As some of y'all may know, tomorrow is shadesong's and my anniversary. So in honor of that, I figured I'd start a meme. :-)

List three things about your partner that make you jealous

1. Her dedication to writing. Last night, when both of us couldn't sleep, she worked for an hour on writing and outlining. I let free time slip away whenever I get it.

2. Her strength. I'd never want to go through what she's gone through, but the thing is, I also don't think I could handle even a tenth of it. Hell, I barely have the strength for the "crap" I go through.

3. Her copious amount of Livejournal comments and friends. :-)

List three tastes your partner has that you'll never share:

1. Mercedes Lackey. I call her Mercedes Lacking for a reason. Hell, I call her Mercedes Suckass for a reason.

2. Linkin Park. I've tried. I even liked one of their songs. But I can't get into them.

3. Black Olives. The official pizza topping of Satan.

LIst three tastes your partner will never share with you

1. Food in general -- I like ethnic, spicy, and exotic food, shadesong doesn't.

2. Garth Ennis. No explanation needed.

3. Garbage. 'song hates them with a vengeance.

List one taste you've acquired from your partner:

Gloomcookie. Never would have read it without 'song.

List one taste your partner has acquired from you:

Wolff and Byrd (aka Supernatural Law). I still have an email saved in which 'song told me that her boyfriend at the time (now her ex-husband) didn't like me, becuase she found out about these comics she had to read from my website. :-)

Um, hell. I had all these great ideas, but I'm so fucking tired, my brain is about to stop functioning. So I'll post what I have now.

BLASPHEMY!

Yup. And the fact that I love shadesong anyway is proof that Love Conquers All.

Ok, seriously, Owen. You don't have a partner. We all know this. Get over it.

This deeply held pity for yourself because you're "alone" is really unhealthy. If you don't like who you are, change. There are lots of people who would be great helps (doctors, therapists, drug dealers). If you do like who you are, fuck everyone else, you don't need them.

OK. I'm over it now.

First: Awwww...that's so sweet!

Second:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhh, a fill in the blank! :poing:

List three things about your partner that make you jealous
1. His courage. He can say things that need to be said or argue a point with someone when I'll simply back off to avoid the confrontation.

2. His passion and attachment. I'm willing to cut my losses and move on - I've had to do it so many times in my life that I rarely let myself care that much. He has the courage to love things and cling to them passionately.

3. His ability to retain what he reads. Two years after he reads a book, he can remember all this stuff from it - including the sequence of events!


List three tastes your partner has that you'll never share:
1. Horror films/haunted houses/scary stuff. Can't do it. I had nightmares after watching Aliens and shook for 2 hours after watching the 6th Sense. He loves 'em.

2. Computer strategy games and RPGs. I lose him for a week at a time. No conversation, no sex, nothing. The computer gets more action than I do. I wake up at 2 a.m. and he's still yelling at it.

3. Rare steak. Bleeding. Mooing. Ick.

List three tastes your partner will never share with you

1. Ethnic music & folk music. I grew up on it, and he constantly makes fun of it. Grrrr. Diversify. ;)

2. Organizing. He doesn't have the patience, and I find it infinitely soothing. I love the mindless organization and alphabetizing...

3. Buttermilk. My daddy taught me to drink it straight up with Salt. Bret thinks it's disgusting. 'nuff said.

List one taste you've acquired from your partner:

Modern movies. Terminator. Die Hard. Back to the Future. Never saw them before. I grew up in the 50s (my parents were older when they had me; they missed the 60s, 70s and 80s - they had 3 50s) and so all this media was completely new to me.

List one taste your partner has acquired from you:

Roger Zelazny. Hail to the king.
