She and He Might Not Much Longer Be

She had an education in something we are not sure what. Her persnickety ways are like a punch in her husband’s gut. She seems okay to me, plain, and rather unassuming. But according to many, she is angry, and usually fuming. Her husband is a kind man, everyone says a great guy. Where did he find her? And to marry her, oh, why? We discovered that her degree is in psychology. Weird since the rumor said anthropology. She is not long for these hills if you ask me. For she has no real ties or history. And her husband is a reputed philanderer. How much more humility can she truly endure?

Interesting twist here, Caren. How does a woman handle her husband being a philanderer? Hmmm...I surely don't know.
