she is the light of my life, the apple of my eye, my true love and my savior. because
christopher nolan is awesome and made a wildly popular
batman movie (in which he wisely employed my dear husband) and then sold a bizillion
dvds of said movie, i am now the proud owner of a spanking new
miele vacuum cleaner. after years of wrestling the accursed, sonorous and decidedly inferior hoover, i now glide around the apartment on a soft pink cloud of happiness while my german engineered appliance purrs beside me like a sleek sports car. i confess that i keep an ever-vigilant eye out for things to vacuum at home now.
this was my sweetie's surprise birthday gift to me. i know that there is a commonly held belief that women detest being given appliances as gifts. i am not one of those women. bring on the useful fine appliances and electronic gadgets, i say. they are prized above diamonds (or real sports cars) in my world.
so, thank you, thank you, kind sirs! now i really must go... those walls look rather dusty.
