Satisfaction


In case you were wondering, the way I met my Meggin was through her post at girlboy.diaryland.com. I thought it would be fun to see how I've been living up to her indecently high standards!

i would like a boy who…

...loves the fact that i’m smart.
Yes!!! Except for when she uses her knowledge to tell me how wrong I am about a subject. You'd be surprised how often I am wrong.

...can have an argument with me and win.
Well, I can have arguments with her, but usually it's a good idea to let her win.

...understands that i have little to no common sense.
That's news to me. Except for the times she leaves her bank card at her desk at work when she needs it during the weekend.

...calls me names like “kitten” and “cutes” because he knows i like it even though i say i don’t.
I sure hope "Meggin Meggin" counts.

...never gets upset when i say i can’t go out because i have things to do.
Not like I go out anyways. And by "things to do" she means play Gamecube.

...offers to help me do those things.
I would, but she's usually better at those things than I am anyways.

...has opinions and can back them up.
I have opinions, but I keep them to myself to avoid fights, arguments, and conversations.

...loves his mommy.
She drives me crazy pretty much all the time, but the answer is Yes nonetheless.

...thinks i’ll make a great mommy someday.
Without a doubt.

...likes to go camping and snowboarding (or would go if i asked him to).
I wouldn't go so far as to say I'd "like" doing either, but I guess I'd go.

...when he knows i’m sad, just holds me for a long time before he asks what’s wrong.
Haven't been able to grasp this one completely. I usually just go for poking her with my finger over and over again until she tells me what's wrong.

...lets me know if i’m acting like a silly girl.
Oh, I do. She does NOT appreciate it. I guess the problems stems from how I only tell her that when she's mad at me for something I think is unreasonable.

...thinks that it’s cute that i do so on occasion.
Unless it's driving me up the wall.

...thinks it’s sexy when i speak in other languages (bonus: he can speak them back to me!)
Yup. (Can't speak them back very well, though.)

...apologizes if he swears around me even if i never asked him not to.
Not once has the phrase "Cocksmoking motherfucker" passed from my mouth with any sort of apology. Ever.

...is turned on by the fact that i have an extensive collection of tools and like to fix things.
#2 aphrodesiac after smarts. Basically, I love her for being everything I am not.

...loves thunderstorms as much as i do.
I don't get enough of them to know if I love them or not.

...doesn’t make fun of my music.
Is it even possible to make fun of They Might Be Giants?

...doesn’t try to convert me to his.
I have a feeling Meggin ain't never gonna like Slayer.

...isn’t materialistic.
I'm not.

...isn’t in denial about being materialistic.
I'm NOT IN DENIAL!!!

...will sit and watch tv (like quiz shows and cartoons) with me for hours (and end up making out with cartoons going on in the background).
Jeopardy and South Park. Two great tastes that taste great together.

...will sing to me.
I certainly can do that.

...cares about grammar.
If the Care Bears had a guy named Grammar Bear, it'd be me. As long as he's not light blue or some girly color.

...believes me when i say i don’t want him to buy me presents.
She's never said that to me! With her it's always I WANT THIS NOW I WANT THAT NOW!! Just kidding.

...likes old movies.
Um, Reality Bites counts as old, right?

...understands hemingway’s work (so he can explain it to me).
Sorry, no dice.

...can make me laugh ‘til my tummy hurts.
Why did the chicken cross the playground? To get to the other slide!

...likes staying up late and sleeping in (or can teach me to like getting up early).
Well, I don't think either of us likes getting up early yet.

...considers it a nice bonus that i am beautiful.
Of course I do.

...loves my family.
They are radical to the max.

...is absolutely crazy about me.
I would drop myself into a vat of boiling acid for her love. Thankfully I will never have to prove my craziness to her.
