A Departure From The Usual
I usually write about work, but the freedom of the Blogosphere means that I can type up any ole crap I can dream up and you can either read it or you can click away, cursing my fickle sychotic hyde for not posting about my crazed and delusional bureaucratic existence.

I was talking to a friend of mine about what he is looking for in a girlfriend, and I shared that I had come up with a list of my own that he might want to adopt. I developed this list under the philosophy that you find what you are looking for a heck of a lot easier if you actually know what you are looking for.

Read, enjoy, and let me know if there is anything I missed. It is entitled, "What I want in the person I love," (for convenince, called "You").

When I call, you are there.
When I look to the future, you are there.
You can listen to me bitch and whine because you know that I am just blowing off steam.
You hold me when I am feeling lonely.
I can hold you when I am feeling insecure.
When we make love it isn't just about being horny.
You tell me I am beautiful even when I am not.
You forgive me when I am snappish because you know we all get that way from time to time.
You do some of the things that I like and I do some of the things that you like.
You do not keep track of the tradeoff.
You will tell me my sister is a bitch even when I am the one who is wrong.
You keep my feet warm on a cold winter's night.
You tell me when you are feeling insecure so I know what bothers you.
You know that I am never trying to hurt you.
You give me the benefit of the doubt.
You like to do nice things for me "just because".
You notice when I do nice things for you "just because."
You know that a good back massage can snap me out of almost any dark mood.
You let me wander away from timt to time, you know I will be back because you are my homebase.
There is no one else that knows me like you do.
I let you wander off from time to time, I know you will be back, because I am your homebase.
You love me the way I am.
You don't want to change me because you love me the way I am.
You can't imagine a better life than the one we are living.
You don't shoot down my wilder ideas, knowing I will come to my senses eventually.
You value my opinion even when it differs.
I value your opinion becuase I know you are intelligent and deliberate in forming them.
From time to time you wonder what I am thinking about some random thing.
You want to spend time with me.
I want to spend time with you.
You want to show me all the things that are wonderful about the world.
I want to do the same.

I guess this whole post is a non-sequitor, but hey, this is my silly blog and I can play on my hampster wheel anytime I want!
