I adore this one! It's juicy and full of life and open to wonder. But I'd watch out with that wishing you could read your husband's mind thing! Then there'd be no mystery, would there? And mystery keeps us interested. (There's also the danger, many male stand-up comics point out, that we'll find out it's something like zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.)
