3. How old are you? 33. I’m a cougar. :)
4. Who eats more? He definitely does.
5. Who said “I love you” first? He did. :)
6. Who is taller? He is.
7. Who sings better? He can actually hit notes sometimes. Me? Not so much.
8. Who is smarter? Well, he’s full of the weirdest facts, but I have my own talents. I’m sure of it. :O
9. Who does the laundry? That remains to be seen. I know he likes to do his own, but I actually enjoy the washing and drying part. It’s the folding and putting away that I’m not so great at.

15. Who is more stubborn? Eh, I think I am.
16. Who kissed whom first? I kissed him first but he took over for the next ten or twenty. :)
17. Who asked whom out? Hmm, there really wasn’t that. It was more “I like you. I like you, too. OK, then.”

19. Who is more sensitive? I am.

Christmas Time & Christmas Meme (Pictures)

/ christmas, meme, pictures, survey

Aidan's Happy!

Put up the tree today. 🙂 There’s something nice about small trees. They’re so easy to decorate. I hadn’t even taken the thing apart really. Just stood it up and fluffed it out a bit. Plopped on the garland and the lights, and when Aidan got here, hung the ornaments with him. Good times.

I’ve been playing with the manual settings on my camera (FINALLY, after having it for 20 months!), and while I still have a lot to learn, I’m excited about how much more flexibility I have with photography. I’m also scared that I’ll screw up pix a lot more. :O Like those sparkle things on Aidan’s face in the above picture. What the hot banana is that all about?

It goes away so quickly.

I like to go out and shop. No paying for shipping that way. I remember when they were really trying to push online shopping, back in 1999. EVERY place offered free shipping, and I didn’t have a car. It was the best thing ever. But then, online shopping caught on, so it’s not as much fun anymore.

24. Do you decorate outside for Christmas or just inside (or at all?)
I have an apartment, so I only decorate inside.

I have a couple pairs of socks. 🙂

Santa rocks, dude.

‘Til next time.
