so last weekend i took the wife and kid to Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky for a day/night on our way to the in-laws.

shes irritated with me in the morning for any myriad of reasons your wife would be irritated with you and its time to leave. were on the third floor and we get to the stairwell. she says to me which way - i said we need to go down to get to the car.

even more irritated with my answer as it is perceived as patronizing, she says "so which way".

At this point im full on condescending because stairs only work two ways and she knows were not on ground floor.

"these are the stairs to go down"

I dont know that I have ever been so irritated with someone that i completely lack the ability to determine which direction is needed to walk/exit.

The where to go to eat thing gets us sometimes... If I pick she doesn't like the choice, if I let her choose she can't do it and reverts to me just picking,.......... the wheel keeps turning.

I find myself having to constantly pray for patience and acceptance.

Not only do I have to decide which restaurant 99% of the time, but what to cook at home 99% of the time as well. On top of that, she's a very picky eater- as in "this piece of bacon, steak, pork chop, this_______ looks weird, that ______ blank looks weird." Don't even get me started on chicken. Every. Single. Cut. Of. Chicken. Is. Weird. Raw and uncooked. Whole, cut, uncut, carved, uncarved as well- it doesn't matter.

i read a really good trick for this

you ask - "where do you think were going"

then take them to the first place they guess.

I read a lot of y’all’s dramas and think, ‘white girl issues’,… but the whole ‘what dafaq do you want to eat!?!’ Thing is multi-cultural, it is the melting pot of female drama, it’s what brings them all together regardless of color.

Of course,… my post was general and not at you. Just shits and giggles towards the different long held generalizations,…

Me: "Let's have porkchops for dinner, I'll get everything at the store." (I cook too)
Wife: "YES! Also, can you get apple sauce to go with it?"
Me: "Sure"

Me: *Makes smashed potatoes with roasted green beans and broccoli to go with pan fried pork chops in an apricot garlic glaze*
Wife: *Sit's down without apple sauce*
Me: "You don't want apple sauce with dinner?!"
Wife: "No, you didn't make breaded pork chops. You only eat apple sauce with breaded pork chops."

My wife is mad at me today because I tried to cheat on her with another woman...


in a dream she had.
My wife used to do this all the time too, not so much these days. At least every 3 months she'd get one of those dreams, then she'd be mad at me the rest of the day lol. I never really leave the house either, I work from home and I'm a homebody the rest of the time so I always tease her that it would be pretty hard for me to cheat under the circumstances.

The wife has been wanting to move (about 2ft) our cable box, router, DVD player, UPS, etc. because she doesn't like that all of the cables can be seen. All the cables from the TV are bundled and not hanging nilly willy. No way to hide them unless I remove some bricks from the fireplace and cut into some drywall. Yesterday I get home from work to find equipment unplugged and cables all over the place. She tells me she started to move everything and when she started to hook everything back up, she didn't know what cable went where and decided to leave it for me. Bless her heart.

The timing of unhooking the television is suspicious, right after March Madness and the Masters. Something foul is afoot.....

We're remodeling our master bath. She's providing the inspiration and I'm providing the labor. We're looking at walk in closet systems. Nothing at the big box stores interest us. I find an option online where you can design it and it shows you regular views and a 3D rendering. I show her the design and she says it's not what she wants. A week later she tells me she found a design she likes, tells me the name of the website and to check it out. Any guesses on the website? lol

Those closet companies nickel and dime you on everything to drive up the price.

Felt like I was getting shaken down and my wife was in on it. Very annoying experience and it felt great to tell them all to get lost.

That they do. We went to the Container Store to check them out and the cost came back at 13K! I want something decent, but I don't think my clothes will be any happier in 13K closet vs. a 5K closet.
