01.05.07 domesticity

The Scotsmontonian Jonathan permanently settled in Montreal on Saturday, ending our routine of red-eye Edmonton weekends, webcam conversations and calling cards. So far, he’s found out the wonders of Jeopardy!, Comet is getting daytime walks, we’re painting our now-joint office in pop-art fluorescent green and turquoise, and our biggest argument has been about what key to play a Belle and Sebastian song in. Oh, and I’m to discontinue my practice of reading in bed, because “God, that’s so domestic”.

I hope he doesn’t clue in too soon that tidying the house, picking up the groceries and making dinner while I work might possibly be construed as “domestic” by some. Domestic or no, it’s really good to be à deux.

    Reading in bed is absolute bliss. Win him over. You have to.

    It’s a good thing it’s college week on Jeopardy. Don’t want to overwhelm the young fella.

    What instruments do you both play. While I’m a classically trained pianist, I’ve recently taken up the Turkey Baster (stay tuned for a youtube short of the ensuing tomfoolery.)

    I meant “What instruments do you both play?” *looks around nervously*
