Here. Have Some Free Advice.

I have accumulated a vast array of knowledge in my 573 days of marriage.  I would like to speak for a moment to my female readers who are still single (married womenfolk, you're next!).  Here are a few valuable skills I would like to encourage you to work on before you are blessed with the gift of a husband:

1. Become an expert on at least one sport.  You don't have to master all of them.  It can even be Cricket.
2. Own at least one roll of quality duct tape.
3. Have a hobby that does not involve shoes or an outlet mall.
4. Learn how to not...
     A) throw a football/baseball,
     B) putt a golf ball, and
     C) squeal at an incoming volleyball
                                                           ...like a girl
5. Be able to appreciate The Godfather, Star Trek, Rocky, and/or anything with Sean Connery.

For the female readers who do happen to be married, the best thing that I can point you to is a fan-freaking-tastic book by Gary Chapman called Sacred Influence.  Seriously.  Get it and devour it.  In a culture that belittles men and encourages women to be manipulative, this book is an absolute gem in how it encourages wives to support and influence their husbands in Godly ways.
