Shmoo. Yan ang tawagan namin sa isa’t isa. Our adopted term of endearment.
Una kong narinig itong terminong ito habang nanonood kami ng isang episode ng Third Rock From the Sun. We have just started normalizing our co-habited arrangement then. At ang isa sa una naming "conjugal properties" ay ang luma kong TV (isang 21-inch Sony Trinitron na dating TV ng aming pamilya noong 19-kopong-kopong), juiced up by a new cable internet subscription bundle from Destiny.
"Ay! Aaaanng kyuuut ng name, parang ikaw," sabi ko, sabay halik. Napangiti sya, mukhang nagustuhan ang idea. And ever since, yan ang tawagan namin, at paminsan-minsan, binabago pa ang spelling for more saccharine kakornihan sa text messages.
Salamat na rin sa cable internet, agad naman sya nag-Google kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng Shmoo. At eto pala sya, courtesy of Wikipedia. Nung nakita ko yung picture, lalo akong nakumbinse. Niloko ko pa nga sya noon, "oh, kitams kamukha mo pa nga."
Happy Valentine’s Day, Shmooey! *mwah*
