My Significant Other Tag

Yes! I love this tag because I get to talk about my hunk of man-meat, the Shane-meister.

His name: Shane K. Johnson

How long have you been married?: 7 years 5 months

How long did you date?: We met in August of '99, and were married July of '00. That's seven years in Mormon dating time.

How old is he: 30

Who eats more? Him. I am on a strict diet of celery and black market phen-fen. (I know a guy...)

Who said "I love you" first? Him. I was merely the helpless co-ed being preyed upon.

Who is taller? Him. He is 6' and I am a dainty 5'7 and 1/2"

Who sings better? I've got him beat with Broadway, but he kills it with Johnny Cash and Willy Nelson. I love when he sings "To all the girls I loved before" to Hank. It makes me want to hurl.

Who is smarter? Shane is way more street smart. But I am good with kung fu stuff.

Whose temper is worse? His. But most of the time I had it coming to me.

Who does the laundry? He does. When I do it, it becomes a week-long project.

Who does the dishes? Our butler Benito.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? We sleep in a tangled mass of flesh I like to compare to a erotic Rodin sculpture...Just kidding. I do.

Who pays the bills? He does. I like to live in a little slice of heaven called Denial-ville.

Who mows the lawn? He does. He likes to mow our lawn into intricate rows resembling a baseball field. He is also slightly OCD.

Who cooks dinner? I do. I mash potatoes like no ones business.

Who drives when you are together? He does, and it's kind of a source of contention in our marriage. I mean, it's as though we were never liberated at all!

Who is more stubborn? Me. Totally. No competition. I'm Irish, and I'm Anne's daughter. But I know I'm okay cause God dont make no junk.

Who is the first to admit when they are wrong? Shane, but I have gotten a lot better at this over the years. Both times I have been wrong were great teaching lessons.

Whose parents do you see the most? Shane's, since they live 12 houses away from us. But they are such a blessing!!

Who proposed? He did. We went to the San Diego temple where he had to scare off some Sister Missionaries that were tailing us. He proposed very sweetly on one knee then proceeded to put the ring on the wrong finger. Classic Shane!

Who has more friends? Me. I am way more outgoing. But when Shane has a friend they are brothers for life. In all honesty, his friendship is an honor.

Who has more siblings? The same. We are both middle children and sport matching chips on our shoulders.

Who wears the pants in the family? I like to talk big, but it's totally Shane. He is the head of our family. I am just the trophy wife. He makes me laugh like no other, and he is the best guy a girl could ask for.

I now tag Bethany, Nicole, Marianne, Karine, and Steph!
