Let's Spoon
Thought you would all enjoy the conversation I had with my husband this morning on the way to marriage counseling.
I think everyone should do some sort of counseling in their life, especially if you're married. And when you've been together since you were 15 years old, it helps to have a 3rd party referee your conversations sometimes so no one loses an eye or lights something on fire. I like having someone with no vested interest in us telling me I am justified in being pissed off by his blatant disregard for my beauty sleep by his chainsaw snoring and he likes getting confirmation that I am in fact, bat shit crazy. It's a win-win for everyone.
Husband: It's too early for this shit.
Me: And by "shit" you mean our marriage. That's nice.
Husband: You know what I mean. I'm not even awake yet and we're supposed to talk about our feelings. Some things shouldn't be done before 9am.
Me: No, I get it.
Husband: I wonder if the therapist has Visine? My eyes aren't even awake yet and I feel like she's going to be judging me when I yawn.
Me: Now that you mention it, I haven't even had my coffee yet. I kind of want to kill you just for breathing right now. This session might not be very productive.
Husband: See what I mean? It's unnatural. I acknowledge the anger you feel without your morning cup of coffee and I support you in the murderous rampage you want to unleash on me right now.
Me: I appreciate your acknowledgement.
Husband: We should just ask her if we can spoon on her couch for an hour.
Me: See? We don't even NEED therapy. We just fixed ourselves.
Husband: Shut up, this is a good song. *turns up radio*
Me: It's like you don't even care.

Totally sounds like marriage "Misophonia". I'm in mental hell when my hubby has post-nasal drip. I go all Rambo on him!

We just watched an infomercial the other night called "Stop Smoking Tonight!" and the chick in this thing was ME! The huffing, the puffing, the elbow to the ribs, the kick to the thighs...it was hilarious! I wear earplugs now for his protection.
