May 13

When we're too tired from our long hours at work to cook, and we're sick of take-out.

Mrs. Aristus is retiring next year. We're both looking forward to her being able to cook nice hot meals for us. With me still working another eight or nine years, we'll just be two staunch liberal Democratic atheists living a right-wing wet dream of man-work, woman-cook.
