2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature?
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week?
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person?
Re: NDR Poll: AW your SO/DH.
1. What is his/her best physical feature? His eyes. DUDE. He has eyelashes that would make covergirl blush.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He plays the piano really really well. And he's just got a very sweet personality.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? He took me on a surprise "date" on Sunday - we drove to a little town about 2 hours north of here, just to have lunch.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? Since January he's lost 30+ pounds and is down TWO pants sizes! I'm so proud of him for jumping in with both feet and embracing both healthier eating AND exercise.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He can always make me laugh. No matter what. And he gives awesome massages.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? Well, he surprised me by buying me The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo on blue-ray today. Yay!
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? This may sound silly, but I'm proud that he's trying to eat vegetarian with me! He is a pretty big meat person, so a lot of the times I cook him a meat dish and I just eat whatever it is without the meat. But he's been eating a lot of non-meat foods and really enjoying them lately.
1. What is his/her best physical feature? Piercing blue eyes
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? Open mindedness. And he is an amazing dad.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? Slept in DS' room Saturday night because DS wasn't feeling well. He didn't get a lot of sleep, but still urged me to keep my date with friends and head up skiing all day on Sunday.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? He has the vision, passion, drive, and knowledge to start up two separate businesses. Allows him to do what he loves while maintaining a great work/life balance (so on the three days a week I work he is the one who is able to take/pick up DD from kindergarten).
1. What is his/her best physical feature? His big brown eyes. And not sure if this is physical or non-physical but he has an awesome, soothing deep voice.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He is the most non-judgemental person EVER almost to a fault that when I want to diss someone, he won't go along.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? Went to the garden center with me and didn't complain or rush me even though he didn't want to go.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? He opened a trust account for our nephew who has Down's Syndrome. His sister isn't planning very well for his future and nephew's dad is no where to be found.
1. What is his/her best physical feature? Toss up between his curly hair and his most awesome butt. He has the best behind I have ever seen.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He is so darn creative.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? He listened to me rant about work this week :
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? He has a medal from one of the top ballroom competitions in the country. Super proud of that.

3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? He makes me dinner every night.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? He has been working hard to (finally) finish his college degree. He walked in his ceremony for his accelerated program but was 43 credits short. Half way there!

1. What is his/her best physical feature? His back and arms, and butt--we're talking Greek sculpture looking butt ;-)

1. What is his/her best physical feature? His arms... and his smile... and his eyes... and his back... I can't pick just one
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He's hilarious and fun and so honest and loyal... again I can't pick one, I could type and type and type!
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? He woke up at the buttcrack of dawn with me yesterday (even though he should get to sleep for 2 more hours) to feed and play with the dogs because I didn't sleep well (and kept him up!) and he wanted me to have a relaxing morning
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? I'm so proud of his work ethic and incredible talent. One day he'll be famous (at least to industry insiders, he's behind the camera/ in post) and I'm so proud of him!
Planned Executed
1. What is his/her best physical feature? Great butt.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? His big scientist brain. Maybe that's still physical? Anyway, he's really smart and practical. Practical is very important for me.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? Brought me flowers last Friday.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? His career. He was in school for.ever, but he loves what he does, and he does it well.
1. What is his/her best physical feature? His long, wild, thick hair (or his beefed up shapely shoulders mmm).
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? His outspokenness, wit, humor. I will never be bored with this man.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? Appreciated and was thankful that I enjoy his hobby (tracking abandoned railroads) as much as he does. I love that awareness.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? I love that he stands by his liberal politics and values and is willing to calmly debate irrational idiots.
I'm a little late to the party but here I go
1. What is his/her best physical feature? He has really great arms. Not "I go to the gym for 60 hours a week" arms, but they're nice.
2. What is his/her best NON-physical feature? He is the most chivalrous person I have ever met. Not only does he open and hold the door for me 100% of the time, there could be 5,000 people behind us and he would continue to hold the door for everyone. He will run ahead to open the door for the elderly, makes me love him more and more everytime. He also has a hard time walking past someone in need (homeless, etc) without giving them something. I think this has a lot to do with the fact that he was raised mostly by his grandparents.
3. What is the nicest thing s/he did this week? He's been out of town for two weeks so I haven't seen him. He did listen to my endless yapping about random things throughout the week.
4. What is one thing that you're proud of on behalf of this person? See #2.
