Life Partner Check List ~ 8/15/2012
Ok, here I am sitting in Easthampton having sangria and hanging out in my roommate Brenda's room. We have been talking about the things that we look for in boyfriends or husbands and she said that she knows so many people who marry people who are opposite, or who don't fit their ideal list. She challenged me to make a list of my own with qualities that I think I want in a husband and when I'm married to go back and see how my list compares to my husband, or how my priorities have changed.
So here I go...
My Perfect Life Partner Check List

-Always votes Democratic - knowing the importance of keeping the liberal vote together
-Politically aware, knowing whats going on/how it affects people
-PRO FOOD STAMPS/CHOICE
