30. They’re about to get on a plane – what do you say?

Take care!  Let me know when you get there, so I know you’re safe (I don’t care what time it is, just let me know).

29. What is one thing about your partner(s) that drives you nuts? What’s one thing that makes you smile?

Trydaen
Nuts: The insistence that all my problems are because I don’t have perspective or that I need to accept that everything is a choice.
Smile: All the random things that I learn from or about him each day – still, after 5 years.

Diplomat
Nuts: The difference in blanket weight needed at night.
Smile: That smile…

Lola
Nuts: The massive differences that her extroversion and my introversion can cause in social situations or between us.
Smile: The way she treats the people arpund her – including her kids, roommate, me, metamours, etc.

28. What’s an in-joke between you and your partner(s)?

Lola – not so much a joke, but she asks “Can I keep you?” or says that she’ll keep me.  Heck, at our polycule holiday event, she said she’ll keep Trydaen around.

Trydaen – That the stuffed penguins (bed penguins or penguin bugs) that I sleep with will bite in our sleep.

Diplomat – A particular ASL sign with a throat clearing.
