The jar of questions continues...


Q: If you placed a want ad for your husband - what would it say?

A: HA HA HA - this is funny, let's see....

"Wanted, F looking for M:
Physical appearance: not too tall, not too skinny, blue eyes and sandy blond hair. Should have a size 9 shoe and at least 1 pair of shoes for every activity that you desire to take part in. Need to develop a gut over time and be willing to watch it wax and wane with the seasons! Hairy legs and chest - no baldies please!
Intellectual description: Must be a dreamer, think you can fix or build anything, and have good intentions. You must believe that the bathroom is a library, a pharmacy, and a place to relax. Your head should be full of useless facts and information because this is what will make you interesting. You should also be convinced that the creators of the Wii are out to get you, personally, because the tiny characters keep you from winning! "Yes, dear" should be a ready part of your vocabulary and you need to speak good, fluent English - and nothing else! You need to be forgetful and not know the concept of winning an argument because you'll give up that right when you marry me! Should always have an idea!
BONUS Qualities: Should be good with children (because you'll have 4 of em'), patient with your wife because she's gonna put you through the ringer and be willing to give up anything that belongs to you because it's now community property! Must be spontaneous, romantic and willing to try anything once! No complaining when the house is messy or dinner isn't on the table when you get home. Ability to change diapers, clean bathrooms, do laundry, wash dishes and eat what I cook regardless of what you think of it - all pluses for you!! Ability to drop everything on a moments notice to tend to the needs of your family will be required of you as well. Must love to travel, take cruises, and entertain. Must be willing to hunt large game - it makes your wife happy. And ALWAYS puts the toilet seat down!
NOT SO SPECTACULAR QUALITIES that I'M WILLING TO LIVE WITH ANYWAY: You need to also use the kitchen counter as your personal belonging dumping station! Should leave your clothes (clean or dirty) on the floor next to your side of the bed at all times. Don't worry about putting away that shaving cream, razor or hair gel - I'll get that too! Please leave your dishes on the table and when you're done washing dishes, make sure all the silverware is in a cup "soaking" for when it's my turn to wash.
I could go on but I don't want to drive you away! If you fit this description then meet me at an LSU football game, we'll get engaged 2 weeks later and get married 3 months after that. We'll have many happy years, lots of ups and downs, 4 rambunctious kids and a mini-van, but we'll be happy!
