matchmaker matchmaker, make me a match

so i went to dinner with my sister and nephew tonight.
at one point nate looked up at me and asked, "sooooo...emmy? when are you going to get married?"
ele and i looked at each across the table...trying to figure out how best to answer this.
nate proceeded in our silence to ask, "like, are you going to have a baby? ::softer, and more to himself:: i hope so...so i can have a cousin"
ele and i chuckled.

ele explained to him, "well, it's not that easy nate. she first needs to meet someone before getting to the point of marriage, and that it can't just be some random guy."

somehow this lead us into all the various traits that nate thinks i need in a mate. since it was entirely too amusing to keep to ourselves, here they are for your own entertainment!

some are quite humourous!

someone who...
  • likes to read books
  • is nice
  • is not bald
  • is born in 1982, so they are turning 28 this year
  • doesn't wet their pants
  • brushes their teeth, so they don't have bad breath when i kiss them
  • is not short, they can be 5'8" and 5 inches
  • has a good heart (we clarified that he didn't literally mean a good heart, as in won't have a heart attack)
  • makes me laugh because i'm a laughing kind of person
  • gets along with my family
  • isn't drunk, so they won't crash when we drive
  • likes me
  • knows good restaurants, like for birthdays and other get-togethers
  • is british, so they know about tea and stuff

for a 9 year old matchmaker, he's not too shabby.
glad he is looking out for my best interests :D
