So true, but being a slacker my innate laziness kicks in if someone else isn't telling me what to do.

Of course the reality is that if someone IS telling me what to do then it's not long before i'm resenting it either!

Anyway, if I had a job I wouldn't be heading off for a month in Costa Rica at the end of the month--yay! So look forward to more Costa Rica stories soon.

Re: Answer the perennial question

I second TromboneAl's statement.* Some sheep people have no imagination on how to live their lives.* Geez ... if I couldn't think of better things to do all day than sit in a cubicle, I'd want to be shot!

There are SO many things I would love to do more often that I just don't have the time for as a participant in the rat race.* ... even boring/utilitarian things like hand-washing and waxing my truck, baking cookies, reading more, learning a new language, taking a walk, etc.*

CFB,

You sound like a stereotypical woman!! I think the whole "househusband" thing is making your estrogen levels go up. You feelin maternal right now?

You're in luck. Grab a beer (or a cooler full), turn on the tv, and I hear there may be some basketball games on tonight and for the next couple weeks. That should return some testosterone to you. Maybe eat some chips, wipe the grease on your shirt, and burp loudly.

Shirt?

I got scowled at earlier for recording a new answering machine message and burping at the end.

Shirt. As in the thing you left on the floor next to the couch from two days ago. It's still there, right? Right next to your shoes and crushed beer cans. Unless your husband has you whooped.

Actually I pile them up on the edge of the platform tub so the baby can pull them off onto the floor in the morning, and then one of the cats can pee on them.

Re: Answer the perennial question

Yep. "I do not like a 100lb dog sticking its nose 3 feet up my butt, and I really dont like it when the same dog takes 2-3 quick steps towards me every time I run by because it likes to see me run a little faster".

Whizzing on my clothes beats taking a crap on my work bench in the garage though. Cant throw that in the wash... :P

Spouse walked by the monitor 20 minutes ago, and I spent that time explaining how your sentence could be taken out of context...

Me: "Here, honey, just read his other posts. You'll understand!"

Her: "Oh, I'm afraid that I already do understand..."

Re: Answer the perennial question

No extra charge for the succinctness of the explanation.

Sometimes it takes me a full 15 minutes to respond to the question "Whats so funny?"
