A little bit lighter and little bit sloppier today. Shopgirl's catching a few Z's before she goes to give a massage tonight. Happens to be the first day since being sick all weekend that I was able to get to the store.
Ever tried to bring groceries in the house and put them away quietly while someone's sleeping? Not easy. I managed to drop pretty much everything. Yet I still don't think I woke her.
Anyway, long day. Now I'm looking forward to some "Lost" and "Justified". Big TV night for me.
Extra punch line: Five minutes after I finished the comic, the goddamn doorbell rang. Don't know who it was. I don't answer the door.
ReplyDeleteMV, that is so sweet. Whenever I try to take a nap I always get woken up to "make sure that I really want to be taking a nap." I guess that this is my fault for doing the whole "why did you let me sleep so long?" crap.
ReplyDeleteKiddo, however, does not think that I should ever nap. In fact, I should never, ever be far enough away from him phyisically, emotionally or sleep-wise - that he cannot ask me stupid questions. I have been woken up before so that he can ask me shit like "Is this lunch meat still good?"
Dude, smell the shit. I would get up and smell the shit and look at the pull date. For whatever reason, I am just better at 'knowing' if food is still good or not than anyone else in this household.
Jeesh.
The more I think about it the more that I think that your concern for shopgirl's nap was completely and totally generous and loving.
Anjha, first of all -- thanks for the comments!! I haven't told many people I'm doing this again, so it's not widely known (obviously, judging by the lack of comments -- unless people do know and just don't care to comment), and I was even kinda wondering if what I'm doing is of any interest whatsoever to anyone.
ReplyDeleteI guess that's still debatable, but your comments are validating and inspiring. Thank you again.
Second, I laughed out loud. I guess it's not intentionally funny and I don't claim to be the Husband of the Year, but it seriously never occurred to me to be like, "Shopgirl! You're napping! Did you know you were napping?? Did you MEAN to be napping? Are these pickles old??"
She worked all day, she's got a lot on her mind, she had a backache, and she had a massage to give that night. My opinion is: NAP.
I just feel bad it was the only day I could get to the store. 8)
