Him and Me

February 19, 2009 By Michele 1 Comment

I wanted to write something light hearted after that last post.  Luckilly Dooce has a meme.

What are your middle names?

Mine is Kee, a family name.  His is Joseph.

How long have you been together?

Our 11th anniversary is coming up in April.  And that’s just about how long we’ve been together considering he asked me to marry him in three days, and we were married three months later.

How long did you know each other before you started dating?

A month.  We were in class together.

Who asked whom out?

Well – I guess me.  I asked to sit next to him in Church.  Three days later we were engaged.

How old are each of you?

I’ll be 34 next month.  He’s 32 – 33 in September.

Whose siblings do you see the most?

Neither really.  Enter long convoluted family history here.

Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?

Money is one.  I’m a saver, he’s a spender.  We don’t have a lot of it, now that I’m home, and I have some history things that lead to a level of insecurity when it comes to funds.  As in I’ve been homeless and never want to go through that again. Although we’ve been through all kinds of things.  Addictions, and deaths, and miscarriages…  It’s all hard.

Did you go to the same school?

Yes, briefly.

Are you from the same home town?

Nope.  I was born in Hollywood, he was born in San Jose.

Who is smarter?

I want to remain married, thank you.

Who is the most sensitive?

Heh.  Me.  Most definitely me.

Where do you eat out most as a couple?

We don’t.

Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?

The Mexican Riviera on our Honeymoon.  Not that we saw much of it.

Who has the craziest exes?

We are very even on that score.  Although he was once engaged to two women at once, so one could argue that HE is the crazy ex.

Who has the worst temper?

Me.  Definitely me.

Who does the cooking?

Me.  Poe nukes things great.  And I believe Kraft mac n’ cheese, scrambled eggs, and burritos are on his list.

Who is the neat-freak?

Freak is such a STRONG word.  Let’s just say we have different definitions of “cleaned up.”

Who is more stubborn?

Oooooo.  Huh.  Let’s just say it’s lucky we agree on a lot.

Who hogs the bed?

Neither of us hogs the bed, but MAN can he steal the covers.

Who wakes up earlier?

Him.  He gets up at 4:30am for work.  Which, unfortunately for him, spills into the weekends.  Which means I get to sleep in.  heh.

Where was your first date?

The parking lot of our church where we talked for 4 hours.

Who is more jealous?

Me.  I think.  Maybe he just broods silently.

How long did it take to get serious?

3 days.

Who eats more?

Me.  Absolutely.  It’s amazing to watch him subsist on air, really.

Who does the laundry?

Me.

Who’s better with the computer?

Well – he’s a CADD engineer.  But I set up his computer, do his virus checks etc.

Who drives when you are together?

That’s a toss up as to who’s willing to bite their tongue more.  I consider driving with him an endurance test.  Will we survive?  He considers driving with me a lesson in patience.

    I JUST read that on her website. How ironic! I love these types of things. It tells you more about people than you actually think it will!
