Tonight I spent my afternoon and evening with my gorgeous fiancee, Emilie. This particular day was what one would call the classic “lazy day”. From the time we got together up until now, while I’m laying in bed, we watched tv. Grey’s Anatomy, for those interested.
As we were watching our show in bed, she said she was starting to fall asleep. No big deal.
But tonight was different….as I laid in bed with a computer on my lap and the show playing, I glanced down and saw my stunning future bride curled up with her head beside my chest and her hand draped over me holding mine. It was adorable. It was great. It was beyond peaceful, it was serene. It was perfect. It’s what I want my future to be; what I’m so very excited to have. A partner that I can be so close to and yet so relaxed around. It seems like a rather plebeian situation, but for some reason it became very real tonight. Very soon I will no longer be turning off the computer, kissing her goodnight, and heading to a different bedroom. Very soon I will not be spending nights alone. And I can not wait.
I love that I have someone so special in my life. Someone I can go on big adventures with, but who is content with a quiet walk down the street. Someone who can fight like a warrior, but who can forgive like a saint. Someone who drives me crazy, but makes me happy at an unparalleled level. Someone that is okay with whatever we do, as long as we’re doing it together. Someone who truly completes me at the most fundamental levels.

Anonymous asked: Have you done tumblrdatinggame(.)com yet?
Well, I’ve never even heard of it, but I checked it out. Sounds like a really fun idea and a great way to meet people :) However, since I’m two months away from getting married, I don’t exactly need a dating site. But I think it’s a really neat idea :) Thanks for the question :)

Here it is:
Have a larger vocabulary. In other words, you should consistently be venturing to expand your lexicon. Nothing sounds more ridiculous than a person who speaks with the verbal equivalency of a cat on a keyboard.

The T.V. you buy should be double your age.
Now, the initial rule had something along the lines of “this stops being practical after…” but I realized…It never stops being practical :p

Here comes rule number two:
The numbers of straws you use should be equal to your age. Whether it’s the movie theater or just at home, this should always be happening.

I’m awesome. Don’t deny it, we all know it’s true. People often ask me, “Jake, how are you so truly amazing?” and I’ve oft given hints and tricks. But it’s time I share my secrets with the rest of the world…and by world I mean the 9 or so people who follow this blog :p
So, over the next little bit I’ll be posting a few tips on how to be awesome.
Let’s start off tonight with Tip Number 1:
It’s all in the hair. Rock out a good haircut or hair style and you’re well on your way to being awesome. Avoid voluntarily going bald. If it’s genetic, that’s fine. But in general, bald isn’t very sexy. Unless you’re a cancer patient or a survivor. Then f**k cancer. Wear bald with pride.
