The Best Husband Ever

In bed before sleep

I: Honey, you are the best husband I have in my life.
He: You only have one.

The Look 2

In the car on the way back to Berne from Zurich after visiting one of his good friends.

I: She must be really smart.
He: She is. How could you tell?
I: Well she was sent to NYC in mid 1960s as a journalist. No school would send a lousy student abroad as a school journalist.
He: What school journalist?
I: It was in 1960s, so she must be at school, right?
He: She was a professional journalist!!!
I: Eh…? But she’s only a bit older than you are, no?
He: Almost 20 year older actually (giggled).
I: Eh…?????

The Look 1

My former classmate told me that she would come to Geneva with someone I knew for a conference. The two of us went to Geneva to meet them, two gorgeous women.

He: So you two were E’s classmates? Lovely to meet you ladies.
We the women couldn’t stop laughing.
I: She’s my professor, not my classmate. Trang was my classmate.
He: Oooops….

On the way back to Berne in the car.

He: Was she really your professor?
I: Yup. He: How old is she?
I: Either late 50ish or early 60ish. Why?
He: Really???? What did she teach?
I: Yup. Theories of sexualities, and yes she is a feminist, both scholar and activist. He: Eh…???

He: Lulu....kommt zum Papi, Schatz (in annoying babyish talk)
I: Don't talk to her like that. She is a cat, not a baby!!!

I: Arrrrrgggghhhh.......

A True Love

In bed before sleep

He: I must really love you.
I: Eh...? Why?
He: I could stand your fart. Du stinkst!!!

A Talented Cook

In the kitchen after he came home from a meeting and I was cleaning a pan

He: Sayang, you are a damned good cook. Tell me, how did you manage to burn pans perfectly well? This one is totally burnt.
I: I guess I'm simply talented for this one.
