When someone says to you, "I'm actually as sure that you love me as I am that you exist at all," how can you not be all schmoopy? Tell me.

Isn't that the most wonderful thing in the world? :):):)

It really, really is. (You know, don't you, that you and Tim make me feel perfectly comfortable in believing I'll be with these amazing people for decades?)

Oh, hon. :) That makes me *very* happy.

That is, in fact, all geeky-schmoopy. Or maybe schmoopy-geeky. Very cute. :-)

What's "MIMP"?

Yep, geeky-schmoopy for sure. :-)

We had a three-year-old friend who loved shrimp. Her parents put some of the cooked-and-thawed stuff out at a party and I swear the kid ate it non-stop for an hour. Her mom said "Wow, F, you're sure eating a lot of shrimp," and F looked up at her with glee and said, in a cute growly voice, "MMmmmmmm, MIMP!" Since then, that's code in my family for something really yummy.

But why I used the icon is because later in the evening, F's dad was sitting next to her and she offered him some mimp. He said no thank you, and she looked at him amazed and said, "But daddy, you WUV mimp!" And when I said I was schmoopy just now, the geeky-schmoopy partner said, "But Neen*, you WUV schmoopy!"

*F's word for me

Oh my lord, all this cuteness is making me melt and in my mind I can hear you laughing with delight and oh, I'm all pleased now!

Depends.

Do they refer to you as the "tooth fairy" a lot?

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Beast.

I'd be more able to answer that question if I knew what "schmoopy" meant...

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Filled with hatred and despair, of course.

[schillerium.livejournal.com]

Oh. Then I'm already schmoopy all the time anyway.

*grin*

where did schmoopy come from anyway? i had never heard it and now it's all over. (i have a bad association with the word.)

but seeing you happy makes me all happy so yay!

In my case, it's a misremembering of "Smoofy" or something like that, from Mad About You. ("No, you're smoofy, no YOU'RE smoofy." or something like that.) I'm not sure where everyone else is getting it. I should google it to see when it showed up on Usenet. ;-)

Oh, and tell the bad association, if you want. In email, maybe?
