What Would You Say?

You know, I'm really not that bad of a guy, but I have plenty of days when I just can't seem to fire on all cylinders. Actually, that's most days. I can be a skoshi demanding and don't always express myself in the most artful manner. I know Allison loves me because she's put up with me for almost twelve years now. But, unfortunately for Allison, that means she has to put up with a lot.

Those of you who know me could probably come up with a few words to describe me, remembering off days are really the norm. Here's my crack at a list:

• irascible
• peevish
• petulant
• grumpy
• cranky
• moody
  
• unstable (perhaps)
• [Insert (in)appropriate three-to-four letter words and derivative combinations here]

But this post really isn't supposed to be about me.

I really want to express to Allison how incredible I really think she is. I'm not sure how to do that, because my words are hard enough for her to take sometimes. And then, when you throw in the idea that actions speak louder than words, well, I don't always end up with a Happygram at the end of the day.

So, I'll get working harder on my end, but I'd like to open this up to you, our vast throng of readers, (which apparently has increased considerably concomitant with Allison's Facebook addiction), but I digress - I'd like to open up the comments of this post for everyone to offer up one or many qualities you admire about Allison or a happy experience with Allison, recent or long ago.

I'll be giving this some additional thought myself and will comment or post a follow-up later on.
