Marital communication really isn’t conversation. It’s about 3 things:
1. passing off errands (hey, while you’re out, can you go to these 3 other stores which are nowhere near where you’re gonna be and get me stuff I was too lazy to get for myself)
2. catching the other person in a lie (did you eat the last piece of bread? No? Well, I know you did because I tied a special knot in the bag).
3. And, one upsmanship about who had the worse day (your boss yelled at you? Big deal. I got fired).
The other night I was really tired, and I said I only slept for 4 hours, which I complained about to my wife.
Her response: That’s nothing. I’ve been up for 25 hours IN ONE DAY and for 4 of those hours I had to watch you sleep with your mouth open.

Oh man so true on many levels,I always ask my husband to do stuff I’m too lazy to do. he’s always pretty good about it though. I know the jig will be up at some point but for now I’ll milk it 🙂
P.s. we’re also a mixed and happy couple, husbands French Canadian and Scottish and I’m Mexican. We tell our girls it’s our duty to mix up the world with beautiful people of all colors.
I also forgot too mention my husband’s has blog too, it’s all about being comic book loving dad and being married to craziness. It’s nerds of mass distraction, check it out 🙂
