This morning, Mrs. Cornell asks, &#8220;Did you have fun playing Guitar Hero III last night?&#8221; To which I responded, &#8220;I didn&#8217;t play Guitar Hero III last night,&#8221; which was true. &#8220;Then what were you doing?&#8221; she asked. &#8220;Blogging,&#8221; I said, which was also true.<\/p>\n<p>But not the whole truth. (I had hoped to sneak the whole <em>Space:1999<\/em> thing past her without incident.)<\/p>\n<p>Then, today, as I&#8217;m driving from Salt Lake City to Logan, she calls me on my cell phone and says, &#8220;Hey! Guess what! I read your blog!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Busted.<\/p>\n<p>My wife doesn&#8217;t usually read blogs unless I make her. But she wanted to see what I could have possibly written that kept me up so late. It&#8217;s a pity she won&#8217;t read this, because then she won&#8217;t see what I&#8217;m about to write &#8211; about how she&#8217;s so remarkably beautiful, and every day with her as more glorious than the day before. Ah, well. If only she knew how I worship the very ground she walks on.<\/p>\n<p>(Smooth, no?)<\/p>\n<p>Another debate tonight &#8211; didn&#8217;t see it, but word is that Fred eviscerated Huckabee and came off triumphant. Nobody noting much about Romney and McCain, though, which is too bad. Romney needs to shine, and\/or McCain needs to stumble. I have no predictions going forward. I just know whatever happens will probably be bad.<\/p>\n<p>The best news of the night is that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailykos.com\/storyonly\/2008\/1\/10\/2713\/87225\/55\/434206\">Daily Kos, the ultimate left wing blog, is recruiting Democrats to cross parties in Michigan and vote for Romney to keep him in the race. <\/a>Pathetic. And I&#8217;m OK with it. That&#8217;s even more pathetic.<\/p>\n<p>One person who&#8217;s definitely not pathetic is my wife. She&#8217;s such an amazing person &#8211; beauty, brains, the whole enchilada. Gosh, I&#8217;m lucky to have married her.<\/p>\n<p>She has to stay married to me, anyway. I&#8217;m the only one who can get the printer to work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Solast night, I stay up finishing the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stallioncornell.com\/2008\/01\/space1999.html\"><em>Space:1999<\/em> DVD <\/a>down in the basement, and I get to bed some time between 11:30 and midnight.
