When I first met Coral, one of my favourite things about her is (was?) her name. Coral.
I never knew a Coral before her.
I did not know there was a colour shade called coral.
If I was scuba diving I’d be afraid of coral.
I never knew that corals coordinate behavior by communicating with each other. Whoa, there is probably a life lesson in there about relationships… maybe near the bottom of the wiki, in the footnotes.
There is a band called The Coral.
One day I will visit Coral Gables, FLA… I might even bring Coral, but then, that might be one hell of a trip and fuck with the space time continuum. Maybe Coral would hang in Coral Springs? then we’d meet in Orlando? I dunno.
I bought Coral a classic 45 single on Coral Records.
One time the History channel showed this boring naval battle. I wanted to change the channel because I thought the Bachelorette was on but then the announcer said, “this major battle of World War Two was fought between US and Australian forces against the Imperial Japanese… it was called the Battle of the Coral Sea.” And then check this out, it was a marathon of Coral battles!
When I move to the desert one day in the future… I’ll keep my eyes peeled for coral SNAKES!
Coral is a real nerd too. beep beep bop bop nerd nerd internets.
And sometimes Coral makes movies! I can’t understand any of them because they are in a different language.
Our long term financial plan call for winning the lotto… but I am sure she wouldn’t be against winning our retirement at bingo? In The UK? With the Gala Coral Group.
if Coral ever left me for another man (or progressive woman) I could only be with a woman with an equal to or greater than name.. like maybe MTV Real World cast member Coral Smith… middle name Jeanne? WTF, Coral’s middle name is Jean!
Now coral is my favourite colour, my favourite city(ies) in Florida (and Ontario and Illinois) and my third favorite thing found in the ocean (after sharks and Zombies).


Did this make Coral tear?! Because that was damn near the sweetest thing I’ve ever read on the internet, ever.
I don’t think she’s read it yet. I wrote it at work.
thank you. 🙂

also, that car is frigging hot. you guys should totally own it.
(and i like the band The Coral. seen them live too)
that car is so super duper rad. but sadly, also mucho $$$.
🙂 I love you pretty big joom.
Beep beep bop bop nerd nerd.
nerd nerd nerd.
This is, hands down, the best thing you’ve ever put into the ether. Love is awesome.
thank you Jess!
