My Husband is the Sexiest Man Alive
Which in No Way Detracts from Jennifer Wagner's AC's Sexiest Men of 2009 Article
We met in college whilst I was energetically pursuing my degree and he was energetically pursuing a career logging most time in the cafeteria drinking coffee and ranting about Reaganomics, British motorcycles and the poetry of Pink Floyd. At nineteen, he smoked like a old Dodge truck with bad exhaust. Dressed in his prized American made black leather jacket and smelling deliciously of Aqua Velva, this guy was mouthy, cocksure and funny as hell. He had a lopsided smile that managed to be silly, sexy and seductive all at the same time. When he smiled at you, you felt like the prettiest girl in the world and wanted to have babies with him. His blue-green eyes were like Lake Michigan after a storm when the sun is at it's zenith.
He was that nifty combination of gear head and philosopher. His favorite book was of course the wonderful Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. He can repair just about anything, from our daughter's necklace to our son's Firebird. And keep us a steady stream of political and economic diatribes, too. He loves polish food, his German heritage, Irish Stout, stray cats and babies. He's not ashamed to cry, laugh and hug his boys. He goes to confession every week and really does try to swear less afterwords. He's as loud and rambunctious as a Michigan thunderstorm and his anger blows over just about as quickly. He reads stories to the kids, plays a ruthless game of Battleship, tells every he loves them every day and has even been known to paint his little daughter's fingernails when mommy had to go away for a couple days to take a teacher training.
After 22 years of marriage, six babies, multiple deaths in the family, including two stillborn daughters he still has that charming crooked smile and fiery blue eyes. There are some silver threads among the gold in his hair, but he still works six days a week, ten hours a day and comes home to fix my shower massager and bring me coffee in the morning. He reads his daily missal and prays the rosary every day.
His children adore him and love his boisterous child-like energy. This man and I have been up more steep hills and down into more deep valleys than I could count or rename. I'm sure life's got a lot of living left for us. I'm glad indeed to have such a sexy guy to go through life with. Ad Infinitum et Aeternum, lover boy.

Post a CommentOh, and a very good portrait of the two of you at the beginning of your article. Love it.
Having just his your company this Thanksgiving, I can attest to his wonderful, bone-crunching hugs. I personally think it's his lopsided grin that makes him so unique. That and his ever handy pliers with which he likes to tweak ears (very gently, of course). He's indeed your very special guy. And funny thing is - his kids are very much resembling him as they grow older.
Wonderful trubute - your hubby sounds awesome!
LOVE THIS! what a beautiful, fun and well written tribute!
Aww Marilisa...you are so sweet. You and your husband are very lucky to have each other! You made me smile today!!! :)
Thank god this wasn't a slideshow of your husband I thought this was gonna be a porn slideshow :-) ... Congratulations on your successful marriage!
Sounds like you're both lucky!
Excellent tribute...refreshing in this day of so much divorce!
Sounds okay to me. Not as good as my husband, mind you, but if you're happy, that's all that matters.
Wow, I'm jealous...Nice article! :-)
