Note to Self

Dear Self:

Yes, your hus­band is ex-Army.  Yes, your hus­band is a com­puter Geek.  Yes, your hus­band is an avid reader of blogs about fonts and design.  (Yes, fonts.  Like Optima.*)  And yes, if you ever, ever ref­er­ence a phrase from any Broad­way show writ­ten or per­formed before 1990, it will set off the singing of said song and then every other song in said musi­cal, and then every other musi­cal by same com­poser.  And then Jesus Christ Super­star.  Just because he likes it.

Note to self: stay away from the song ref­er­ences.  Even if there ain’t noth­ing like a dame.

Mmkay?

*The BH says if he was to marry a font, it would be Optima.  Do you see what I’m deal­ing with?

  1. Do you read Sub­ur­ban Bliss? She had a hys­ter­i­cal post about how her design geek hus­band and friends were sit­ting around the table mock­ing some­one who used Comic Sans MS.

  2. You might should show him this: http://www.guidespot.com/guides/sexy_hot_geek_tattoos
    Direct him down to the Hel­vetica. Though I kind of like “con­nect the dots”.

  3. I would marry The Phan­tom of the Opera. See what Tom is deal­ing with?

  4. It’s all about per­spec­tive. My favorite thing (“these are a few of my favorite things”) about your BH is that he sings all those broad­way songs … because I do it too. You must hate it when we get going.

  5. I’ve thought this before, but I think I would like your hus­band. I have a few show tunes in my reper­toire, myself. (Does that make you afraid to ever meet me in per­son? It’s highly unlikely that I would break into song.)

    Did I already bring up with you the topic of Hel­vetica? (The movie, that is.) My hus­band and I watched it a few months ago on a whim, and it was great.
