I was reading this board & thinking about the new Snotty Cameron I bought last week, when "She Who Must be Obeyed" walked in:
SWMBO: Are you going to work with me on the backyard Saturday, or play golf?
Me: I don’t have any plans yet. [Continuing to read post]
SWMBO: We’re having a wedding shower here on the 15th.
Me: I know, It’s for Aprille. (niece-in law) [Continuing to read post]
SWMBO: You played all day last Saturday.
Me: I know [Looks up from Computer & senses something happening here]
SWMBO: You were sick Sunday & didn’t work in the back.
Me: That’s probably why I played so bad Saturday, I was coming down with this cold.
SWMBO: After you told me you would plant flowers.
Me: I know
SWMBO: I want you to go with me & pick out plants.
Me: OK, that’ll be fine.
SWMBO: And, I think you should help me!
Me: OK, no problem.
SWMBO: All day.
Me: I guess I could play Sunday.
SWMBO: That’s MOTHERS DAY!
Me: What do you want to do?
SWMBO: Do I have to make plans? [short exposition on my faults as far as planning social events]
Me: Ok, I’ll plan something. [any hope of 18 holes is drifting out the widow, like a puff of smoke]
SWMBO: Rebecca (daughter) and I are gonna lay out by the pool all day, if the weather’s nice.
Me: Then if the weather’s nice I can play? [hope springs eternal]
SWMBO: Would you leave me on Mother’s day?
Me: I guess you’re telling me I can’t play golf this weekend.
SWMBO: I wouldn’t tell you that, but you have other responsibilities [follows is a short exposition on responsibilities]
Me: Uh-huh [click – the sound of brain switching off]
SWMBO: [A longer exposition on being irresponsible]
Me: Uh-huh. [glazed look in my eye]
SWMBO: [an exposition about being responsible]
Me: So you don’t want me to play golf this weekend?
SWMBO: You have to make your own decisions [leaves the room].
SWMBO (Disgusted voice from another room): Are you going to order flowers for your Mom, or do I have to do that too?
Me: [Turns off computer & goes to see about being married, or happily married]
I'm not sure what I'll do, but I’m pretty sure that I’m not gonna work on the Snotty this weekend.:faintthud
