Newlyweds, The Day After
For ChikaTuesday, what gross, weird, ugly, or even unnatural things did you discover about your husband after you started living together under the same roof?
My husband hardly reads my blogs so I hope he will not make an exception for this particular entry, haha! Here goes…
The snoring. Aarrgh! But surprisingly, I think I’m the only person in the known world who can sleep through this phenomenon. In fact, I really can’t have a good night’s sleep without my nightly lullaby. It actually comforts me in a way nothing does.
He does the number two every morning without fail. And if, by some freak event he doesn’t get to do his thing, for sure his whole day is flushed down the toilet, hehe!
As opposed to me, hubby can be pretty OC about sticking to a schedule, working on a plan of action, keeping our home clutter-free and organized, and wanting to know each and every little thing that happens in our life. If something goes awry, or if he feels he is left in the dark, he easily gets panicky, phobic, or frustrated – which is pretty easy to be when living with little ole me, haha!
But, he does cook like a pro. I am so happy that I snagged a guy who is unnaturally good in the kitchen. Everything I learned about cooking adobo and sinigang, I learned from the master. Not a lot of wives can lay claim to something like that, so I definitely know a blessing when I see one.
Finally, and in order not to unneccesarily strain our marriage any further with my erstwhile confessions (haha!), he’s surprisingly a very hands-on dad. Just like the cooking thing, I really don’t know how I could have survived without his direct involvement in the household and in raising our daughter. For a guy with a seemingly tough exterior, he really is a highly responsible and adept softie inside – thus, effectively canceling out every gross or weird idiosyncracy that currently exists (or may eventually manifest) about him. :)
