Why My Boyfriend Rocks

Originally posted March 24, 2006

*He can kick my ass at Jeopardy. He can kick most of the contestants' asses too.

*He loves my family, even when they keep calling him to come over and fix something. He doesn't complain and just does it.

*He knows how to fix things. (see above)

*He is one of the funniest people I know. He makes me laugh, and we always have a good time. He's never boring!

*He's cute. And he does cute things. Aw.

*He loves our cat. He tortures her sometimes...but hey, she tortures us most of the time too.

*He's more of a manly man when he's with his guy friends. I like that. And I like that he has friends.

*If he has an opinion on something, he has reasons to back up that opinion. He doesn't follow the crowd, and he educates himself on things that pique his curiosity or make him think. If he doesn't understand something, he'll look it up so that he does. I have found very few things that he doesn't already know something about.

*His strengths are my weaknesses, and vice versa.

*He is the type of person who does exactly what he says he's going to do. If he dreams up a trip he wants to take, he'll start planning and make it happen. We're both Aquariuses (is that the correct plural form?), which is a sign notorious for dreaming without any follow-through, but I think we both buck that trend. We like seeing our goals realized.

*He's responsible. He pays his bills and doesn't let things get behind. If there's a problem with something, he'll make a phone call and square it away.

*He's not lazy. And he helps me around the house.

*He has good hygiene. That's soooo important.

*He likes to cuddle. Sorry if that embarrasses you, babe.

*He shares my sense for adventure. We motorcycled through the desert during an intense heat wave. We went parasailing in Cabo. So far they've been some of the greatest memories of my life.

*He is my best friend. And that doesn't embarrass him.

*He watches American Idol and critiques the contestants with me. He'll watch Daria and Scrubs with me, even though I know he'd probably rather be watching something else.

*He eats my cooking. And likes it.

*He can play the guitar, and he can sing pretty well too!

*He watches girly movies with me when it's my turn to pick the movie. He doesn't complain too much.

*He's a realist.

*He loves me. A lot.

*He gets along with and is nice to his family.

*He listens to what I have to say. He is interested in my work and asks me questions about it to know more. He respects that I'm a working woman, and that I'm independent in some ways.

*He is perfectly OK if I want to have a girls night with my friends.

*He doesn't like it if I have to go out of town for a while and can't be with him. I think that's cute.

*He comes to my chorus performances.

*He is laughing or has a smile on his face 90 percent of the time.

*He includes me in things.

*We never fight.

*He is himself. I love him so much!

Wilit commented: Oh who the hell is this guy?! That's it, I'm going to kick his ass.

I love you sex kitten.

Dom commented: eww. "sex kitten?" watch it buddy- that's my sister you're talkin' about there. (this is where i'd insert one of those little smiley faces, like the ones above, if i knew how. where's the little box?) anyways, i'm still waitin' on that "why my sister rocks" blog. hmm... must have gotten lost in the mail... or should i say "MALE?" ha! (now, this is where i agree with the "laughing" part 'cause i bet you that RyRy laughed, even at that one.)
i just ate some goat cheese and now my fingers stink. why do i keep smelling them?
"kut, kut, kut, kut, kut, kut, kut, kut..."
