On exactly the same day, two people insisted that I write this list down. The first was Jme, as a blog-challenge, and lord knows I can't say no to her. The second was my mom, who firmly believes that I'm going to be an "old maid" with forty cats and when I die, I'll be discovered by the mailman when he notices the smell...
Fine, fine. I can take a hint. So, in the spirit of Alanis, "these are 21 things that I want in a lover, not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer"
1. Are you brave enough to look like a fool?
2. Can you laugh at yourself?
3. Do you agree that happiness is worth more than money?
4. Do you dream big?
5. Are you quirky? Will you make me feel normal?
6. Did you refuse to "grow up"?
7. Do you like kids?
8. Will you have wrapping paper-tube swordfights?
9. Do you find that you have the most thought-provoking conversations at 3:00am?
10. Can you tell me what I'm thinking before I say it?
11. Do you believe in leaping before you look?
12. Are you a man of faith?
13. Do you believe that family should come first?
14. Do you think you can handle mine?
15. Can you see beauty in everyday things?
16. Will you keep the romance alive?
17. Can you be mainstream and still maintain traditional values?
18. Will you pretend to be interested in my pointless/boring stories?
19. Will you make me laugh like no one else?
20. I have a very stupid cat. Can you treat her with civility?
21. I'm dancing to "The Chicken Dance" (and possibly even the "Macarena") at my wedding. Will you be joining me on the dance floor?
