I Miss My Wife!

My wonderful wife has been away in her native Budapest, partying her brains out at the Pepsi Island music festival, haning out with many friends, her twin brother, her mom, my dad (who moved back to Bp recently, oddly enough; a story for another time), and generally having lots of fun while I blog in solitude in insufferably hot Harlem. I miss her terribly. But that’s really good.

I shall share with you one secret of our happy marriage: we spend a lot of time apart from each other. Over the last seven years we’ve lived back in America, she’s spent perhaps an entire year’s worth of time back in Hungary all told, and I’ve done my share of two-three-week trips here and there myself in that time. Nothing makes you as happy to see your spouse as several weeks apart.

That’s just one of the secrets, but then if I let you in all of them, they wouldn’t be secrets anymore, would they?
