Who does the waiting?

Post by gardener »

Me, always!

My husband drives me nuts. He got up late and went for a massage "to relax him before his flight" cos he is off to Toronto via Boston today.

So, then he comes home and rounds up four shirts which need ironing, including one which seems to have lost an argument with a nail because it needed darning too - obviously I could have donw these while he was being massaged, had I known. Meanwhile he is packing.

Now it is 14.40, the flight is at 17:00 and the airport is 45 minutes away. And where is the lord and master? Gone for a shower!!!! ******!!!!******!!!!!*****

Men!!

Last year my other half was working away, and when he got back we were going away for a few days. Because he wouldn't have time I sorted out his clothes and put them in a pile ready for him to pack. All he had to do was sort out his undies and socks. :roll:
You'd have thourght he'd have noticed there was something missing when he packed them, wouldn't you... but no. Luckily there were shops where we were going! :shock: :roll:

Now I tell him at least three times not to forget his undies!

Logic merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

I don't know about the wages of sin, but the wages of checking in late seem to be an upgrade to business class :shock: Some folk have all the luck :lol:
