Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do

My wife has a fairly rigid work schedule and she told me that for the fall semester, after school ballet started earlier one day of the week.  She asked if I could switch up my work from home schedule since she wouldn’t be able to meet the bus and get to the studio from work, and of course I said yes.  When I asked her whether I needed to move to Mondays or Thursdays she huffily told me to look at the shared family Google calendar because she couldn’t keep it all memorized.
 

I did, and negotiated a Monday home day (the team requires in-office coverage all days).  Tonight she starts looking at the paper schedule and PANIK: data entry error, Thursday is the real early start date and class starts this week. Now I have to try and renegotiate this shit with colleagues and bosses, and she is big mad at me for failing to cross-reference her calendar with the paper schedule (which was inside her purse, although she says she’d have given it to me if I asked about it). 

I’m not sure how my wife is juggling 2 families but I’m certain we married the same person.

Why does every text, no matter how innocuous, unimportant, random, or irrelevant to my, my wife's, or my daughter's daily existence require a response?

 

 

Tell her she's much more likely to get a response to one of her texts if it also includes a pic of her tits.

Either she gets mad at you and stops texting, or she starts sending you tit pics.  Win-win.

Son is freshman in college living in the dorms. Mom wanted to send him a care package. Very nice of her, right? He told her to just send him some protein bars so she Amazon'd some to him. He just sent me this picture with the only comment: "Dude."

Poor kid had to walk to the mail center in the student union (~20 minutes) to pick this shit up and haul it back. Thanks, mom!

Now she needs to send him something to wash them down with

We’re about to start renovations and getting materials delivered to the house.

Me: Are you gonna be home around noon? They’re delivering the cabinets today.

Her: Put them in the garage?

Me: No, just have them leave it on the grass outside.

My wife is 45 and an elementary school teacher.

While driving today:

Wife: I wonder how much they get paid.

Me: Who?

Wife: The people who fly those jets that make the clouds.

Me: Airline pilots?

Wife: No the ones that fly the jets.

Me: You mean like Southwest Airlines.

Wife: No, the jets.

Me: Commercial airlines ARE jets. They have jet engines.

Wife: I thought they were airplanes.

Me: They're all airplanes. If they have jet engines, they are jets. If they have propellers, then they are Prop planes.

Wife: Anyway, I'm talking about those jets that fly way up in the sky and make those cloud lines.

Me: Those are called contrails. And commercial airlines routinely fly that high.

Wife: I figured it was just a Navy jet or something making the clouds.

Me: Wait, you think that there is a Navy pilot who's only job is to fly around and make clouds in the sky when there aren't any?

Wife: Yeah.

Me: Guess what I'm posting on my football forum?

Wife: Wait... NO! NO!
 

Well shit I guess I need to look into homeschooling now.

That way the best case scenarios is your kids are as smart as your wife in regards to math, science, history,  English, logic, reasoning etc, while having stunted social skills.

Figured this was a good place for this. Someone posted a meme about their daughter making brownies and goofing a measurement. Not sure how old the "daughter" is but it's an honest enough mistake for a kid learning to cook and kind of humorous. (She added 1 and 1/3 cup instead of 1/3)

Here's where it gets good: comments from GROWN ASS WOMEN in the comment section.

It is a running joke in our house when it comes to my wife (no pics) having to double a recipe. Something has 2/3 a cup that has to be doubled is like quantum physics apparently. 

 

Tell her the math is easy, you just multiply both numbers by 2 so she needs 4/6 at the end.

She goes to drive oldest daughter’s car around the neighborhood late last evening to make sure everything is ok with it. Because it’s been sitting because she doesn’t drive it so we’re going to sell it. There’s a guy coming to look at it at 9a.

This morning I take it to the car wash last minute before the guy comes. The low tire pressure light is on.

Text:

Me: hey was the low tire pressure light on last night?

Her: Not that I noticed but yea probably.
