My husband won't STFU!
I am going to have to revoke his play time with friends if he continues to come home all high and chatty! When I go out with my friends at least I have the common courtesy to come home and pass out, but not Mr. Chatterbox, no I get to hear all about his new squirrel proof bird feeder design. Like this one is going to work any better than the last 20!

:rant:

5. 21st attempt at a squirrel-proof bird feeder...
...reminds me of scenes and characters from Twin Peaks... Well, Nadine found her holy grail, perhaps your husband will find his! (And you won't have to listen to it all day- may you both have what makes you happy) ;)

12. And the truly ludicrous part of the whole thing is that he is now
convinced there is some kind of squirrel mafia just waiting to mess with him. I'll hear the back door slam and then these loud clicky screeching noises, he claims he's telling them to "Get the fuck out of my bird feeder or I'll use your tail for an antennae decoration" in SQUIRREL! :crazy:

18. why the hell is my boyfriend at your house?
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 12:23 PM by kagehime
the other night it was my leftovers from lunch, a giant serving of this chicken fried rice dish he made, a dozen cookies, a bag of popcorn and a candy bar :rofl:

of course, my guy doesn't get chatty, so maybe it wasn't him :P

21. If I ate 1/3 of the shit that man piles into his gaping maw
everyday, I'd wind up one of those ginormous people Dr. Phil loves to exploit. Freaking men and thier freaking high metabolic rates!

20. There is such a thing as too much togetherness...
I don't make him listen to me bitch about hair-color plans and he should keep his squirrel feeder to himself! (oops, I meant squirrel-proof bird feeder ;) )

28. Hey, at least he considers you someone he really wants to talk to.
That's a sign of a healthy relationship. You're not just his wife, you're also his friend too. He feels comfortable talking to you about squirel proof bird feeders and stuff. :)
