To My Future Significant Other....

Wouldn't it be great if we could email or actually write a letter (gasp, yes I said write not type), to our future spouses or significant others? Well here is my letter. Enjoy.

Dear Future Significant Other,

     I sometimes wonder who you will be. What your favorite music is, your favorite book (do you read?), I also wonder if you can put up with me as a person. Its kind of hard I am told. So here is what you must be able to put up with.

     Here is what I do know about you. You don't drink excessively, you don't do drugs and never have. You don't smoke (anything). You have not been to prison. You don't feel the need to go around beating people up, but have the ability to do so if the situation arises (who wants a wimp after all). Family is very important to you.

     You must be able to put up with kids. We are, I am afraid, a package deal. You must have patience, (difficult I know), you must be able to see them as part of me, but as individuals. 4 children is a lot to take on, (alcohol is tempting at times) so you must be strong patient and hopefully better at discipline than I am. Mess

     I wonder occasionally if we have met before, but probably not.

     Shoes. I have this obsession with shoes. Heels, flats, boots, you name it, I probably own a pair of them...so it is a must that you put up with my shoe fetish. O and you may also have to sacrifice closet space to hold my shoe collection (we may need to have a walk in closet or multiple?). Its a girl thing...I refuse to apologize for. I'm sure you have a fetish of some kind that I will have to tolerate!? Guns perhaps? Tools? Cars?

    I love to cook, and I am sure you love to eat. Rolling pins were invented strictly to keep men out of the kitchen. Although if you want to cook with me, I may be open to that. I just ask that you put things were they belong and not wherever you feel like it. I mean would you want me going through your tools and messing them up? I think not....:)

    Do you read? If you do, we will not get along if you read romance novels....been there done that bought the tee-shirt. It doesn't work for the guy to be more emotional or sensitive than I am. You can love your Mama, I expect it, but you can not be a Mama's boy....please.

     God. Is He important to you? Do you have faith? I do, if this bothers you, keep walking. Your lack of faith doesn't bother me, but your soul going to hell might bother you when it happens. Chances are, you do believe in God and I feel that family should go to church together whenever possible.

     Camping... hate t. I will do it, occasionally but it is not my favorite. I am a firm believer that couples can have separate vacations. Feel free to take the boys while the girls and I go to a hotel, order room service and shop. :)

     I lose my keys all the time. Never fails. At least 5 or 6 times  week. Sometimes in the same day. I don't know how it happens but it does. Seriously they need a beeper on them or something  that will enable me to find them when they are lost. They like to hide from me. Truly it is the keys wandering off and not my fault in any way. Oh...GPS is my best friend. Without it (even n O-town) I can get lost. Seriously. It is a knack. I come by it genetically, my grandmother could too. So if we go somewhere, you are better off driving than I am. I will, without a doubt, get lost. Even with GPS I can end up taking the wrong turn....Needless to say, I have gotten lost in some...um...interesting places.

Enough said....

Sincerely,

Your future Significant Other...

That would be my letter. No vodka or alcohol was involved in the composition of this letter. Promise.

 Until the next Scribble....
