Date Night

Last week, Xander took me out to dinner at a rather fancyish restaurant. We had a delicious meal, wine, profiteroles. We come home, climb into bed, and I'm just about to lay my head on his shoulder when he jumps up and shouts, "I just proved a theorem!" Then he sprints back into his office.

Really, being married to a research mathematician is every bit as romantic as you think it is.

In the run-up to comps, when Michael was working on his dissertation proposal, he was always grabbing bits of paper and scrawling stuff on them. I know exactly what you're talking about here.

Dude, it's cool. Sometimes I wonder how much of the conversation Jonathan and I are having with him he is even processing.

Impressive, none the less.
