Domesticated moments:
My wife: I’m going shopping. Want anything?
Me: Well, if the mood strikes–
My wife: We can’t afford moods!

My wife is, if anything, far too patient with me. If I were her, I would have given myself a good kick in the arse long ago.
She has these great reponses where she says something like, “Sure, you can buy that PowerBook. You just have to eat onigiri (el cheapo rice balls) for the rest of the year.” Hard to argue because she’s usually right.

Ha! I found an easier way. Want a laptop? Get here one too! Want that new desktop? Buy here one too! Of course, you can spring for diamonds. That will get you at least 3 get-out-of-jail-get-a-new-pc cards, and in the end, it’s cheaper than getting his and her computers. :-)
