Today is Q's and my 15th anniversary. We just celebrated last weekend because Q has customers in town all week. Today's Thursday 13 illustrates my theory as to why we have lasted so long--we are complete opposites.
1. He’s a country boy and I’m a city girl.
2. He’s quiet, easy going, and laid back. I am loud, wound up like a top, and easily stressed.
3. His style is simple and casual. Mine is colorful and flamboyant.
4. He’s a saver; I’m a spender.
5. He’s a left brain; I’m a right brain.
6. His movie preferences include court room dramas, action films and whodunits, while I like comedies and cheesy, campy garbage films.
7. He loves to cook, bake, grocery shop, and watch Food Network. I prefer order a pizza.
8. He likes to watch the Fox News Channel. I prefer….anything but.
9. Him: banana nut bread. Me: Banana Republic
10. He likes ice cubes. I prefer my ice crushed.
11. He thinks I have enough handbags. I think he should be grateful that I’m not a jewelry person.
12. My ideal date night: Dinner at an upscale sushi bar in North Scottsdale…complete with valet parking and overpriced Jell-O Martinis. His ideal date night: Attending a Diamondbacks game where the tickets and food are free. Double points if it’s t-shirt giveaway night.
13. I’m picky about the cars I drive. I will only buy cars that have things like cool taillights, big radio buttons, and the shifter has to be on the floor. His only requirement for a car is that it runs.

Val, this is a lovely post. Look at the two of you - both gorgeous! You compliment each other, enhance each other's life. Oh I almost forgot - based on the early posts on this blog, you lasted this long because you love each other :-)
Congratulations!

Ces--Thank you. We do look good. Although I think we look better in our 30s than we did there. I certainly have better hair.
KJ--Thank you. I got just as much pleasure writing it.
Irene--Thank you for stopping by. I checked out your blog and it's cool. I'll be back often.
Denise--Thank you, but that's only because the lady at the salon did it.
Val, why is it that my birth sister and the sister from whom I was separated at birth are so gorgeous? What's up with that?
Oh, you pretty up just fine, Christopher. You've got nicer legs than woman I know!
Have I told you yet that I like the picture? Oh yeah, I did on myspace, let me say it again - love the photo! You look so pretty and he is so handsome - you look good together!
