http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/My attempt at communicating to others my interpretation of what love is, what it took for me to get where I am, advice on relationships, and anything else I can babble about regarding the four letter word starting with "L." <p> <img src="http://tinypic.com/uxci">hourly12000-01-01T12:00+00:00http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/243311How many guys can claim that they enjoy shoe shopping with their wives? For most this is a nightmarish scenario. I mean, who knows how long she'll be wandering around trying on all sorts of shoes? And then she lays down hard earned cash on something she'll probably only wear twice in a year (if...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/241700I've posted on this before, but I do tend to ponder it once in a while. I got to thinking about how perfect Katie is for me. I think about all the other girls I ever wanted to go out with and realize (now) that most of them, if not all of them, wouldn't have worked out as perfectly. Maybe it was...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/238315Sunday night was nice because Katie and I finally got to see each other for more than an hour. Our schedules are just so full right now that it's tough getting to see one another. So naturally, our sexual urges were quite a bit strong at that point. The sad part is that we had to actually...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/235606Katie got an email last night saying she didn't get into the University of British Columbia. So that's one of her two top choices out of the picture. Well, not completely; UBC said that if one of the students they accepted turns them down, they'll call Katie with an offer. But that's very...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/234008My Katie time has been severely limited in the past few weeks. The play she's helping with opens tonight and up until now she's been there for all the rehearsals and stuff. I get to eat dinner with her sometimes, but that's about it. It sucks, but I'm not suffering just yet. I actually sort of...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/231381I have a feeling this is going to be a hard month for me. As many of you know, Katie has been applying for grad schools. Now, we had a talk a long time ago about the possibility of her not getting accepted and what we would do if that happened. I knew even then that she wasn't taking what I said...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/228427Sunday morning, after a nice leisurely lie in bed and a tasty breakfast cooked by moi, Katie and I decided to shower together. We often do this on weekends because we have fun doing it and it's a nice way to cuddle. This day, however, we were a bit hot and bothered. So we attempted shower sex. It...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/227250As Valentine's Day approaches, I feel I should share my feelings on this most mushiest of holidays. I hate it. I think it's stupid, silly, and puts pressure on relationships. Katie feels the same way. We don't celebrate it. Actually, we wait until after Valentine's Day and then buy chocolates and...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/225433Two years ago today (technically tonight), I proposed to Katie. Did I ever tell you the story? No? Well, pull up a chair. It's actually nothing all that special. It's embarrassing, really. Katie and I had previously discussed marriage, so we knew it would happen. Well, in December of that year I...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/roofpig138294/222990Are you willing to do anything for the one you love? If you answer in the traditional romantic fashion, it's usually "yes." If you take time to think about the question, I mean really think about it, the answer is sometimes a more hesitant "yes." "Anything" is a pretty all-encompassing word. When...
