American Gluttony
As Robo pointed out in the post below, Sean can eat with the best of them. I have found 2 pictures that illustrate this and are a tad awkward. These were clearly during S Dub's "pre Euro" days...

From "Lander Love" to love way after Lander
Sean spent many years living on college campuses surrounded by students he was not allowed to date. Sean's precarious love life, and lack thereof, was a favorite topic of RAs on his staff. Attempting to date someone and keep it a secret from your staff is always a challenge but Sean tried.
And failed.
Someone always happened to see him get off the bus with the cute girl and take her to his apartment to presumably share a pint of Ben & Jerry's (bought on campus with his meal plan, of course) and play a round of Yahtzee. What actually happened when they went in to his apartment is unclear but we believe it had something to do with stretching his hip.
After a bit of harassment, eventually he would give up and tell everyone the story of the nice girl he met and a few details that weren't supposed to be inappropriate but when interpreted by 20 year old RAs became insanely awkward. After none of those girls ever stuck around after a few weeks, for his 31 birthday Sean was gifted with a woman shaped object made out of balloons from his staff, kindly left on top of his bed for him when he got home. We figured that at 31 he should have at least something resembling a woman near his bedroom.
Last October I had to witness one of the 'internet dates' between Sean and this girl from Westmont he was dating but not really since they'd only gone on one date. It was terrifying. When I finally met Paige in person I 1) adored her instantly and 2) was really freaked out watching Sean touch a woman and have her like it.
It should go without saying that every RA who has ever worked for Sean is thrilled he has finally found a hot woman to hang out with for the rest of his life who doesn't mind being labeled as a persuader. It helps that Paige is an amazing person with the kindest heart of anyone I've met. Paige brings out the best in a guy that was pretty darn terrific even before August 2008.
PB, a few things to remember once you start waking up next to Sean everyday...
- Sean loves kitchen towels and dislikes paper towels, especially when the kitchen towel is casually thrown over his shoulder.
- Sean gets cranky when he is hungry. Very very cranky.
- Sean can eat faster than you so don't challenge him to an eating contest.
- Sean likes to win.
- Sean does not like clothes that make him look gay. Shopping with him and finding fashionable clothing can get tricky for this reason.
- Sean likes Rice Krispies in large quantities.
- Sean likes things to be in their proper place and yes, everything has a proper place.
- Sean is a good listener but when he meets a nice girl and falls in love with her he will talk your eat off for three days about how terrific she is.
Cheers to S-Dub and what I sincerely hope is an amazing weekend full of embarassing pictures for everyone else to enjoy.

Lists
As you all know, "Whity" loves lists and he is the writer between the two of us but I am going to create my own list of things that I love about Sean. PS. this is not an extensive list! :)
1. He is so cute!
2. He loves to sing karaoke with Thai people!!3. He will get pedicures with me!
4. He loves life and all the adventures it holds!
5. He loves family!
6. He loves food from around the world!! (Actually he loves any kind of food)
7. He loves picnics with wine, cheese, meats, and more cheese! (This is our engagement picnic)
This list could really go on forever but the next picture shows how I really feel when I am with Sean. He makes me laugh and enjoy life.
Whity is an amazing man and I am so excited to marry him on the 6th of September 2009! He brings joy and love into my life that I never knew I was missing. God created in him the things I have always wanted and needed. I am so thankful and privileged to be his wife!
I know that he is having a great time in KC with all his guys and I am so thankful that he has as amazing of friends as you all are! Thanks for loving him and preparing him for me! I am forever indebted and will probably be calling you to remind myself that he is the weird one, not me!
Here's to Whity Waggle Weekend! (wish I was a fly on the wall)
the waggle is on.
Whity fully embraced his waggle. Something about a large man and balloons always draws a crowd.
