Two years ago today – give or take the time difference – a boy from New South Wales and a girl from Indiana got hitched in Las Vegas with all of their family and friends watching on the Internet. Now they’re a little bit older and fitter, but thankfully they’re just as silly as ever.

Happy anniversary, Snookums. Thanks for being my best friend.

Note: I used this tutorial to make the pop art Snookums.

If any of y’all in Sydney are interested in going to a hula loop class (yes, you read that correctly) with me tomorrow night, let me know. It’s at Camperdown Park at 6:00 and the hoops are provided! Cost is $15.

Ohio State lineman Kirk Barton just made a whole bunch of Irish enemies. What a dick. He probably couldn’t get in.

And just a quick note about tonight’s final Australian Idol performances… Damien’s got this one in the bag. Jessica was good, but his songs were just better. He even made the crappy manufactured single into something I would actually buy. (Note to Holden: Put that Ben Harper song as the B-side and I’ll pre-order. Seriously.) My only complaint – and I fear this will be unpopular – was the falsetto. I know it’s his thing, but the fact that he puts it in EVERY song means that part of my enjoyment is marred by waiting for the falsetto shoe to drop. His voice is so great without it that I don’t need to be reminded of the falsie during every single number. LOSE IT, DAMO! Other than that, the only surprise of the night was confirmation that Andrew G is, in fact, doing Movember. (And is rocking the Spurlock, I might add.) I totally called that.

Heh. Go look up your name on Babynamer and click the “drawbacks” link (if you get one). Mine are pretty funny. For the record, I’ve never gotten “Kiss-stine,” “Kris-stink,” or “Kristeeny the Meany.” I have been known to bristle at “Krissy” though. And there was that kid in the second grade who made me cry in gym class when he kept calling me “Krispy Wheats ‘n’ Raisins.” Go to hell, Donny Miller! (Link courtesy of PCJM.)

Updated to say: Allow me to introduce my husband, “Hot Rod”. HA!

I know I spend way too much time on AskMeFi, but this is such an interesting debate: “If I say to you, “The 5 o’clock meeting has been pushed forward 1 hour,” what do you understand the new meeting time to be?”My immediate response was 4:00. The Snook said 6:00. And then we argued about it all the way to work this morning. What do you think?

AskMeFi gems I’m bookmarking for future reference: “Which comic books do geeky chicks like?” and “So what’s the deal with Britney Spears’s breasts?”
