I shall break the silence to comment on this one…………..
Jealous? Nah, that would be entirely ridiculous, Elves are make believe, and as far as some female obsessions are concerned, you could faint and scream every time one of those boy band idiots comes on TV, so I am not complaining about some fictional characters from a book. (At least it’s original) Although I do question the taste factor in the elf obsession sometimes because, from what I’ve seen, I agree with your friend’s husband in that most of them look like they belong in a hair band from the 80’s, case in point:
Hehehehehehehe...But if that’s what floats your boat, that’s what floats your boat….who am I to deny the inner Poison and Def Leppard fan. (Just Kidding). Plus it’s like you said, while you are reading, writing, and doing arithmetic about elves, I get to watch/play all of the hockey I want without my wife bugging me to clean the toothpaste out of the sink or any of the other crazy litany of things that wives ask (I love you babe J.)
However, there is a warning here, unless you want me to start putting posters of Patrick Roy, the Calgary Flames Stanley Cup team, the Joe Juneau poster, and any of my other various hockey/football paraphernalia items all over the apartment, there shall be no pictures of elves all over the place in the house.
