That’s the facts of it, might as well be the theory as well.
Mrs. has been whining about getting a fancy weather station for I dunno how long. Whelp, yesterday was the day to put one up. It shows temp and humidity inside & outside the house, wind speed, direction, lightning detection, rainfall amounts, displays averages and keeps historical data for all kinda stuff, solar powered, battery back-up for data retention and operation during power failure, tablet-sized display, does everything but shine her shooz and run the dishwasher. Never mind planting a pole to hang the damn thing on. Here, honey, have a lookit THIS!
She barely glances at it and says, oh, all right, shrugs and wanders off.
Ask her daily for the stats, curious if she can answer.
Ha ha! “Marriage is a great institution, but who wants to live in an institution?”
Wonderful bit in the book “The Princess Bride”. There is an old couple who are much as the pair in the video. Eventually, one of them passes, followed a week later by the other. Consensus in the local village is that in the case of the second to pass, the cause of death was “Lack of resistance”.
And i’ll bet a week later she asks him if it’s possible to put it a little higher…..
Yes…..
How high do you want the mirror mounted??
Eye level….ok I mount it eye level.
The mirror is much too high, I said eye level…
I’m 6’4, she is 5’7. She didn’t specify.
Mirror is rehung at her eye level.
When I look at the mirror, everything above chin level is cut off. Have to duck in order to use it
Marriage isn’t a word, it’s a sentence.
Man isn’t complete until he is married; then he is finished.
