Some times I get the “you never remember to do the things I ask you” speech from my wife, so I really try hard to make sure not to forget…some times I still do, nothing intentional mind you, just I might have 15 things going on and I remember 14, but miss one, always seems to be the one thing she’ll latch onto. I know this is not at all abnormal for married couples, most the guys I know hear the same thing from their wives.
Anyway, last night at maybe 6pm she says to me, next one of us who goes to the basement should bring up a roll of paper towels (they are on a shelf leading to the basement). So, about 7:30 I’m heading down to the basement with a load of laundry, and as I’m walking down, I grab a roll of paper towles and roll them across the kitchen floor to where she’s standing.
She says, thanks, but I already got one (we had one in a paper bag from a recent picnic we went to)...she said she just grabbed it because she figured I’d forget. It made me think how often am I getting in trouble for all the forgetting she thinks I was gonna do. To me, THAT sounded like a country song.
