Ben and I have been listening to Wayne Shorter this weekend. He is such a fabulous musician! Honestly, when I met Ben he introduced me to music that I had never listened to before. I always thought that if we were to get married, we would be rich in terms of our fusing musical collections and love ..... And both have turned out to true! :) That being said, having been nothing but musicians/students since we met, it has been good that we have had our music and our love for the past blissful almost-year of marriage! God is the great provider and we have never been in need of anything regardless of our circumstances. But as with other friends pursuing a career with their art, there is always the fun sport of taking on the "starving artist" persona, which we do for fun on occasion. That desperate, gold-digging, headstrong personality came over me with so much irony while we were listening to Mr. Shorter today and I just had to share:
"You know I really married you because I wanted all your music (Ben snorted). Yup, I married you for you music and your money."
Ben immediately replied, "Well that was a stupid idea." =)
That is so dang cute! Glad you're doing well and I enjoy reading your blog! :)
