我和吉姆结婚时,他还在大学里读书,晚上常和一些朋友出去聚聚。自从我们的长子出生后,吉姆和我晚上就很少出门了。吉姆最好的朋友雷每周六晚上都要来我家下棋。我刚开始并不太喜欢这个家伙。他是个大嗓门,有点粗鲁,还特别固执。每次聚会都由我来做三明治和薯片,雷负责带啤酒。有这两个家伙看着孩子,我就可以爬到床上,享受一本好书和一杯牛奶所带来的惬意了。 When I got married to Jim, he was still studying in college and often went out with some friends at night. Since the birth of our eldest son, Jim and I rarely go out at night. Jim’s best friend, Ray, comes to my house to play chess every Saturday night. I did not really like this guy at the beginning. He is a big voice, a little rude, but also particularly stubborn. Sandwich and potato chips are made by me at each party, and Ray is responsible for bringing beer. With these two guys looking at the kids, I could climb to bed and enjoy the comforts of a good book and a glass of milk.
