BTW, if you like the end result, why complain about the amount of time it takes?

It really shouldn't matter in the final analysis. If you are in love with someone, they should still be lovely to you even if she, say, has been down with the flu for a week, wearing an old bathrobe with her hair in curlers. ;)

Ivan, curlers and the flu are mutually exclusive. But I get your point. That doesn't stop the complaints.

I will pass on the flu, and my wife never uses curlers, but actually, I find the bathrobe her most attractive ensemble.
