What about husbands and the stupid shit they do???

A couple of months ago I booked a romantic dinner/rooftop bar & pool/ hotel for tomorrow night.  Not even the thought of unlimited sexual relations is helping me with this decision.

I see the disappointment, but it’s LA Tech. If it’s close, you wouldn’t want to have watched anyways.

Maybe the hotel will have LHN and you can do it doggie style while watching the game

But what will you do after the opening kickoff is completed?

Our country property has a barn with attached living space. Mrs CL uses it as a remote office about 1-2 days a week. The previous owner and his wife lived there. We don't. We lease the pasture out and have an ag exemption on the property taxes. 

A couple of months ago Mrs CL offhandedly mentioned that someone from the appraisal district had stopped by and asked to look around and take some pictures. I got pretty upset with her and said that was a bad idea to ever let them onto the property and I was promptly told to "Quit being so paranoid. We have nothing to hide."

Got this in the mail today:

They are (properly) reducing our ag exemption by 1 acre to account for the "existing homestead" that has been there for 17 years and isn't visible from the highway in front. My guess is that the former owner built it that way on purpose and never told them about it and never offered to let them inside. 

I'm thinking that it ultimately doesn't cost us a lot of money, but that is offset by the fact that it was completely avoidable.

How long you been married?

This right here is exactly how marriage works married guys try and salvage what might be the rare "she's in the mood" evening.

 

 

Married 17 years.  The getaway is for her birthday, so it's more a matter of doing the right thing than getting lucky.  Plus, we have a pretty active - um, under-the-covers - life, so that's not an issue.

Drawers.  Bottom freezer/fridge door, bottom oven drawer etc.....I can't remember in all my life having issues with pulling a drawer out and not being able to get it back in.  But damn does she.

Shortly thereafter, a fella with the twitter handle @free_mason thanked Delconte for the changes to the north end of the stadium.

So in a continuation from the football board from Sat night...

My wife got drunk for the 3rd time in her life.  We were staying at a nice hotel in downtown Dallas for a short getaway.  At about 1 in the morning, TN's loss to Georgia St began to hit her.  

Her:  OOOOMMMMMGGGGG!  WE LOST TO GEORRRRRRRGIIIIIIIIIAAAAAASTTTTTTTTAAAAAAATEEEE!

Me: Yeah, y'all kind of suck.

Her:  WEEEEEEEEEE SUCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK!

Me: Um, you wanna keep it down a bit?  You're being very loud.

Her:  WEEEEEEEEE LOOOOOOOSSSSSSTTTTT.  I'MMMMMMMMMSOOOOOOOOOOO ANNNNNNNNNGRYYYYYYYY!

Me:  Seriously.  STFU.  I have no idea how thick these walls are.

Her:  AT  LLLLLLLLEAAAASSSSSSTTTTT WE'VE STTTTTTTTILLLLLLL GOTTTTTTT BASKETBALLLLLLLLLLL!

Me: No.  Y'all will suck at that too.

Her:  WHHHHHHHYYYYYYA    ARRRRRRRREEEE YOU BEEING SO MMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEANNNNNNNNN?!?!?

This shit went on for 30 GD minutes.  In retrospect, it was kind of funny because nothing bad happened.

New one that is awesome.

We are out of the city so on a well. Had the well filter serviced last week.

So, the last 5 days after service the water pressure was shit. We didnt know why. Wife was pissed at them. Constantly complaining we have no water pressure. I even went to the pump and showed her it's at 60 psi so I dont get it.

This morning I went to the back lot to load up the tractor to go to the lease and it is MUDDY. Weird. Load the tractor. I go up to the house and the water hose is on.

It was on for a f'ing week. She left it on after watering plants last weekend.

Mrs CL: What does this app do on your phone?

Me: It talks to my radar detector with bluetooth. It can tell you the location of speed traps and the speed limit wherever you are on the highway. I don't ever use it because you have to restart it every time you get in the car and pair it with your phone and login each time. It's cool but it's a huge pain in the ass.

Mrs CL: Oh. Ok. Thanks. 

Me: What did you think it did?

Mrs CL: I thought you might be chatting with hookers.

My wife bought a bike. Then bought a bike rack to hang her bike on the wall in the garage. Then hung it up while I was gone. Then...c2d78feb83a87d3c80dc590d9a7dc388.jpg

That’s the drywall installers fault for not installing drywall that would handle a 30lb bike.

Please report back with the water bill.

ummm...no.

I haven't been on a well in 30 years, and I even I could tell it was probably a hose left on, especially after checking the psi at the pump.  to let it ride for a week like that?  do you not ever shower or wash your hands?  stanco, indeed.

I call that one a team effort.

Let me help you. The property has a well, which was established in the post. 

Therefore the only cost of water is the little bit of electricity needed to run the pump. 

Hopefully for him, she didn’t drain the well too much and they have to hope for rain very soon to fill the water table back up.

So we built our house 5 years ago. We are in NE texas so very inexpensive on a larger home. I'm not an engineer but I was really involved on a lot of things including the HVAC system, tankless heaters, audio, etc. I did two AC units with 3 zones each. So, 6 separate thermostats. One is in what I call the mother in law room. It is a bedroom for guests, but typically my smother in law. It has it's own thermostat. It is off the kitchen and NEVER EVER USED unless they are here.

Tonight I walk in there, and the thermostat is at 74 and I lose my shit. That thermostat is ONLY for that room by design when I helped with the HVAC guys. It should be set at 90 when nobody is staying.

She says she lowered it because sometimes she goes to the bathroom in there because it is near the kitchen.

No words.

You have SIX thermostats?  You do realize that's not even close to normal right? That's like Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory weird. 

Yes, all new homes do this. There are zones in areas to save money. Which we are not fully utilizing this potential obviously.

I have a bonus room up in the attic with a big screen. I set it to 500 degrees in the summer so it wont come on, ever. Unless of course I go up there then i change it.

I mean, what did you expect?

Let’s give my wife six thermostats with which to play. What could go wrong?
