I just discovered the other day what this little icon here means:
<3
I had just seen it for the first time a few weeks ago all over someone’s myspace account in their comments. I don’t often frequent myspace and I am not a hip computer-user, so I had never seen it before then. I don’t know what anything means. Like all the abbreviations and stuff people use when they chat and text…no clue. Anyway, it was all over this girl’s comments and her breasts were all over the place and I just assumed for some reason that that is what the symbol meant. Boobs. My mind. It’s in the gutter?
Anyway, I figured out what it really means when my dear friend Georgia used it in an email to me. She wouldn’t be sending me a boob icon. It dawned on me. It’s a heart. I laughed and was a little embarrassed. I learned something new!
Comments
Georgia:
You are soooo cute! That’s a really funny story! Your non-boob-but-yes-heart realization was probably made more clear with the help of google chat. It is so cute how it rotates and then turns light blushy pink. You are awesome. And the pumpkin muffin you made that I am eating right now is double awesome. xoxo

Boobs! That is hilarious, I am totally cracking up and well I just had to share the story with David! But…..not that I want to admit this now, you are not alone. I had no idea. What we would do without Georgia to show us the hip ways of life. Cracking me up still. I needed that laugh, thanks!

I still see boobs. I guess it looks like a heart, but at first glance-boobs.

I feel like that often- that I’m just late to the game. I knew the <3 thing just because saw it as a phrase, not alone. Something like, “I <3 that store!!!”. But, other stuff- um, yeah, don’t count on me to be the “hip” one. Which is sad, because out of all of our friends, I’m the youngest…by a few years…and, yet, I’m also probably the least “hip”. :-( Do hip people even say “hip”?!
