This is good. I’m two for two now. I decided since I’m going to keep an ongoing list of all the reasons Pat adores me I should start asking him more often. SO….
When Pat goes to bed before I do he usually watches me walk across the room to change my clothes and then back to the bathroom to brush my teeth…and if he’s NOT watching…say…because he’s got the laptop with him, then I do my best to attract attention to myself. Normally I do a very exaggerated cat walk from point A to point B…as if I’m a top model walking during fashion week in NYC. I do the horse legs, the shoulder twist-twist, sometimes a hair flip.
One night I was being extra obnoxious about it and Pat (who never breaks a serious face when I do this and “pretends” not to watch so as not to encourage my needy behavior) looks up and shooshes me.
Me: What!?!
Pat: Your Stomping! You’re gonna wake someone up!!
Me: It’s not a STOMP…it’s my signature walk…and I won’t change my signature walk for ANYBODY…not even YOU.
Blah blah blah. We went to bed.
So LAST night, I asked Pat once again (to his delight) before going to bed, “What’s another thing you’ll miss about me if I die, which I probably won’t before you because you’re much much older than me, but if I DID…what’s something??”
His response??
“Your signature walk.”
MY SIGNATURE WALK!!! I KNEW he was paying attention to that. Pretend all you want Patty-Cakes, but I am ON to you! He likes my signature walk. How sweet.
What Pat Will Miss About Me If I Die:
1.) The smell of my soap.
2.) My signature walk
Stay tuned…more to come!!
