Mars, Venus, and a Thousand Tiny Cuts
Wife came back from Costco this evening after picking up photos from tot's birthday today. I'm on the floor playing with said tot. Wife makes a big production about how 'she has a point to make'.
She had found a roll of film we thought had gone missing the last time we were at her dad's in L.A. She found the roll in the front pocket of my suitcase, where I was sure I'd looked. I remember putting the roll in a black purse that I thought was hers at the time. I have no idea how it got into that suitcase pocket. Somehow or another, her 'point' was that I don't listen to her. So now she's happy to have these pictures, and I'm sitting at work fuming because what the [censored]? How the [censored] does a missing roll of film turning up equate to 'I don't listen to her'? That's how they beat you down, young men. A male will shoot you in the chest, or punch you upside the head. A female will just slowly bleed you with a thousand tiny cuts. |

Re: Mars, Venus, and a Thousand Tiny Cuts
EVERYTHING translates into you not listening to her. Just tune it out.

My first reaction was that I've had enough criticism for one day. Then, rational mind LOL'd and asked what I posted in OOT for if I've had enough criticism. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

Re: Mars, Venus, and a Thousand Tiny Cuts
Yup, I've been getting beef from the wife lately too about "not listening", or something like that. I wasn't really paying attention.
I mean, [censored], the game was on, you know. After a while it gets tiring hearing the same old [censored] day in and day out: "Why don't you get a job" "You need to shower", "Have you moved from this couch since tuesday?" GAH, LEAVE ME ALONE WOMAN! Anyway, the point is, even if you aren't interested, show a little interest. Or something like that. I put Michael Jackson's "Beat it" on in the record player in my mind and just bob my head in what I hope are appropriate spots. |
