eggshelling 

Shortened word for "walking on eggshells".
New neighbors moved in upstairs a month ago. I could hear rapid and heavy footsteps (footstomps?), loud chatter, and laughter. Each night, between 2am and 4:30am, loud voracious sex every day upstairs. They did not know how thin the floor is between me and them, so they did not hold back. One day, I put my Ninja coffee maker on the "Clean" cycle. Storm clouds roll in halfway through my clean cycle as my upstairs neighbor says "Of fuck" x 20 "Oh yeah" x 20. As I'm pulling food out of the fridge, I involuntarily hear her have the most quaking orgasm I've ever heard--like Barbarianna's call to Thor from Kung Fury (Kung Fury 2's coming out btw). I may or may not set the food down and pulled my phone out to recordit.

Two minutes later, while I'm holding my phone with the Voice Recorder app up to the ceiling, my Ninja coffee maker gives me the beep to end all beeps, literally as loud as a smoke detector, telling me how very clean my coffee maker is. If you live in an apartment complex, you've probably heard smoke detectors in other people's apartments. I mouth "Oh shit", and I run to the coffee maker and shut it off. (I probably skipped the "Flush cycle" doing this)

Now, I think they know I'm down here, and we have been eggshelling ever since. The footsteps are infrequent. I don't hear them have sex anymore. I did hear her giggle quietly while writing this though. That made me feel better, knowing they're still happy.

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
