Here's one for Smuradelica (I hope he's paying attention) - A JONI MENTION in a book called "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger. Thanks to Mags for recommending this book. - ---------------------------------------------------- "Clare: And so we are married. At first we live in a two-bedroom apartment in a two-flat in Ravenswood. It's sunny, with butter-colored hardwood floors and a kitchen full of antique cabinets and antiquated appliances. We buy things, spend Sunday afternoons in Crate & Barrel exchanging wedding presents, order a sofa that can't fit through the doors of the apartment and has to be sent back. The apartment is a laboratory in which we conduct experiments, perform research on each other. We discover that Henry hates it when I absentmindedly click my spoon against my teeth while reading the paper at breakfast. We agree that it is okay for me to listen to Joni Mitchell and it is okay for Henry to listen to the Shags as long as the other person isn't around. We figure out that Henry should do all the cooking and I should be in charge of laundry and neither of us is willing to vacuum so we hire a cleaning service." - ---------------------------------------------------- Niffenegger, Audrey: The Time Traveler's Wife; Alfred A.
