Welcome back guest blogger Camy Tang, whose second novel, Only Uni, released last month! In case you missed the story of how Camy and “Captain Caffeine” first met, check it out here. You can also visit with Camy (and many other great writers) over in Seekerville.
---------------------------
The Top Ten Ways I Know Captain Caffeine Truly Loves Me:
10) He washes most of the dishes, even when I’m the one who dirtied all of them.
9) He doesn’t complain about the fact the carpets haven’t been vacuumed in {ahem!} long and the toilet needs to be decontaminated.
8) Even when I inadvertently burn dinner, he still says it tastes good.
7) He flattens out the bottom of the toothpaste tube after I’ve squashed the middle together.
6) He doesn’t complain about changing the empty toilet paper roll when I was the last one on the can.
5) He bakes chocolate chip cookies for both of us.
4) He always buys pate-and-pork Vietnamese sandwiches for me (YUM!) when he goes to get his hair cut, since the shop is nearby.
3) He fills the car with gas for me when I’m too lazy to do it.
2) He always opens doors for me.
1) He married me! ME! What can he have been thinking???
Your turn! How do you know your hubby loves you?

Camy Tang is the loud Asian chick who writes loud Asian chick lit. She used to be a biologist, but now she is a staff worker for her church youth group and leads a worship team for Sunday service. She also runs the Story Sensei fiction critique service. On her blog, she gives away Christian novels every Monday and Thursday, and she ponders frivolous things like dumb dogs (namely, hers), coffee-geek husbands (no resemblance to her own...), the writing journey, Asiana, and anything else that comes to mind. Visit her website at http://www.camytang.com/ for a huge website contest going on right now, giving away five boxes of books and 25 copies of her latest release, Only Uni.
About the book: Flirty biologist Trish Sakai has alienated her best friends and her family because of her wild behavior with her artist ex-boyfriend, Kazuo. Then she finds her father kissing another woman, and her mom suffers a heart attack. Convinced God is punishing her for her sexual promiscuity, Trish comes up with three rules from First and Second Corinthians: 1) Stop looking at guys, 2) Only date Christians, and 3) Persevere in hardship by relying on God. If she follows them, God will restore her life to the way it was before her mistakes. If she can somehow regain her chastity, she won’t feel as dirty and unworthy as she does now. They’re only three rules. How hard can it be?
Handsome Spenser finds himself attracted to his coworker Trish, but his dinner invitation gets slammed down with a lame excuse about Corinthians and rules. That cools his ardor pretty quick. But then Spenser discover that his old enemy Kazuo needs Trish as the “muse” for his unfinished masterpiece painting due in a few months for a gallery show. Kazuo pursues Trish with everything he’s got, but Spenser decides to throw a wrench in Kazuo’s plans by pretending to pursue Trish himself.
Trish is going nuts trying to stand firm against two hunky guys. Her three simple rules aren’t so simple anymore . . .
Thanks for having me on your blog, Myra!

Fun post Myra and Camy!!
I know Keith loves me because he puts up with me ... an anal, high-maintenance, wired individual who gets on my own nerves!! The man is so calm and loving to me, he could be a walking ad for Valium. I love him to pieces!!
Happy Easter, guys!

I love the toothpaste tube one, Camy!! :)
I know my hubby loves me because even when I've just weighed myself and know I've gained 2 pounds, he says I look like I'm getting more toned, that I look slimmer. Ha! I guess love is blind. :)

You know, my husband really does love me.
He's just too stubborn to quit. Thank Heavens

Awww! Loved this, Camy!
I know Billy loves me because he lets me squeal to you at midnight my time while he's trying to sleep...and his head only turns completely around once!
Heeee!
Oh...and he buys me Pecan Spinwheels....

What an awesome list, Camy! I know my husband loves me because he'll get up first to get the kids breakfast so I can bury my head under the covers for a few more precious minutes. And he hasn't rented a dumpster in which to toss the mountains of junk that I've accumulated (with purposes in mind for all them, really). And he puts up with my TBR--it's huge! And yes, he married me! I'd better go tell him that I love HIM! ;)
Thanks for the fun, Myra!
