Typical Brandon

I think one of the things I love the most about Brandon is that he is so genuine. He never says anything with out meaning it. He just is who he is, and seriously does not care what ANYONE thinks. And for the most part I love that about him and the rest of me, just shakes my head and laughs. Oh how he can make me laugh!
The first week we were dating, goofing around at Walmart
Part of Brandon's easy going attitude is he will ride his scooter to work even if it's 20 degrees outside. The great thing about the scooter is you never have to put gas in it. It just goes and goes. Well Brandon's struggle in life is remembering things, like putting gas in the scooter, and leaving his wallet is the car, that I drive. So one morning Brandon is on his way out to work and gets on the scoot and realizes, no gas. No big deal its 2 bucks to fill up. Goes inside...no money in the house. So he looks high and low for any money (because its all safely with me!) and only comes up with a dime.
Most people would then give up.
But Brandon is NOT like most people.
Brandon when we were first dating, I convinced him to let me color his hair
He hops on the scoot and pulls into the gas station on fumes (its literally a second away from our condo) and puts about a squirt of gas in the scoot, till he gets to 10 cents...
At this point, if I would ever have been at this point, I would cry from embarrassment.
Oh but Brandon in his confident nature walks into the gas station and hands the girl a dime, "for pump 2."
The girl looks at him confused, "Is this a joke?"
Brandon smiles and walks out, hops on the scoot and off to work he goes. Not a second thought about it.

The funny thing is that 10 cents actually got him to work and back!
Oh I love my husband dearly, he keeps a smile on my face!
