I've already had a new post today so in celebration of Valentine's Day and in case you missed it back in April of last year, I'm bringing back my most successful post from WKOBIB. Enjoy:
I think everyone has this image they have built in their heads of their perfect significant other. Right? I mean I'm not the only freak whose done this right? Well, I at the age of 19 I have done a ridiculously girly thing for your comedic enjoyment, and created this expansive list. So here is my 12 point, rigidly nonnegotiable list of what I am looking for in a significant other. Ok, so really only #1 and #12 are the only deal breakers (Don't scroll down to read #12 right now either because I know that's what you are doing...wait like everyone else). The others can be worked on. And if you know anyone ;) ....
1. She's gotta love Jesus!
-Yeah...um, enough said about this one. She's gotta love the source of all love or there ain't no real love!
2. She's gotta love to talk.
-Now when I say this I don't mean I want her mouth to be going a mile a minute, 24/7. What I mean is I want her to be able to carry on a conversation about what kind of Pokemon is best or how many M&M's she can fit into her mouth, the real deep matters in life. You know, the real deep stuff!
3. She can argue with me.
-This kind of goes with the above point but I want her to be able to make counterpoints to my points because I like to argue about things. I'm not saying I want these arguments to escalate into one of us laying on the floor, pounding our fists into the ground and crying about feelings being hurt. I just want calm scholarly discussions about the pros and cons of the fork vs. the spoon (Food tastes better on a fork).
4. She understands my passions.
-I will be getting married probably in early August. Why do you ask? Because Alabama football will just barely be getting started with fall camp, baseball is just kinda grinding through with its schedule, there is no hockey and all the Redskins are doing are playing scrimimages (That's how I say it). 'Cause I'm not going to be missing even one Alabama football game for no anniversary!
5. She likes thunderstorms.
-I like thunderstorms. I like really, really loud thunderstorms. Fourth horse of the apocalypse storms. I want the house to be shaking and lightning to be lighting up the sky like an Adam Lambert concert. I also would like to be able watch said storm from the comfort of my living room, significant other next to me.
6. She likes the outdoors.
-One of my big hobbies involves me not bathing for days on end, wearing clothes made by Abercrombie and Itch, which haven't been washed in 5+ years, and sleeping in the dirt. Now am I going to drag her out in that? Noooo. But, I like to be outside, and I would hope that she would too.
7. She likes to drive/ride in a vehicle.
-Another of my favorite pastimes is to drive around aimlessly in my car. Am I ever lost? Nope. Just being able to drive and talk and enjoy the countryside and each others company would be great.
8. She likes to sing.
-Now this one I'm flexible on. I like to sing. Not many people have ever heard me sing but I do and I like to think I'm not too bad at it. There's always been a problem though: Bi-gender duets. Its really hard to sing both Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton's parts to "Islands in the Stream" at the same time. Some tag-teaming on this one would be much appreciated.
9. She has pretty eyes.
-What can I say? I'm a sucker for pretty eyes. You've got 'em? Well, you're already like halfway to my heart.
10. She loves kids.
-I like kids. One day I wouldn't mind a pair of small, well-behaved boys. The first-born son will be named Nolan. This being after Nolan Reimold, the sometimes left-fielder for the Baltimore Orioles. If a girl sneaks in there, she will be named Taylor. You can figure that one out on your own.
11. What an odd number.
-It is don't you think? Its so skinny and yet so lazy. Its just two lines really.
12. She can jerk.
-The deal breaker. She has got to be able to jerk. Now on this one I will give a small window of instruction: Two weeks after our first date. Then, the deadline will have passed and it will be a requirement.
