If you are married to someone who gets rid of junk right away, this story will not resonate with you.
If you are married to someone who files his important papers in labeled files - if he believes in files, not piles, then this story will not resonate with you.

"Let's get naked," I said.

ReplyDelete(fwiw, my husband is the househusband/cleaner person of the two of us, and also has the lower libido. One night, he looked at me and said "hey, wanna get busy?" and I RAN for the bedroom to clear the clothes he'd washed but I hadn't put away off the bed and get them cleared away. He said "Oh. THIS is how to get you to clean. I get it. Hmmmm. I think I wanna do it in the kitchen...")

Love your story! And yes, I am happy - Ted has dropped off the face of the earth for a short time, apparently.)
