I'm smiling as I read through Marcus' blog, particularly when he writes about Helen. Those guys are a great couple.

They come up with some frequency in conversations between Adam and I. To wit, an exchange during last week's heat wave. Adam banged into the cottage, ripped off his clothes, and flopped down on the couch.

ME: Do you think Marcus lies around like that?
HIM: Do you think Helen wears the same shirt two days in a row?

The conversation got a laugh at book group later that day.
