i had this friend once. [ i mean he's still my friend... but thats besides the point ]
he got married.
..
and he lived deliriously happy ever after...
which was all very nice for everyone concerned. he was all coochy coo with his wife and stuff and she was a great sport too... she cooked normal ppl food [ awesomely ], she cleaned his house, darned his socks, washed AND ironed his clothes, etc etc
but slowly day by day there were changes to his life.
he cud no longer eat a slice of pizza for dinner. or an omelette just coz he 'felt' like it.
..
he cudn't throw his dirty laundry in the side of his room, keep a messy shower, dirty the sink, leave the toothpaste cap off, leave the toilet seat up.
..
he couldn't have afternoon naps, he cudn't watch die hard or alien vs predator 10 times in a row as a weekend marathon. or prison break [ omg thats soo harsh how can u watch it?? lets watch i love jeanie instead ]
..
he cut down on his drinking, his meat eating, his swearing.
..
he started bathing on sundays and national holidays, he started wiping his feet on the doormat. vaccuming the house on sundays..
..
washing his plates, doing the dishes instead of managing with paper plates....
..
no longer was it, lets go to starbucks for brkfast of a coffee and a muffin. it was i'll make the sausage and do the dishes...
..
he cudn't go to bed early on weekdays nights coz he had to 'talk' to his wife. u know the heart searching.. i mean soul searching.. wat did u do with your day, and what life lesson have we learnt today kind of talk and just when he thought that he was done for the day, then he had to call her parents and talk to them for half an hour asking after all her realitves back home...
..
he cudn't plan a vacation without factoring in her strange old relatives, that they wud have to visit..
..
he saw all his savings dwindle away into a trickle, coz his wife spends more on bare essentials such as conditioner, lipsticks, creams, soaps, lotions, nightclothes, chocolate, party clothes, summer clothes, winter clothes... etc etc than he did the entire yr of 2008. [ and that included his second laptop, wii and his gps ]
..
..
but other than that. he has an AWESOME time after he got married... he walks around with the biggest grin a human can wear. i dunno if i shud be wildly happy for him or.....
but seeing the overwhelming evidence, i wud most certainly recommend it to u ppl tooo...
That surely helped me to strengthen my resolve. Thanks for yet another iOpener.
