I Screwed Up Again


I Screwed Up Again


Mrs. C got home from work early tonight.  She came in the door and then hollered up the stairs.

“JOSEPH!”

Full name…not good.

Immediately my mind started whirling, what did I do?

Inside the balloon over my head

Hmm…I did have a cigar and a glass of wine before dinner, but I smoked outside, sprayed Febreze around the deck and put the wine bottle away.  I know I closed and locked the patio door.  I was in the basement, but am positive I turned off the gas heater and shut out all the lights.  I did a load of laundry and have not yet put it in the dryer…no, that can’t be it.  I unloaded the dishwasher, loaded it with my dinner dish, and cleaned the sink.  I have no idea.

OK, here goes.

“WHAT?”

“WHY DID YOU PUT AWAY MY DISH AND FORK AND THROW AWAY THE ALUMINUM FOIL!!?”

Mrs. Cranky had a slice of pizza before work and was going to have the last slice of yesterday’s pie when she came home from work.

“BECAUSE IT WAS DIRTY AND USED!”

“WELL I WAS NOT THROUGH WITH THEM!!”

“SORRY, USE A NEW DISH AND A NEW PIECE OF FOIL; I’LL PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY OWN MONEY!”

You’ll never guess what she called me.

  5. Gosh, my brain can't cope with such posers. Maybe the answer will come to me when I've had a nap.

  8. You two are so funny. Surely "Jerk" is on your driver's license. Maybe as a middle name?

  9. She called you a jerk didn't she. I knew it. You get in trouble for doing good? I don't get that and I'm guessing you don't either.

    Have a fabulous day. ☺

    1. Yes, JERK is correct, and it is so much better than the previous wife who would call me a "Dumb Fucking jerk-off asshole!!" Whenever her mental disability decided to kick in...which was at least three times a month. Once a month was a guarantee.

  12. May be if she sees a bug, she will not leave the used plates and the fork and or knife out. LOL

  13. Maybe you need to set up a "wash it now" pile and a "don't touch it" pile.

  14. I guess the secret is to never touch anything that is hers.
