The Garage Door Opener Illusion
So, today my husband installed a new garage door opener. This is something I've been asking for since we bought our home 3 years ago. Its very nice, but I'm not sure that it will serve HIS purpose.
So, this garage door opener is the result of an argument we had last week. He doesn't understand why I'm so unhappy all the time, I tried to explain to him all the work I do and how the more I do the less he does. I even tried giving him examples of things he could do to make my life easier and more fun...I suggested managing his children better, making sure the children pick up after themselves, helping with the laundry, taking me out sometimes, planning a special date! Anyway, apparently in the course of my tirade, I mentioned garage door opener...*sigh* so my husband in his infinite wisdom decided that this was the answer to all his problems and in his manly way ran out and bought me a garage door opener under the masculine misintepretation that this 'one' thing would suddenly turn me into a happy, horny woman....
Sorry, honey, it didn't work, but I really do love the garage door opener. Now...take me out on a date!

Yeah, I think we married the same man.
Mine has chosen to show his "love" this week by fixing the weedeater. Needless to say, we're going to Outback tonight. I get my love from steak.

Men!
Tell me about it.
Worse comes to worse, we'll just borrow Cruella's frying pan. I think she needs to get a new one, though. Maybe we can all chip in and get one of those huge, industrial-sized cast iron skillets and trade it back and forth. Sometimes a good beating with the rolling pin just isn't enough. Hang in there!

a friend of mine gave me a wall hanging that says...
"Men! If your wife doesn't treat you as you deserve....
BE THANKFUL!"

Here a joke along those same lines
This woman was standing outside talking to the police when her neighbor came up and asked what happened. She says that her husband is missing. The police officer says "Okay, what does he look like?" She says "Well, he's 6 feet tall, has an athletic build, and thick wavy hair" The neighbor says "That's not what your husband looks like, he's short, fat and bald." To which she replies "Ya, but who wants him back."

Peeps in the room...
Hi, just wandered in... Has anyone noticed that it's almost a full moon out tonight?
Man, I just noticed that when everyone else is having problems with their man, mine is doing pretty darn good... but I've been in a pretty darn good mood lately... scratching my head why...
Oh, yeah, it's because I've been doing actually nothing this past week... imagine that. Yeah, but I just did 5 loads of laundry today, 1 load of dishes, half of a bathroom... yep, tomorrow he'll be a d!ckhead too.
Man has the intelligence to change his life,
Sometimes, he just fails to use it...
