    I got home from work last night to find out my wife baked cookies. It was pretty fantastic of her, until I realized she wanted to eat some of the cookies, too.

    I told her that since it was her birthday, she could have a couple.

    She didn't even thank me.

    I thought I would get some extra points too since I timed it perfectly so they were still warm when you walked in the door....

    Come on, still warm? They came out of the oven before he came in? geesh. He should be able to smell them baking for at least 5 minutes to entice his taste buds. This is basic cookie 101. I hope you get your act together afro. And I hope for your sake the milk was fresh and ice cold.

    Actually, JP, some had just come out of the oven and some were still in the oven when he walked in! :D;)

    It is true about the milk though...he had to pour his own glass...and I actually made him pour mine too....but I said it would count as a birthday present....

    Because of all the snow we received today, the wife's office closed and she doesn't have to work today.

    But I work from home every day, so I don't get a day off due to the weather. It's just not right.

    I assume that she spent her day shoveling then.

    My wife drove my car and left the seat moved up toward the wheel. I tried to get in the this morning and wrenched my back doing so. Thanks Honey

    This seriously happens every time I get into my wife's car. Crack my knees on the steering wheel.

    You'd think our wives would be considerate enough to push the seat backward after they're done. Ridiculous.

    On Saturday morning, I got out of bed early and made my wife pancakes, English muffins and coffee, and served it to her in bed.

    On Sunday morning, my wife got out of bed early and brought me cold cereal and coffee.

    I would have cooked her bacon, but she needs to buy some from the grocery store. Yet another grievance.

    But I asked you if there was anything you wanted from the store and you didn't mention bacon...remember when I went to the grocery store so you could have some Batmanning time alone...

    I was wondering if the original post is sarcasm.

    I'm wondering how long a few couples in this thread would stay married. That's a good question.
