If you could dress your partner for the day, would you? If I dressed James for the day I'd be tempted put him in a pinny (and nothing else) and make him be my maid for the day!
When James and I first met he was a young 'un living with his mum and dad (he's almost 7 years younger than me) and his mum was buying most of his clothes. He dressed a lot more conservatively than he does now - he used to wear sports tops, jeans and trainers - and now he's evolved to band t shirts, jeans and boots. If I were to dress him up for the day this is the kind of thing I'd want him to wear.
I've seen everyone and their mother do facts posts about themselves recently (and of course, I'm always posting stuff about myself) but I haven't seen anyone do some fun facts about their significant other. So here I am!
He is obsessed with computers. He had his first computer aged 3, works in IT, builds computers for fun then comes home and guess what?! He's straight back on the pc after we have tea. When we go to our friend's and families' houses, he usually ends up solving all their pc-related problems.
He passed his driving test 10 years before he bought his first car.
He looks so young without stubble. I asked him not to shave it all off for our wedding. He complied, like a good hubby should! ;)
He plays drums and guitar.
He moved from London to be with me.
He's really close to his mum and Skype calls her 2-3 times a week. Awwwww.
He likes cats, but not dogs.
He has never had a hot drink.
He has no tattoos, but I'm working on that ;)
He hardly ever swears and rarely loses his temper.
He was born on Christmas Day, his first 2 initials are JC and he has long hair. What can I say?!
He loves Red Dwarf, the Aliens films and Star Trek.
He's so optimistic it's ridiculous.
He has an impressive collection of band t-shirts.
He has stockpiles in Bournville dark chocolate.
Feel free to tell me a few things about your significant other (if you have one.)
Hubby had his ingrown toenail removed yesterday. The patient is doing well, but is in a lot of pain. Me? I'm totally bloody frazzled! The moment my arse is about to hit the sofa, he decides he wants something else. Now I know how hard it was for him looking after me when I came out of hospital. Respect due.
My hat is off to any of you out there who are carers!
There will be less blogging for the next week or so while I have him at home, so apologies in advance.
To make this day totally husband-flavoured, I have another post about him coming up at 5pm - some fun facts about the Mr.
He's the king of silly faces, yet hates me capturing them.
He's my heavy bag carrier and loves chauffeuring me around.
He has better hair than me and eyelashes like a Jersey cow (the sod.)
He puts up with my shopping habits and complements me all the time.
He makes a lovely cup of tea and takes care of me.
He's really funny, but is shy about it so no one else gets to see it.
He laughs his head off when I'm ranting and loves it when I swear, the strange boy ;)
My family adore him, but not as much as I do.
It'll be 10 years together in April, and 1 year married.
Love you, husband face.
(He'll be a bit embarrassed when I tell him I've posted this, but he'll come round.)
Here's my favourite Valentine themed song.
I used to have a massive girl-crush on Carol Decker when I was a teenager. T'Pau's album Bridge of Spies was the first one I ever bought and I can still remember most of the words. God, I'm old!
