Yeah, so you were I 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:33.480 think I think you got divorced soon after that, and 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:35.199 then you met your husband. 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:38.120 Soon after that. My like the real life one. The 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.840 first one was like a trial run. And then number 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.240 two I met him when my son was three, and 0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:46.079 so he's been in our life since then, which is awesome. 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:47.480 Nine years crazy. 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.280 I think that's crazy that you have a baby with 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.920 someone and then you've become a unexpectedly become a single mother. 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.920 That was a little bit of a surprise. You know, 0:08:57.120 --> 0:08:59.800 life is you can never plan it, as we all know. 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.640 I'll try to do it, but it just it was 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:05.520 one of those things. And we're good now, like he's 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:08.199 in our life and it's and we're friends and all that, 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.440 but it was just when you have kids, you just 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:14.719 never know what that's going to be like, what it's 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:17.040 going to feel like. I know that so many people 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.640 have so many different reactions. Some people are like in 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:21.960 the movies where like everything's grand and beautiful, but for 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:25.800 the most part, it's fucking shocking. And you go through 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:30.160 a real emotional rollercoaster bringing a human being home and 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:32.920 you have to take care of it. So I think 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.400 for both of us it was just we We just 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.839 didn't prepare properly, and I think it really affected our relationship. 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.040 But who does prepare properly? 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:42.760 Like, I mean, it's not like so many people are 0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:46.120 taking parenting classes before they have a baby, you know, 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:48.560 I know, And nine months is not enough time to 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:50.360 prepare for that kind of invasion. 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:53.440 No, And I wasn't even we weren't even preparing. I mean, 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:56.000 I was just living life the way it normally was. 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.560 And then a baby was born. Oh my god, geez, 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.000 this is I got to keep this thing alive and 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:04.720 try to keep my relationship sexy. I don't know how 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:06.920 do you do that. I haven't no idea, I haven't. 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:10.520 I failed at it. But number two is a good 0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:13.120 is good. And we decided not to have another kid 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.800 together because I was like, you know, let's just keep 0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:18.360 it sexy, and we've got a kid already and like, 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.040 let's have fun. And when he gets old, he's twelve. 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:22.480 Now you know, a few more years and he's out 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.680 of the house and we're going to travel the world 0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:28.040 and we're still going to keep it sexy. So I know, 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:30.280 you know a little something about that. Because you decided 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:33.240 not to have children, you just kept spontaneous, spontaneity part 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:34.880 of your life, which is so much fun and I 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:36.840 miss it, do you. 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.680 Your sister introduced you to your husband, right, Yeah, she 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:40.680 did good memory. 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:44.760 She is now married to the guy who she's married 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.839 to your husband too. She's yeah, we live a polygamous life. 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:52.040 It's very cool, you know, a little sestuous. But her 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:54.320 husband is also a brit and so my husband and 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:56.880 her husband were at drama school together, so he would 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.800 come out for like pilot season why when there was 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.480 isolot season when that existed, And so I met him 0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:04.720 a couple of times, and then we ended up sitting 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:07.320 at Hamburger Mary's beside each other for a dry queen 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.840 bingo night, and that's where we fell in love, as 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:11.960 you do, because we sat beside each other and I 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:14.439 just realized at that time, like I'd met him a 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.439 few times, but I was finally ready, I guess, and 0:11:16.920 --> 0:11:19.640 he was just so you know that British charm and wit, 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.360 and he was funny and kind of cute, and so, 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:23.920 I mean, I still didn't think we were going to 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:25.760 get married. I just thought we'd have a fun little 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.600 affair because he's seven years younger than me. Oh oh, 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.439 I love that. Yeah, it's great. And the nice thing 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:34.760 about younger men is that they adore you. He's like, wow, 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:36.880 you're my woman, and it feels you feel like a 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.840 woman around a younger man. I love it. I'm enjoying 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:40.520 this experience. 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:43.160 Yeah, I could see that I've ever dated for somebody 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.200 that was so much younger than me, more than like 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.319 a year or so. So I don't know, but I'm 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:49.719 assuming I'm going to get around to it because I'm 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:51.640 not getting any younger. Like I'm sure I'm going to 0:11:51.679 --> 0:11:52.160 start dating. 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:53.720 I'll introduce you to a few young boys. 0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:56.480 Yeah, I mean, I'd like a little couple of flings, 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.840 especially with you know, the energy, sexual energy that younger men. 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:02.839 I'm more interested in math than having to deal with 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:05.360 you know, men my own age and their own issues. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.520 Not not naming any names you dm me when I 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:11.640 was in Sweden or you were texting me or some 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.199 one of those things, because that's where you're you're from. 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.880 You're from Sweden, I am, but I originally I was 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:20.400 reading your bio and you also have permanent residency status 0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:22.080 in Canada, So. 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.120 I did that one. I had to give up when 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.559 I moved out here. I had a permanent because I 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:28.840 was there for twenty two years. And when we first 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:31.600 moved to Canada, Sweden wouldn't allow dual citizenship. And then 0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:33.480 when it was finally time for me to move America 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.440 to America, then I could get dual citizenship. But I 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:37.840 was going to America. So it's like, you know what, 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:40.600 I don't need a Canadian passport. I've got my Swedish passport. 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:42.559 Now I wish I had would have done it, But. 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:44.160 Because I was about to ask you, I'm like, wait, 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:45.640 I have a house in Canada and I don't have 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.840 permanent residence. Yeah I do in Whistler. I go. I 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:51.959 love your first ice ski in the wintertime, and I 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:55.120 love I love Canadians. You know, they're so civilized, Yeah, 0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:59.199 so nice, so normal. It's a nice contrast to what 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.800 we deal with it. But a little bit yeah, yeah, 0:13:01.840 --> 0:13:04.120 I was curious about learning. I mean, every all my 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:08.200 conversations lately are basically about how to naturalize another place. 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:11.760 How are you going to get to become a permanent 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:14.760 resident of another place? Back to Sweden. I have like 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.000 a few Swedish people in my life. And when I 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:20.559 was in Stockholm for my most recent I just came 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:23.120 from Europe. I was on this European tour. It looked amazing, 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:26.480 Thank you, It was amazing, and Stockholm was such a highlight. 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:30.040 It was so gorgeous out. We walked probably like fifteen 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:32.720 thousand steps that day. We walked and walked and walked 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.320 and walked, and it was like one of the first 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.439 days of you know what felt like summer. You know, 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:39.880 it was in May, but it felt like the first 0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:42.280 and the whole place was pumping. And this was like 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.680 how it was when we kept like hopping through Europe. 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.839 We'd land and like the sun would be out and 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.679 we'd be in Copenhagen or Amsterdam or but Stockholm was 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.320 such a highlight. And I have a really good girlfriend 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:55.480 who lives in Whistler who is Swedish. And then I 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:57.480 have another friend that I spent like my twenties with 0:13:57.600 --> 0:14:00.360 that was Swedish. And I have to say, Swedish women 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:05.840 are so much fucking fun. And I feel like Swedish 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:08.840 culture tell me if this is true, Like women don't 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:13.439 care about marriage in the same way that American women 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:14.480 care about marriage. 0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.120 No, not at all. The whole thing of Like, I 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.240 don't know, there's that really weird thing where it's like 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.960 you have to spend half your yearly salary for the rank, 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:24.440 Like there's all these rules around things. Swedish women are 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:25.920 kind of like take it early. I think it's like 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:29.040 the Viking mentality we grew up on versus you know. 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:32.440 I guess America was built on, you know, religion, and 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:35.560 so it's a very separate It feels very logical in Sweden. 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.120 And I also feel like the women there, for whatever reason, 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:40.800 I don't know why or the history of it, but 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:44.920 the women in Sweden are the aggressors and they're very independent. 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:48.600 It feels very like it always feels like women have 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:50.600 always been an equal over there, and so you just 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:54.200 feel empowered, which is really interesting. And I don't know 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:57.520 the reason why, but I do feel like women are 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:01.240 just strong and takeway they want kind of thing, and 0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:03.720 I love that about it, you know, and men tend 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:05.440 to follow suit and stand in line. 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:08.640 Yeah, I wonder if it does have something to do 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:10.080 with the Vikings. I'm gonna have to read a book 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:10.400 about that. 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:12.800 I know, go to I should know my own culture 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:14.320 really and I wonder if. 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.080 It's all scale, like if it's all that area in 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:20.160 Scandinavian cultures too, where women, I mean obviously they're like 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:23.040 government wise and happy wise, like everybody seems a lot 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:25.960 happier in that part of the world, Scandinavia in general. 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:28.680 And when also when you get like a year mattornity 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.120 leave six months paternity like everything is it works like 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:36.320 everything You pay really high taxes in Stockholm, but they 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:39.000 go towards the things that you want them to go towards, 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.760 Like you can go to university for free in Sweden 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:45.000 and get a really brilliant education, you know, and that's 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:47.480 where our tax money goes to, which I would love 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:50.280 to see here, you know. Having a kid here, I'm like, wow, 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.640 it's expensive because he can't go to all the public schools. 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:55.360 We were lucky to put him in a charter school 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.160 for the first few years of his life, but now 0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:00.680 we just switched him over and we're like, wow, it's crazy. 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:03.240 It's crazy that we have to pay for kindergarten. Well, 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.480 I don't have to for anything, but it's crazy that 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:07.880 parents have to pay for fucking kindergarten. I mean, I 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:11.040 live in a city that is absolutely ridiculous. Watching that 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:15.000 back race and watching people apply to kindergartens and preschools 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:17.160 is like, Honestly, when I. 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.160 Was pregnant, I had a friend of mine, a friend 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:22.720 of mine's mother, who was like, okay, listen, we need 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:24.640 a meeting. And I was like okay, and she comes 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:26.600
