You might be a medspouse if...

[Michele]

Someone calls your cell phone and asks for Dr LastName and you immediately wonder how in the heck they got your number and how dare they call you....then slowly realize *you* are also Dr LastName and just-this-once it was actually about you.

Michele- that's hilarious.

I once interrupted DrK when he was talking in his sleep. I asked him to repeat himself, thinking he was talking to me. Still asleep, he irritably told me that he "was speaking to the attending physician."

Oh my! My DH has done this to me also!!

You consistently have the longest grass on the block bec. DH has to be home before dark to actually mow it. You've taken over every other household chore, but the grass is your absolute last holdout and you will not give in.

Ditto...except DH then insisted we hire somebody to do this since he says he will NEVER have time to mow. So far though, I have to say, he has been right about that!

Therefore...

If you do EVERY household chore, except for one, for free and DH pays somebody to his ONE chore!

No one believes that you have a spouse. You moved here alone, apparently. Clearly, you must be a single mother *OR* in witness protection.
Suuuuuuuure you have a husband...

When he says, "we'll handle it ourselves," it means that you handle it yourself.

I LOVE this.
I tell people all the time that I run the show, and if they need or want something, they have to talk to me.

I refer to myself as the cruise director.

My "might be a medspouse" relates to TV.

When he's home, the TV runs crap about aliens attacking (not movies, Discovery channel stuff about what will happen), Saskwatch, and mating termites.

THIS. Actually, I think this would apply to our relationship even if DH wasn't a dawkter. The man can't make simple, direct phone calls to handle issues to save his life.

Yup. This too.

True and truer DH stayed up all night once watching a 7-part PBS special on Auschwitz...

- people assume that you have learned by osmosis and ask you for medical opinions when your DH is not around.

haha!

This is fantastic... I keep telling DH that I'm going to try to get a PhD in ANYTHING before he finishes med school so we won't be Dr & Mrs ... ahhaha he jokes and says I'll be a lady who lunches in no time.. RIGHT
