My wife loves me!
Would you like to know how I know this? She showed me that she loves me by calling up Barnes and Noble to see if they had a D&D book that I wanted. You are probably saying to yourself that this really isn’t a big deal, it’s just a book. I would agree with you, but she makes a point of telling everyone that I am very lucky to be married, a point which I do not dispute, because I play, as she puts it, dork games.
If calling and seeing if they had the book was not enough to prove her love for me, she actually went and purchased it! Again you are probably thinking this isn’t a big deal, but apparently the booksellers at Barnes and Noble, which she used to be, look down upon and criticize the people that buy dork books. For her to brave the scrutiny of her peers was most definitely a testament of her love. Whether this was for me or her secret love of D&D, I do not know;-)

grumble.
1. Booksellers do not look down on people buying D&D books. D&D books are dorky and I’m not a dork. It’s just like when young boys go to buy condoms. It’s embarrassing.
2. The only reason I got frustrated calling B&N for the book was because you had spend the whole day driving all over the freaking south bay looking for it, when you KNEW B&N had it in stock and close to the house.
3. I don’t make it a point to tell people you play D&D. But when people ask what you are doing on Sundays I tell them, BECAUSE I’M NOT SUPPOSED TO LIE.
4. You give me a headache.

I haven’t played D&D for years, but I still have my Players Handbook, DM Guide and Monster Manual from the 80s!
Maybe I can join you in a campaign one of these days…

I warn you if you do you will have to endure Regan’s constant ridiculing.

Hey Jason, long time no see. You are very lucky to find a woman who puts up with the D&D thing. I’ve tried convincing women that elven mages make the best lovers, but no luck so far.
