Fab things about Rob

[ailbhe]

He gets tired about 10pm, even at conventions. So who stays up until 1:30, 2:30, 3:00? the one breastfeeding the newborn, that's who. I have now breastfed while ordering drinks at a bar, folks. At the actual bar, not sitting on a chair in the lounge. It did mean I couldn't stand on the footrest to get to a reasonable height, which I would usually do since the bar comes up to my collarbone, but...

He is infinitely patient with miserable babies. I didn't need that skill this weekend (Thursday-Tuesday is a weekend, right?) but it's fab nonetheless.

The children adore him. And he them.

My only complaint (!!!) is that he spent the weekend prioritising my enjoyment so I suspect he claimed not to want to do stuff when he actually did, but we had a mini-argument about that shortly before the end so we might have fixed it, I'm not sure. I was really, really tired by then.

Do you hire him out?

[ailbhe]

I'll ask. Travel expenses too?

Anything! Although she seems to have finally gone to sleep, after two hours of shouting miserably about how tired she is.

He sounds like a lovely spouse and you sound as if you know how fortunate you are to have each other.

It took me a little while to fathom this post because I couldn't figure out that you staying up until 3am was a good thing.

He was lovely. Is lovely. It's all, basically, lovely.

Also, I got a hug! To which, like, wow.

We were AT A CON!

In 2008 I had a toddler, so I stayed up all night DANCING, but that wasn't plausible with a newborn.
