top five

Five years ago today, Jered asked me out on our first date. We went to a high school basketball game, and he paid for me. Then I spent the rest of the night ignoring him.

The top five reasons we are still together:

5. He refuses to play board games with me, because he is holding out for Scrabble to come out on XBox so he has SOME sort of chance at beating me.

4. He challenges me: "Quit driving 45 in a 55, dammit! Jesus Christ! You're going to get us killed!"

3. He ONLY complains when I make him come with me to Target. Any other store is fair game, but he'll let me know how bored he is, and how he'd rather be fishing.

2. He is slowly learning how to fit into my card and board-game driven, competitive-natured family. I can only hope our children get my Scrabble gene for this one.

1. I can fart in front of him. And when I do, instead of telling me I am repulsive, he'll fart back.

I know, we're disgusting.
