    3. "We've been using the lockdown as a trial run for moving in together. Well, I already knew he walks around naked, but he really likes walking around naked. Like, really likes it."

    6. "I learned that my husband doesn't shut any lights off because he is never 'done in there.'"

    7. "I didn't get the 'let's circle back to that' husband. Nope — my husband literally circles! When he's on a call in which he really needs to think, he gets up and paces around, around, and around the coffee table!"

    "I now know why he’s never encouraged me to buy a couch for that empty corner of his office — he uses that space to pace in circles!"

    10. "He sighs. He sighs all the time — not for a particular reason, just to let more air out of his lungs than usual. And every day by 2 p.m. he puts his head in his hands in despair."

    11. "Apparently, my husband, who was born in 1978, believes that he will be 43 — not 42 — on his birthday next month. I had to subtract it out for him ON PAPER before he would stop arguing with me about it!"
