Hilarious!! My Hubs says the same thing about our TV and College Football. I told him that if its all about the kids, then we can get a new TV when our 5 month old can say "TV". Guess what Daddy and Baby are practicing EVERY NIGHT?

Matt is the male version of me. This is why every marriage should have one stress ball and one laid back person. Because two laid back people? The kids would never be dressed. Two stressed people? The kids would never be able to leave the house.

Balance is good.

While I read your blog because of the great writing on mundane life, mostly it's because you write things like "bitch" and "cock". And in the same post to boot!

your swear-like-a-trucker soul sista!

It's thoughts like these that make me occasionally wish I was a man! ha!

Pathetically, I make my husband go down in the basement to put the laundry in the dryer, when he gets home from the PM shift. He no longer argues. What a nice man.

2009-10-13T20:06:49.417-07:00

I think my husband is living a double life and is really married to two women: me and you. He's name must be Matt when he's with you and David when he's with me.

I don't think any husband's stress like we do.......

2009-10-13T14:54:48.261-07:00

I don't think any husband's stress like we do....now that the kids are older his responses to their questions are more Homer Simpson-esque than I would prefer

"Do I have to get up for that?"

2009-10-13T09:39:37.736-07:00

this was so cute to read. i'm scared of the dark too! and Liv co sleeps with us. that's what the couch/guest bed is for! lol

2009-10-13T08:49:50.752-07:00

Leave it to a guy to make it all seem so simple.

WHY is it so simple for them? If I lived by that credo it would be a lonely life without friends.

But probably far less worrisome.

I hate to break this to you, new mom and all, but ...

2009-10-13T06:07:42.450-07:00

I hate to break this to you, new mom and all, but I think Matt is leading a double life. Here he's called Bob. It's so much more fun reading about my husband through your eyes though.

Poor Matt, he's so misunderstood. ;) I get stress...

Poor Matt, he's so misunderstood. ;)

I get stressed about asking for a free cup of water too.

My husband loved the one about your TV being too small.

2009-10-12T18:45:49.154-07:00

I love this post. My husband also thinks it's not watching tv, if the kids are watching some kind of sports.

2009-10-12T17:50:11.530-07:00

This is my first comment though I've been reading for awhile. This post required it, thank you so much for writing. This is my life. I have a 7 week old and I spent 2 weeks agonizing over binkies, to give or not to give. My husband may kill me.
I love reading your work.

Oh, he sounds like a keeper.

Brilliant post. It paints a lovely picture of a day in the life of your marriage. And I love that you used the term "cock blocker." Hilarious!

2009-10-12T16:48:09.770-07:00

he sounds awesome.

and an awful lot like my husband :-)

mine doesn't turn off the hall light (we don't have a hallway) but he does refresh my water for me if it's been sitting more than an hour because... hello... it's totally TERROR WATER if it's been sitting and growing BACTERIA and GERMS and the DEATH FLU. i don't think he gets it. ok, i know he doesn't get it. but he DOES it. and that's what counts :-)

hehehehehe!! Just hilarious!!

"Fourteen pound cock blocker. Also, why does he get all the boobies?"

Love it!!

Better still: "will you stop thinking?"

Sounds eerily familiar :))

2009-10-12T09:03:16.058-07:00

So hilarious.

Unfortunately for us both my husband and I are worriers. There are certain subjects we don't discuss or we'll be up all night worrying.

Great post. I'm a worrier and my husband is also ...

2009-10-12T08:31:28.288-07:00

Great post. I'm a worrier and my husband is also not so much a worrier. And yes college football is most definitely not TV. It's more like a light bulb...just has to be on.

2009-10-11T20:29:35.010-07:00

I think Matt should start a blog-husband's support group. My husband will be VP. They can watch college football together, because OMFG with the college football. Enough already! Do we even care about two teams from the midwest with ugly uniforms??

He does have a point on the chai, you could send your kids to school just on those funds alone!

2009-10-11T19:27:33.456-07:00

will mommies always be the ones who worry? I have my son's schedule in my head - what has he eaten for lunch and what does he need to eat for dinner to make it a balanced day? My husband has no idea..and when I was gone for a week, I shutter to think what the boy ate all week!

2009-10-11T18:03:05.559-07:00

I think I've had many eerily similar conversations. What I wouldn't give to have a testosterone driven non-worrying male mind.
