I've been wanting to join in this for awhile. I've finally got my act together, so here it is:

Thirteen Reasons I Love Marcus

1. He's a Live-In Systems Administrator. Do you have any idea how much headache it saves having his wealth of knowledge at my fingertips?
2. He's a kid at heart. One of the reasons I don't yet feel 40 is because he's around.
3. He doesn't play emotional mind games. He tells me what he thinks. I can take it or leave it.
4. He picks interesting pet names for me. For instance, I've been on a yellow/black craze since I got my Baja. It's yellow/gray/black, my bike is yellow/black, my new biking gloves are yellow/black...you get the picture. His new name for me is "Bumble D" (D is for Donna). Get it? Cute, huh?
5. He's tough on the outside, but a softie on the inside (you should've seen him with our baby bunnies!).
6. He doesn't mind doing laundry or the dishes.
7. He puts up with my horrific mood swings.
8. He has incredible patience when trying to teach or explain something to me that I want to learn.
9. We never run out of things to talk about. It's been 14 years and we can still talk for hours.
10. He's a dog person.
11. Our lives may suck at times, but it's never been boring.
12. He does his best to support me in whatever it is I want to do.
13. He loves me, too!
