I have never been more excited to get chocolate wrappers in my life than I was this past Tuesday. Here's a little peek into the relationship that Spencer and I have: instead of sending each other gooey love notes or stuffed animals or other piddly stuff, we send each other Dove Chocolate wrappers. Not the chocolates, just the wrappers. Laugh all you want; I don't care. I think it's rather funny myself. I don't know what's funnier, though: that he sent them to me or that he ate that many, kept the wrappers and then sent them to me. My roommates think I'm really weird that I got excited to get Dove Chocolate wrappers but who cares? Do any of your friends send you chocolate wrappers? I don't think so.
What's also great about these is that they have the cheesiest one liners EVER. To name a few:
"Curl up and take a catnap."
"It's not only okay to different, it's fantastic!"
"Give a little love today."
"Be the first to hit the dance floor."
"Smile when you want to, cry when you need to, laugh whenever possible."
Okay, so who writes these and how much do they get paid because I want in. I could fill a book with a million of these and send them to Dove and be rich. The other great thing about these quotes is that they're called "Promise Messages". I think the person who writes the scripts for the Hallmark movies also writes the "Promise Messages" for Dove. I'm pretty sure Spencer sent these to me just to make me laugh. And they did make me laugh. A lot.
I think the best reaction I got however was from my roommate. I pulled them out and was unfolding them when she walked in and said, "Dang boy, send us the chocolate next time."
