Anyway, when Himself changed his role to being my PA, I knew how important it was to preserve his dignity. So shortly into our new arrangement a concerned friend took me aside and suggested that next time I wanted Himself to bring me something to eat, perhaps I shouldn't pound the bedroom floor with a thick stick and yell down the stairs, "Oi! More chocolates up here. On the double!"

But I can't stop other things. Like the fact that Himself gets called Mr. Keyes. (It 's not his name. That 's my Dad.) In fact, some people can't even get his first name right: in the last few months Himself (aka Tony) has been John, Tom and Joe. Even his profession is misrepresented: in one magazine article he was described as a psychiatrist (which he may be, having to deal with me on a daily basis, but not in a professional capacity), and in another he was a dentist. And the thing is, he doesn't stomp around in a big, mad, hairy rage, shrieking at me to write to the editor, demanding a retraction. He doesn't care because he knows who he is. (I'm making him sound like a saint here and definitely running the risk of being hit with The Curse of the Smug Girl. Now it 's almost certain that in two weeks' time he 'll be caught down some dark alley getting a hand job from a transsexual.)
