10 (More) Things You Don't Know About Me - The Tolar Edition

Thursday, December 27, 2012

Tolar has quite the sense of humor - making me laugh constantly - so I thought I would share his humor with all of you lucky readers. Below is a guest post from Tolar, offering up 10 Things You Don't Know About Me, but Tolar thinks you should know.
Enjoy.



Thanks for the intro babe, no pressure at all!
As the fabulous Lindsay mentioned, I'm going to share a few things that make her my one and only.  As silly as many of these may sound and as terrible as my humor may translate to text, I believe these are some of the little idiosyncrasies that make her who she is and keep me falling in love with her a little more every day.

1.)  Lindsay does not appear to have any sports related talents.  While she can run like a normal human being, throwing balls, swinging bats and shooting hoops are quite the hilarious sight to see.  I find the fact that she has never been able to do a pull up in her life quite fascinating.

2.) The wife thoroughly enjoys watching So You Think You Can Dance and this has rubbed off on me.  I truly believe her favorite part of the show is listening to my assessment of each performer and laughing at me in disbelief.  This leads me to #3.

3.) One of Lindsay's favorite phrases is, "Who are you and what have you done with my husband?"  This can be used in various scenarios.  For instance, after one of my commentaries during So You Think You Can Dance, "Who are you and what have you done with my husband?"  Or perhaps when I fold the laundry, take the trash out or have any sort of productive day before she gets home, "Who are you and what have you done with my husband?"

4.) My amazing wife is extremely uncomfortable with guns of any sort from BB to handguns and on up through rifles and shotguns, yet, she still married me.  I won't quite call myself a "gun nut," but I do hunt and own a fairly respectable collection of firearms and it is one of my all time favorite pastimes, especially with my dad.  This either shows a massive FAIL on wife's part or the extent of her affection for me by being able to overlook such a huge difference in our way of living.

5.) Lins can actually touch her tongue to her nose.  Fellas, this is not as awesome as it sounds, but at the very same time, it is exactly as awesome as it sounds.

6.) Lindsay kills a very large portion of the spiders in our house.  Tolar is not a fan.  Now, before you go calling me a pansy, please note that I have had this discussion with several of my friends and they agree that spiders are icky.

7.) Mrs. Good Lookin' leaves me cute little notes hidden all throughout my suitcase when I travel for work. The amount of notes she leaves is typically tied to the length of the trip.  The messages could be a simple "I love you" or a small letter filled with humor and love.  I'm a sappy sentimental fella, so I keep many of them in my "Lins Box."

8.) Lindsay takes up about 85% of the closest space in our house.  Now, there may be a lot of people out there thinking "duh!, she's a girl, you're a dude and that's what happens".  But what you have to understand is that I get one quarter of the closet in our room which I get to share with SOME of her shoe collection.  In case you're still thinking "Everyone saw this coming Tolar, why didn't you?" This part should come as a shocker to you.  While she takes up most of the closet space she takes up less than 1/3 of the king size bed.  The largest majority goes to our 7.5 lb. dog JoJo.

9.) My adorable, petite wife cannot stand to be scared.  This is perhaps her greatest flaw because the horror-film loving kid in me loves to be scared and thus loves to scare any and all he comes in contact with.  To this day, I have only scared Lindsay, intentionally, about 5 times.  We disagree on the number.  I feel I make a very strong case by arguing the definition of "intention."

10.) Lindsay wants three children, as do I, but she is absolutely terrified at the prospect of giving birth.  Lindsay is not what I would consider "tough" when it comes to handling pain.  So please keep me in your thoughts and prayers when we eventually have a child because I have a very strong feeling I will be the most hated man on earth when she is in the delivery room (don't worry, I fully plan on filling her "go bag" with sweet little notes so after she's finished yelling at me I can quickly begin filling my brownie point meter again).

I sincerely hope you have enjoyed learning a few things about Lindsay.  I cannot image a life without that amazing smile and incredible heart.  She brings joy to everyone she meets and that is why we all come back here day after day.
