Any funny things your spouses call your obsession / hobby / career?

Well, my wife doesn't have a particular name for myself, my hobby or my freinds, but I beleive Jim Beckers wife calls us "woodies".

:rolleyes: You know-Scottie-Mr Montgomery Scott,Chief engineer on the USS Enterprise. Any time estimate he gave for fixing something was always divisable by 2. My wife always says "when are you going to finish my table? My answer is when you give money so I can get the new( insert tool or gadget name here) that I need.

Not here...Marri Ott fills that need. :D

Professor Dr. SWMBO doesn't have a label for my woodworking avocation. It's just "the shop". And yes, most of what I make is/will be enjoyed by her...

What was good today was that Older-Jr-SWMBO (age 12) was expressing her appreciation of all the furniture and cabinetry I've been making for what she calls "the new rooms" (our addition). She's finally beginning to get a mental handle on what comes from the time I spend in the shop.
