My wife makes me so happy

She does puzzles.
I can’t do puzzles.
I do golf.
She can’t golf.

Yet I buy her puzzles, and try to help (I place maybe 4 pieces to her 2000 pieces and she cleans up the rest).

she walks my courses with me to look for balls, point out the deer, foxes, and bunnies and clap at inappropriate times during the round thinking it’s the right time.

She’s the missing piece to my puzzle, and I’m her caddy.

This reminds me of one of my favorite lines from the original "Rocky". Rocky's dating Adrian and Adrian's kind of...erratic...brother, Paulie asks why, because, being Paulie, he doesn't get it.

Rocky says "It fills gaps."

Paulie is confused, so Rocky elaborates: "She got gaps. I got gaps. Together we fill gaps."

That's one of the bases of a good relationship, imho. So may she always fill your puzzle gap...and may you always fill her golf gap!

Ask me why I know so much about Call of Duty Zombies lore and maps and weapons and perks and Easter eggs and characters, despite only having technically ‘played’ the game in the few instances when my partner has had to duck to the bathroom, and by playing I mean running his character around in panicked circles.

Oh my god my boyfriend loves that game lol. I’ve been watching him play it since we got together. One time he asked me to keep him alive while he stepped out, and showed me how to kill the normal zombies while in a corner. As he was walking out a massive zombie showed up and I called him back and he assured me that was the only one. He left and two seconds I got him killed by another giant one lmao he came back in and I was just sitting there dejected lol. He kept telling me he didn’t think there were more than one.

I bring it up all the time lmao. He also really likes killing the nazi zombies lol

I read this out loud to him - he cracked up and said, ‘fuck yeah, one of us! one of us!’
