I'm the girl

who wants to stare into your eyes for as long as I love to stare at the stars

who loves getting a manicure after getting my hands dirty in the garden or making something with power tools

who loves your friends

who has a hot dinner waiting on you after a long day at work

who doesn't mind you leave your socks on the floor

who doesn't care if you hole up in a studio for days

who's happy to haul gear

who loves to laugh as loudly as possible

who loves to get in a car, and flip a coin for left or right

who starts water balloon fights

who cries at movies, gushes over babies, and listens to slayer

who will show up looking great so you can feel lucky you get to take me home

who is faithful to a fault

who knows love is more than just words

who can appreciate the beauty in art, no matter what it is

who loves to dance, even if there's no music playing and no matter who's watching; even in the middle of the store

who never stops learning

who gets so engrossed in a book you don't see me for the entire day till I'm done

who loves hearing stories of your childhood from your mom

who sees something in a store i know you would like and just *have* to surprise you with it

who can afford my own shoe habit but still expect you to pay for dinner

who always buys the first round

who loves to be treated like a lady while cussing like a sailor

who loves getting tattoos and pedicures

who has certain songs that always bring me to tears

who has a bad day but would never take it out on you

who cares if you had a good day, and if it was bad, wants to hear about it and make it better

who has a life outside of you but still wants you to be a part

who doesn't care if you have porn, and will watch it with you

who can't have children traditionally but loves to try

who has goals

who writes in journals, and creates things just because

who thinks comic books and RPG's are fun

who loves to open the windows on a cold day and snuggle under a mountain of blankets

who will yell at the TV watching sports louder than you

who loves to stay up all night talking

who looks forward to my first cup of coffee but isn't grumpy before I get it

who is happy with myself with or without you
