THE POWER- COUPLE

As you might have noticed before in my blog, when Debs invites to dinner you don't say no- you get there as fast as you can because it's bound to be good. Me and Alex had quite the fabulous evening together with her and her Man Charles. They're what I like to call a power- couple: smart and hot at the same time. It's like these Lindt chocolates; you know the ones in the red packet with the round pieces of two types of chocolate that sort of melt together perfectly? That's Deborah and Charles. The red Lindt- chocolate. The lawyer and the engineer. (Soon LLM and PhD student.) I mean you can see for yourselves in the pictures below.

I offered to help, but Alex laughed and Debs looked at me with fear so I sort of took that as a no... Hehehe.

I asked if I could move in temporarily so that Debs always could cook for me. She said that they have an extra mattress that I could use. Charles didn't look too impressed by the prospect of me literally eating them out of the house.

We started discussing the whole women and expensive handbags/ shoes idea. I don't know if you people agree with me here but I think that it's quite funny that so many guys seem not to understand it. I mean sure, now we all (both women and men) want nice cars, watches etc and it doesn't necessarily differ so much what we buy. But before, when it tended to be mostly men who were the "breadwinners" and earned the money, no one questioned them when they bought their expensive cars or whatever it might be. But suddenly, when women want to buy designer handbags and shoes that's seen as unnecessary and outrageous. Can't you see that it's the equivalent of the men's cars years ago? What's really so different about it? I don't really think usage can be an argument, since obviously you use a handbag and it "works" better if it's in better material and lasts longer. And do men who buy expensive suits really get as questioned as women who buy an expensive handbag? Anyway, just a thought...
