  • Ask My Wife Karen Anything……… The Answers

    February 23rd, 2008 by Jeremy Enke

    Karen EnkeFinally my lovely wife was able to step away from her daily chores such as cooking and cleaning to answer these questions. These were all answered by her and not influenced by me at all. Thanks karen, I’ll put you in for a raise at your annual wife review.

    I wanted to Thank you Jeremy for giving me this opportunity to communicate with some of your friends. That was a pretty brave thing for you to do! I had fun answering the questions, in fact I may want to set up my own blog page (just kidding)! <———Did she just call it a “blog page”……she did. Honey, on the internet we just call them blogs!

    I look forward to meeting all of you in the future!

    Karen

    1. Hi Karen, I am curious how you have dealt with the long hours of Jeremy being in this business. I know how my own husband feels, and I keep thinking once I get beyond the early stages it will become a little less hectic and more on track. How do you handle this? Next question would be are you involved in the business at all?

    There have been times that I have been frustrated with his long hours, but I try to remember that lots of people work long hours. In some ways it’s nice that Jeremy works from home because he’s physically around but I think he actually works more because his computer is always around and sometimes he has a hard time shutting it. I try to remember the perks of the industry and the flexibility it offers. I am not involved in the business.


    2. Has the Enkey[Jeremy] ever walked into the bedroom wearing his Sweatsedo suit with his pimp chalice while making it rain & say;hey baby you ready to get it on with a baller?

    He’s never brought the pimp chalice into bed. Wouldn’t want to spill on the sheets.

    3. Is Jeremy nuts?

    Yes.

    4. What do you do on Sundays?

    During winter, watch football and hang out with the neighbors
    During summer, play croquet, spend as much time outside as possible, and hang out with the neighbors

    We also spend time with the kids and do lots of family things together.

    5. What did you think of Jeremy wanting to wear a Pink Bunny suit to the WSOP on national TV?

    Nothing surprises me with Jeremy! I thought it would be hilarious.

    6. How do you feel about Jeremy’s admiration of Asian prostitutes?

    I always find that very interesting since he likes blonde hair blue eyed girls. Maybe he likes Asian prostitutes because they can’t speak English and talk back to him.

    7. Do you play poker? If yes, who is better: You or Jeremy?

    No, can’t afford to since my husband does. (j/k) I know how to and have on occasion played for fun. I’m not very good though. I’ll stick with Yahtzee.

    8. Will you allow Jeremy to bring the children to any future CAP events?

    Yeah, I think if the location is a kid friendly environment like the Atlantis again we’d bring the kids.

    9. Enquiring minds want to know, why do you only make 3 cups of coffee every morning when we have a 12 cup coffee maker?

    Jeremy, I never know when you’ll be up in the morning and I want you to have freshly brewed coffee, you deserve the best!

    10. How often does he actually wear the sweatsedo?

    At least once a week. I always have to have it washed and pressed when he is going to be traveling overseas, he likes to wear it on the plane because it’s so comfy!

    11. What is his nickname? ex.) puppy, pooky, sweetmeat, etc. Pretty much does he have an embarrassing petname that you call him by?

    Sorry but he doesn’t have an embarrassing pet name that I call him. The only thing I can think of is that sometimes I refer to him as JE.

    12. Do you like Jeremy’s new hair cut?

    When his head was shiny bald I didn’t like it. It made him look like he was sick. But after it grew out a week or two I really do like it. He looks a little like David Beckham (the hot soccer player).

    13. Does he wear a hat recently?

    He did wear a hat for the first week since it is so cold here. One night he even went to bed with a stocking cap on.

    14. I would like to know what he does when he is outrageously angry. Does he swear and scream and kick things or does he approach it in a calm way and resolve it quickly?

    Jeremy never gets angry. Seriously, He is the happiest and most upbeat person I know. He approaches things in a calm way.

    15. Do you know who Melissa Midwest is?

    Yeah, she’s hot.

    16. Do you ever wish Jeremy worked a regular 9-5 job? And does he spend money on you or keep it all to himself?


    There were a few times I definitely wished he would just work a regular 9-5 job. In the beginning of his career I would have liked the stability of getting a pay check every 2 weeks and knowing exactly how much money you’ll be paid. That was one of the hardest things for me to adjust to, especially because we have a family to take care of. Jeremy spoils me and loves to spend money on me and the kids (he better not keep it all to himself since I don’t make any money! Except for the tips I make at amateur nights at Tiger Tail in Rockford. Just kidding!!)

    17. Is he as crazy in real life as he sometimes sound on the internet? Do you have anything to do with the business. Does he let you know what projects he is working on?

    Yeah he’s the same at home. I don’t have anything to do with the business. He does let me know to some extent what new and exciting projects he is working on.

    18. What is the one thing you love about what he does? In the same regard what is it that you dislike the most?

    I love that he is happy and that he loves doing what he does. The thing I dislike the most is trying to explain to people what my husband does for a living. People just don’t get it. So I say internet marketing.


    19. How often do you get called a “M.I.L.F.”?

    LOL. Occasionally I have.

    20. Over Under on Jeremy having his first 10 mill year?

    Don’t even know what to think of that. Can’t imagine making that much in a year.

    21. What are your thoughts about online gambling and your husband working in the industry. Also what do you think about Jeremy playing the high limit slots?

    I was a bit apprehensive about the industry in the beginning. I just didn’t want him to go to jail. Ahhh, the high limit slots, Jeremy usually doesn’t tell me about how much he’s gambling when he’s in a casino. I just like to hear about it when he wins. I am not a gambler at all and don’t like to lose money.

    22. Do you guys have a joint bank account?…Did you sign a pre-nup?


    Yeah, we do share a bank account since I don’t make any money. No pre-nup , he wasn’t making much money when we got married. No need for one either since we have never had a fight in 10 years and don’t intend on leaving eachother. Jeremy’s always said “whats mine is his and his is mine.“


    23. Did you know Jeremy was such a leader when you met him? At any point did you think he would give up and work a normal 9-5 job? Finally, if you could change 3 things about him, what would they be?

    Jeremy’s always been a leader in whatever he does. He doesn’t give up easily and when he puts his mind to do something, he makes it happen. There’s not a whole lot that I would change about Jeremy. After being married for 8yrs., I’ve come to love him for who he is and that includes good and bad qualities. I would only change little things like I wish he would pick his dirty laundry up off the floor.

    24. What’s the weirdest thing you have ever seen Jeremy do?


    Probably offering to wear the pink bunny suit to the WSOP. Recently betting his hair on a football team
    .

    25. Did you marry Jeremy because he was “ghetto like dat” or was it because of his “balling” nature?

    Jeremy was definitely not balling when I first met him (he was a paramedic on an ambulance, and although that’s a noble profession, he didn’t make much money. So I’d have to say because he’s “ghetto like dat”. He sure makes life fun and interesting, never a dull moment when Jeremy’s around.

    26. Did you ever ask Jeremy to come to bed with the pink bunny outfit on?

    No, not yet. But that’s a good idea, I don’t doubt he would do it! One Easter he did wear it around the house for the kids though. They loved it.

    27. Have you ever cheated on him?

    Never have and never will.

    2. Karen Enke Says:

      Jeremy really likes the Indian culture and has always wanted to go there. Your children are beautiful as well. And yes Jeremy does still have the Indian dress you sent him. I thought we emailed you the pictures, but I will blame that on Jeremy’s forgetfulness.

      Here is a picture from last summer if I can figure out how to get it on here. :)
