHER)
*I am a romantic sap and constantly read romance novels and watch romantic movies, but I don't believe that love exists as it does in the books/movies.
(I'm a ROMANCE ROMEO myself, BUT I DO BELIEVE that ROMANCE EXISTS ... EXACTLY like it is in the MOVIES.. sighhh)
*I believe there is no such thing as too many candles.
( NO AMOUNT of CANDLES could EVER EQUAL the FIRE in My HEART for YOU)
*Cats are little people in disguise.
( My PUGS are ALIENS )
*My favorite flowers are carnations and daises.
(I'll still LOVE My ROSES )
*I believe that the things that happen in life, happen for a reason and help define who we become and for that reason I never allow myself to get angry about having lost my hearing.
( GREAT PHILOSOPHY .. )
*There really IS no place like home!
( AB-SO-FREAKIN'-LUTE-LY 'Dorothy' )
*I'm very liberal minded - I won a wet T-shirt contest when I was 19.
( And a MIND is a TERRIBLE THING to WASTE )
*I hate people with 15 items in the 10 item or less line.
( BACK of the LINE for THEM )
*Cows are cool. (I'll Moooooooooooo for YOU )
*I think I'm the only person I have ever known to say that they LOVED their childhood...
.... either I'm lucky or crazy - I haven't decided yet.
( ZONNNNNING BABY !)
*I believe that sexuality is as essential in life as eating, breathing, and sleeping. There is nothing quite like cuddling up with a good book.
( O.K. now which IS IT.. ?? ME or a GOOD BOOK ? )
*I love puppies but don't care for dogs. ( SORRY, LOVE MY DOGS)
*I still read childrens books, especially Dr Seuss and Shel Silverstein. I love to read poetry but I suck at writing it.
( CHILDRENS books & POETRY can CALM the INNER PERSON of YOUR SOUL)
*Most of my favorite movies are musicals - ironic considering I can't hear.
( YOU HEAR with YOUR HEART DARLING )
*My favorite color is purple.
( I LOVE BLUE ! )
I love Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings.
( ASHAMED to ADMIT... NEVER saw EITHER of THEM)
I consider myself a mildly spiritual person.
( My SPIRIT wants to be FREE, but RULES RESTRICTED it for YEARS )
*I think that at least once in your life you should throw caution to the wind and go puddle jumping.
( BABY ... YOU are MY PUDDLE ) (NO PUN INTENDED)
*I think the internet is the best thing since sliced bread.
( RYE, PUMPERNICKEL, or WHOLE WHEAT ?)
I love to catch snowflakes on my tongue.
( ANOTHER VERY GOOD USE for IT )
*I've bungee jumped.
( REALLY... COULD be DANGEROUS with YOUR BUXOM PHYSIQUE)
*I believe a laugh a day is as important, and always try to make at least one person laugh every day, I also have a warped sense of humor - its one of my charms :) I love to make new friends, but I'm always afraid of making a fool out of myself if I have trouble lip-reading them.
( WELL, NO FEAR ANYMORE BABY ! MAKE ALL the FRIENDS YOU want )
***I believe we never stop learning - and I hope you've had the chance to learn a little about me, and look forward to learning even more. ***
( I HAVE the REST of MY LIFE TO LEARN ABOUT YOU...
.....IF YOU give ME the REST of YOUR LIFE to STUDY YOU )

LETs "HEAR" a CHEER for ST. PATTY's DAY
Mar. 17th 2006
* Well, ANOTHER HOLIDAY without MY STONE ...*
....but....
* If you can LOOK on the BRIGHT SIDE....
( And I USUALLY DO ! )
*It's just one MORE HOLIDAY 'CLOSER' to my STONE ...
I MYSELF NOT being IRISH , never REALLY HAD REASON to CELEBRATE all-out..
*BUT... Now I have a REAL REASON to CELEBRATE...*
It's a very SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY for my STONE...
She woke from her coma on March 17, 1981 ...
And due to Menegitis ... she was DEAF...
So... this is her FIRST.. ... *YES, her FIRST ...
St PATRICK'S DAY that she can HEAR in 25 YEARS !!!!
HEARING someone SPEAK to me is VERY EASY to take for GRANTED.
BUT...
* LISTENING to My DARLING STONE is ..
... like LISTENING to the BIRDS SINGING..
... like LISTENING to CHILDREN PLAYING..
... like LISTENING to the WIND BLOWING through the TREES..
... like LISTENING to the WAVES CRASHING on the SHORE..
... like LISTENING to the SUN-SHINE COMING UP on a BRAND NEW DAY...
*YES ... NEEDLESS to SAY ...
I LOVE the SOUND of My STONE's VOICE..
(And I HOPE that SHE LOVES my GRAVELLY VOICE as MUCH)
* SO...
This YEAR ....
SAINT PATRICK's DAY has SOME SPECIAL MEANING to ME...
* I'll go as FAR as SAYING ... " KISS ME ... I'M IRISH ! " *
*I couldn"t have ASKED for a NICER PRESENT on this DAY...
*WELL... I KNOW that I STARTED this ENTRY OVER a MONTH ago..
*BUT .. the LOVE of My STONE ... has HELD my HEART..*And LIFE has KEPT ME BUSY...
* TILL the NEXT CHANCE that I get to SIT and TYPE
and TELL YOU just HOW MUCH I LOVE My STONE..
* Always REMEMBER, there is no GREATER LOVE, ... then,*
* ......................................... a ROCK & a STONE ...*

A VALENTINE's DAY MILES APART
Feb. 16th 2006
*WOW .... TIME FLYS when YOU are HAVING FUN...
...but it can DRAG when YOU are MILES from the ONE that YOU LOVE...! **
* I can't BELIEVE how the ABILITY to have a COUPLE of DOLLARS in YOUR POCKET can TOTALLY ALTER the way you PRECEIVE the WHOLE WORLD...! *
* If you can FOLLOW where I am coming from..... YES ...I got a NEW JOB...
And with, FIRST day MEDICAL, and FIRST day DENTAL, and,.... YES,.... even FIRST day LIFE INSURANCE ... *
* Well, how could this ROCK go WRONG..? *
** Well, BELIEVE it or not .....*
*This ROCK and my STONE, now LOVE each OTHER more every single day...*
*(..If thats POSSIBLE...)*
* And at least with a good job and great money coming in, we now can FINALLY, SERIOUSLY look at PLANS of ACTUALLY meeting each other. *
* Yes, this ROCK will ADMITS that LOVE is STILL TESTED every SINGLE day...*
* And THUS FAR it keeps PASSING the test ...*
* Ohhh, I know how it is with a NEW JOB, and then you get to meet all TYPES of NEW PEOPLE... and TEMPTATION is as CLOSE as a "WRONG WORD" away ... !*
* But, the LOVE that I POSESS for my STONE is STRONGER then any and all TEMPTATIONS that any "NEW SITUATION" can HURL upon me...!*
* And even THOUGH my STONE is going back to SCHOOL to upgrade her COLLEGE DEGREE, I know that I have NOTHING to fear... for her LOVE for her ROCK, is STRONGER then any "COLLEGE STUDDED FRAT BOY" that might APPROACH her...*
* My STONE is going back to SCHOOL after many year of being out of the COLLEGE SCENE...
* The REASON you might ASK... ???*
* Well, my STONE is EMBARKING on a very INTERESTING, and CHALLENGING CAREER move... but, so that she can get a "JUMP" on her NEW CAREER COURSES in COLLEGE... she is going to take some ADVANCED HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES as a REFRESHER .. so then, when she FINALLY gets back to N.A.I.T. (her college) , she will then be ABLE to "HIT-the-GROUND-RUNNING"....*
* [so to speak] *
* hmmmm ? Does this mean that I'm now DATING a "HIGH SCHOOL GIRL"...? *
* I feel all GIDDY and HAPPY and YOUNG again...! YIPPEEE ! *
* { DRAMATIC PAUSE }
* Well, WHATEVER it means, I know that this ROCK ... LOVES ... that STONE ..!*
*My MIND had been so TROUBLED about almost EVERYTHING that you could POSSIBLY think about... There was WORRY after WORRY lined up in my BRAIN.... And it's amazing how the PRESENSE of a PAYCHECK can make most of it seem to DISSAPEAR just like THAT...*
* COINCIDENCE * : *Just now while I was TYPING, ... one of my CREDIT CARD COMPANIES called.... and it was so nice to just be able to say to her...*
* "WHATEVER THE MINIMUN is ... I'LL PAY TRIPLE !" *
* And then to hear her RESPOND, *
* "SORRY SIR, YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED to PAY MORE THEN YOU OWE..!" *
*** { What a GREAT FEELING ! } ***
* Soon , This ROCK and my STONE will be looking to find a NICE little LOVE NEST of our OWN... Someplace where we can CUDDLE, and SNUGGLE, and SNIGGLE... DRINK some NANDO ASTI', ... sit TOGETHER at night, ...watch old MOVIES and make up for all our LOST YEARS...*
* Well, I have to go and do "WORK-RELATED-STUFF" *
* :{wow, it feels GOOD to say that too}: *
* Catch you on SAINT PATTY's DAY....*
*Always REMEMBER, there is no GREATER LOVE,
.....................then........ a ROCK & a STONE ...*

....... Always and All-Ways ................. ROCK ........
