Do not extend the olive branch to the ex-wife via MySpace, EVEN IF YOU HAVE THE BEST OF INTENTIONS. She will sort of lose it on your ass and make you feel like shit.

What are your middle names?
Mine is Jeanne, his is John. In his family, each man is alternatively named Robert John or John Robert.
How long have you been together?
Since September, 2007
How long did you know each other before you started dating?
We knew of each other for a long time, but didn't get to really know each other until about 2 months before we got serious.
Who asked whom out?
He asked me if I wanted an adult chaperone when I was deciding on going to Castles And Coasters. I told him he could actually come with, he asked if I'd rather get coffee instead.
How old are each of you?
I'm 23. He's 40. YAY, complications!
Whose siblings do you see the most?
Probably his. My sister has disappeared into the freezing asshole of Canadia.
Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?
Age. Oh, and his 19-year-old daughter. It can be weird.
Did you go to the same school?
He was graduating high school as I was being expelled from my mom's vajay.
Are you from the same home town?
No, he's Portland, OR, I'm Phoenix, AZ.
Who is smarter?
He is SO smart when it comes to technical stuff, computers, numbers, taxes, etc. I'm smarter when it comes to emotions, relationships and social situations.
Who is the most sensitive?
I don't know. I'm more outwardly emotional, but he holds in the hurt feelings and doesn't reveal them until later.
Where do you eat out most as a couple?
Trader Joe's frozen pizza. Whoo.
Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
Portland.
Who has the craziest exes?
HIM. HIM. HIM.
Who has the worst temper?
ME!
Who does the cooking?
If you call the slop I make "cooking," then me.
Who is the neat-freak?
Oh, him, hands down. I secretly believe floors were invented to throw/leave shit on.
Who is more stubborn?
Definitely him. I usually have to cry or refuse to speak to him to get him to cave.
Who hogs the bed?
Meeeeeeeee...
Who wakes up earlier?
He has to because of work, but on the weekends, I'm usually the first one up.
Where was your first date?
Some independent coffee place in Tempe.
Who is more jealous?
Me, especially when we first started dating. Apparently a press release went out to all his exes and they began showing up in his inbox in droves. Needless to say, I nipped that one in the bud.
How long did it take to get serious?
The moment he kissed me for the first time.
Who eats more?
Meeeeee... I are a piggy.
Who does the laundry?
I do mine, he folds it. He does his, he folds it.
Who's better with the computer?
HIM. I cause mine to explode, he gets all Jesus on it and resurrects it from the dead.
Who drives when you are together?
Mostly him. Unless he whines.
I agree with Lisa H. By completing this I just realized Rob is definitely getting a raw deal.

24. I work better in chaos than in order.
25. I once signed up to be an egg donor but was told my eggs weren't good enough. Bish, plz.

It's ours. We move in the first weekend of April. 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and more walk-in closets than you can shake a stick at. I LOVE this part of my life.
