I'm glad my love for Miss Chef, and her love for her profession, came through. <br /><br />Although, after finding her asleep in her car in the driveway at 11:30 one night, I thought I should make an addendum along the lines of "Being married to a chef is like living with a binge drunk..."Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09081652747471904560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-24596064974612460382012-02-18T13:09:30.113-05:002012-02-18T13:09:30.113-05:00I think living and loving any creative person with...I think living and loving any creative person with a fierce passion and drive can be challenging and rewarding. My love is a painter, but the similarities are striking. When the muse hits or a big show is on the horizon, I can expect long hours in the studio and days when I catch only a glimpse of him. That's when it's my job to remind him to eat, sleep or even speak. It's all part of the Artist's Spouse Code.Dillypoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606407001734391259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-64198246348928852202012-02-17T18:43:58.844-05:002012-02-17T18:43:58.844-05:00Wow.

And what a lovely one you wrote, dear Flartus!<br /><br />My honey is famous for her ability to forget all sorts of important dates, like my birthday (I don't want to talk about it) and Valentine's Day. This year, I am happy to say, she did not forget, and I found under my pillow a card in the shape of a bed that sang to me: "King-sized, Queen-sized, in-between-sized, I don't care much it's true. As long as I'm tucked up in bed with snuggly, huggly you - Woo hoo!" That will keep her in my good books - at least until my next birthday...Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04500606532723836054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-20371193464119840392012-02-15T13:35:56.280-05:002012-02-15T13:35:56.280-05:00jenny, I know!

Or 366 this year. <br /><br />How does that poop all over the floor in a public washroom even happen? My son works in a department store where part of his myriad duties is to clean up the washrooms if something like that happens.
