Re: having a life?

If I may add a couple of suggestions to Elgin's excellent advise:

D. Whether or not your significant other understands FIRST, your relationship will wither if you don't find a way to connect regularly. Let them know you're thinking of them every day - text, call, or touch - and get a card, flowers or trinket for them regularly.

E. Set a Date Night and don't miss it. You'll probably be a more productive member of your team if you get away from it once a week anyway!

Re: having a life?

I got married on January 5th, at 6:00 pm, had a nice little reception at our house, and then was at school to shepherd my minions... er... students to kickoff at 7:15am the next morning!

That's how you keep your significant other during the build season!

In this case, put 'LOTS of' in front of Pete's - cards, flowers, trinkets - advice.

And, to add, don't be grumpy. No one is allowed to be grumpy during build. Did you know that?
