Oh Squidoo, My Squidoo: A Love Letter to a Squid

 

My dearest Squidoo, I write to you today not in private as I usually do, but in a public forum, so as not to merely share my love with you, but to proclaim it to all the world. 

You bring me new life; you give me meaning; you constantly stimulate my mind with new information.  In this harsh web 2.0 world, you give me a place to feel friendship.  Each lens you've shared with me, titillates me to no end,  arousing my interest in a topic I had not thought of, or one I have long wanted to delve into.  As I look into your eye, I know that everything will be okay.  I feel safe from harm, wrapped in you loving tentacles.

Squidoo Love 

A lens by any other name, wouldn't be so sweet.

If I don't log in to you, and if I don't update you, and if I don't participate in you, then I don't deserve you. I do this all for you, my squidoo, for when I am with you, I never want to leave.

You are Moonlight on a Starry Night 

Glowing, shining; what a sight!

You are an artist's dream come true,
A squid! Surreal yet really you!
You radiate across the net,
as a Web 2.0 asset.
You're both the brush and canvas too.

Squidoo Starry Night

10 Things I'd Rather Do... 

Then be forever without you.

I'd be lost without you, my dear squidoo. These are the top 10 things I'd rather do, then be without you.
  1. Lick the Wall of Gum.
  2. Line the bottom of my shower with a pile of legos.
  3. Eat a steady diet of cabbage and day old sushi.
  4. Get a tramp stamp of George W. Bush.
  5. Learn french.
  6. Listen exclusivly to country music.
  7. Do laundry for sumo wrestlers.
  8. Go back to dial-up.
  9. Marry a mime.
  10. Be on a reality show.

As an angel, you have kissed me. 

God knows, squidoo, you have graced me with your notes, and as an angel, you have kissed me. Those kisses, I love. I cherish them. And, throughout the hours of my day, I think of them...and I remember just how sweet they felt. You show me, my dearest squid, that...I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darnet people like me.

Shower me... 

Though I know, squidoo, that we shall never wed. I wish to mark our relationship. I know that I shall never wear your ring, and you shall never wear mine (especially since you have no fingers), but I am proud to wear your pin. You have showered me with jewelry. You spoil me so. (blushing)

Indeed, I have said it all. All you are to me, and all I wish thee to be. I shall end these words here, but I shall not end what they represent. I will nod off to sleep (probably with my forehead against the screen), but as I sleep, I will dream of you, I always do.

With sarcasm, I am,

I'm not the romantic type but it was love at first sight and all that mushy stuff to go with it.
