"It'll only take a minute..."

[Bailey Guns]

I would have just told her the plate wouldn't fit that location.

No way I'm gonna say that. Then I'd have to endure a 2 hour, Gestapo-like interrogation.

Why? What if you did it this way? Why can't you do this? I'd rather spend the entire day making it work.

Usually how most small tasks end up for me. What aggravates me more is when the wife decides on Sunday afternoon that some project needs to be done that ordinarily takes a couple days, but since she has no idea, she thinks it will only take an hour or so. Then she gets all bent when I respond with a very quick "No". This is the woman who is known for starting 4 or 5 home improvement projects that she thought were easy, but runs into a snag and goes off to start another one. I come home from somewhere to find 5 messes that I have to resolve. Invariably several involve a completely stripped screw or something because she was using the wrong tool... and the simple becomes amazingly complex.

And then has the nerve to ask when I am going to get around to working on that pile of junk in the garage that has been there "forever". Well, if I wasn't over-involved with my sons' activities because you guilt me into it, then have unreasonable expectations of home projects, I might have a fricken minute or two to dedicate to what "I" want to do. Which usually comes out worded as "yeah, I hope soon."

"Finally. I asked you to do that like 2 hours ago."

Yes you did darling. yet when i ask, You always have a headache.

Thinking about sex, I am reading the thread title in a completely different way.

Or you'd just get a different project. Better to stay on the task at hand and keep it simple.

The problem is finding duct tape to match her shoes.

My wife never makes me do anything I don't want to do because she's the best wife ever and also doesn't exist.
