4:18 pmMy Marriage: The Opera
Every few months I find myself getting a little vexed about the amount of time my dear husband spends with his face pressed into the blue glow of the computer monitor, being a virtual Nightelf druid, staving off evil in the all-too-real-to-them (yet very fictional) world of Azeroth. And when I begin my vexing cycle, I always recall a beautiful song that my dear husband dedicated to me on my 30th birthday… in front of all of my friends. It’s a song that I feel could have been written just for me. It’s a song that keeps me smiling as I sit –alone– in bed, waiting into the wee hours for said Nightelf husband to shut off the computer and emerge from the dungeon (aka- the basement) and come to freakin bed!
Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the Aussie comedy group, “Tripod“, as they set my marriage to music:
Yeah, I’ve posted it before, and I will most likely post it again. I just love it.

Ok, I needed that laugh.
I feel your pain. (Ahem. I can be caught occasionally playing Buffy on our X-Box, but I do it FOR THE KIDS. Because of my mamalove and all.)
Have a great weekend.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: TOO FUNNY!
It’s funny because it’s REAL.
(I’m not sure what’s up with the caps. I guess I’m feeling loud.)

I hear you girl! Not only does my lovely husband stay up all night on the weekends to pursue this interest (he says it’s insomnia), he also thinks a Sims 2 (the only game I have on my laptop) upgrade is the perfect gift for me, for any occasion. I try to let him know, that I am actually a girl and sometimes, a pair of earrings or dinner at a nice restaurant would be a more romantic gift, but he won’t hear of it. He is so generous, he even bought me a Wii. I have played it once, for 5 minutes. Then there’s the, “I want to spend time with you, do you want to watch me play this game? It will be fun!” Ain’t love grand? I just wonder how all these computer nerds got all us hot women in the first place. I guess this is the price we pay for smart husbands.
