Welcome To Our Funny Little World

Well the first thing to say, right up front, is that Hulk (that's me) and Baby (that's her) don't really get in that much trouble. Nope, good kids.

Welcome To Our Blog

The thing is we're both a bit soft hearted and the world is hard. So, we might steal a flower from the coffeeshop table to bring to Hulk's daughter, Piggie, after school. But only because there is so much love all around us that we sniff and share and have. Just have to share. So the important take-away from the beginning of Hulk and Baby's delightful story of love and happiness and circumnavigating the world in our Love Rocket (TM)--yes we actually have a Love Rocket--is that we are super nice folks. A bit fragile, maybe, but full of love. We both possess a rather caustic wit as well as goofy senses of humor. That's just how we roll.

So where to start? Statistics I suppose.

Eleven Facts about Hulk & Baby:

1) Hulk & Baby are 29.
2) Baby is Canadian. This is important.
3) Hulk is American. This is not important.
4) Baby & Hulk have been acquainted since around June 26th, 2006.
5) Baby & Hulk have been ludicrously, enormously, sloppily, ecstatically, stars-in-our-eyes, flying our Love Rocket around the world in love with each other since February 2nd, 2007.
6) Our favorite number is eleven (11) because it reproduces itself and creates balance and symmetry everywhere it goes. Like when we fell in love on 2/2.
7) Hulk has a daughter. She is eight years old and joyful, she loves Baby. Her name is Piggie.
8) Hulk & Baby are of Literature. We study it. Baby is particularly adept in this capacity. She has written books. Hulk marvels...
9) Baby & Hulk are also of the bicycles and the bicycle racing. Hulk does not suck at this.
10) Hulk & Baby have an imaginary cat named & (Ampersand).
11) Baby & Hulk love, love, LOVE ice cream.

Ancillary facts that don't get numbered because numbering them would flub the 11ing.
- We make up our own verbs.
- Baby is an uncommonly good Poet. She also flutes.
- Hulk plays stringed instruments (Guitar and Mando) rather well. He plays well with words, too, but doesn't always behave himself.

Today Hulk & Baby made friends with a little bird on the hood of Hulk's crumbly van. Then the bird took off. It didn't really want to be pals, it seems, it just wanted a morsel tucked in down by the windshield wipers. The funny thing is that both Baby and Hulk each took this a bit personally though neither said anything.

Now we are at our favorite Coffeeshop up near our University. Baby is working while Hulk is blogging. Baby is wearing one of Hulk's baseball caps and to Hulk she looks like some dream creation combination of Lara Croft, Scout Finch, a Kitten, and a mysterious Parisian girl who might be found wandering alone down by the Seine looking for a magic word to make her fly or to create a potion out of.

It's time to pick up Piggie now so off we go.

Many more stories to come. Adventures, laughs, tears, bike races and Lenny Bruce cartoons.

So whatever you're up to today, be conscious of the love you bring into the world. This is what Hulk & Baby do.
