Monday Random: compromise

• I make my husband happy when I don’t talk during the news even if something makes me want to monologue
• He makes me happy when he watches one of my old movies and doesn’t complain about the sound or the lame sets
• I go to every Star Trek movie, sometimes on opening night
• At some point he stopped saying things about my family that were sore spots
• He went to the church I picked
• I make pizza ten times more often than I’d ever eat it, and I learned how to make pizza crust like a New Yorker
• I learned how to make cheesecake like a New Yorker though I could go the rest of my life without eating it
• He’d rather the mayo not touch the cheese on a sandwich, and I respect that
• He reads all my manuscripts and gives honest feedback
• I’ve been going through menopause for ten years. Not done yet.
• I know, TMI. But I’ll never lie to you.
