Today I was told I was naive because I couldn't comprehend the husband/wife issues in the office. I know I just got married 8 months ago and that my life right now is comparatively simple. We do not yet have children with schedules of their own and committees and meetings to attend. We are just us right now.

I still do not think that I have to submit to the steriotypical spouse syndrome (S3). You know, the one where husbands don't get gifts for their wives that their wives actually like. The one where wives just nag nag nag all day and cry the whole night because they are so emotional. The one where husbands are hypotized by THE sports event of the year and wives just don't get it. The one where wives can spend $100 on a basket and send their husband through the roof or the husband buys a new set of golf clubs and the wife screams her head off. S3 victims are the ones you see talking to each other in "that tone" or not at all. They don't ever find time for each other and when they do all they can talk about is household/kids/money stuff which is funny because they usually don't have time for that talk either. Another S3 symptom is the uncanny ability to speak ill of their spouse and not mean a word of it. Have you ever seen this?

Happy Solstice

Thu., Dec. 21, 2006, marks the solstice—the beginning of winter in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere. It is also the shortest day of the year in terms of daylight. From here on out we will be seeing more daylight here in the North Hem.

More light. That's nice. But I ordered SNOW!!!!

To buy or not to buy.....

It is Sunday afternoon and my husband and I are vegging out on the couch. He was reading the WSJ and read an article about renting versus buying and he difference in cost. So, do you rent or are you buying? If renting, why? Why aren't you buying?

Blaming Christmas

Do you have a grinch in your office?
