That's the exact same setup my wife and I have. She completely tolerates my
hobby, buys me Lego to surprise me, helps me sort occasionally, and every once
in a blue moon actually puts brick together. But otherwise, I have my hobbies
and she has hers, and they don't frequently mix. She has, however, helped me a
lot on the scripts for my comic strip! She's also allowed us to do the pending
kid's nursery in a Lego theme, which is really turning out great.
