The Catch-All Brag About Your Significant Other thread

Post by Dr. Medulla »

Which is my way of wanting to brag about the missuz' book. Her publisher's catalogue just came out and she's on page one. It's a smart and readable book (and one that I probably won't want to read again for a long time; all told, I've probably gone thru, at minimum, ten drafts of each chapter). I hope I'm not just being a biased spouse here, but I think it'll be a significant work in Native/Indian/Metis studies for many years.

Congrats to her.

She is also a charming person and a fine conversationalist.

I think I've mentioned this before, but this woman:

Very cool, Doc + Gutterwolt.

I've got very exciting news about my SO as well -- Mr. Tiddly-Binks was recently voted Grand Master of his Teddy Lodge!

Wow! Congrats to Medulla's wife! That's quite an accomplishment :)

And also congrats to Wolter's fiancee for getting to be in a horror movie, that is pretty awesome. :cool:

You really go for those "classic" looking women don't you?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I want a divorce from my ball-and-chain. She monopolizes my life. . .

That could be a perversely ideal opportunity for wedding announcement photos …

The girl and I about a month ago:

She works as a lead teacher at a day program for autistic and mentally retarded adults. She has the patience of a saint with those folks. I could not take day after day of dealing with other people's piss, shit, and tempers.

She also does the singer/songwriter thing. Ukulele and singing. A lot of songs about Coney Island, Creature From the Black Lagoon, and other awesome shit.

I would be a complete pile of garbage without her.

I know the feeling.

Epic sideburns, by the way. I approve.
