    Yeah I'm mostly whining because I'm getting run ragged doing everything. I can add another thing I may have to pull off quickly, one of our daughters is working on getting accepted to grad school for the fall semester and it looks like the one she's interested in wants to meet her for an in person interview late next week. It's 5 hours away so I'd have to do the round trip in one day so I can get back and take care of her. Long day... more whining. I love my wife

    if you leave the resin the pieces will stick to the roach clips

    but seriuosly you could use a roach clip but I actualy used small side cutters & hemostats from my tool kit and i washed em with alcohol

    its less painful than their staple removal pliers and you don't need to get to a clinic

    They only hurt if the person removing them is in a hurry and not careful. You have to get the remover square across the staple or it will bend at an angle and hurt. It also matters how long the staples have been in--the longer the more inflammation and pain there is. The staples on my sternal incision didn't hurt a bit coming out. Nothing wrong with doing it your way though--in fact, we'd prefer you do it yourself so we have more time to watch porn on the clinic computers.

    I can't remember, is this the annoy thread. If so, having the battery die in my mouse and having to use the touch pad on the lap top is super annoying. I could change the battery--that's also annoying.

    Laughing about not bothering docs so they can watch porn.

    I'm the guy who removed a vasectomy stitch in his own ball sack because the doc said that the stitch was supposed to disintegrate on its own, that I didn't need to come back, and it was a week past when he said. It stung a little. And I had never heard of disintegrating external stitches.

    This improves nothing in our relationship. But now I’m mildly glib instead of mildly irritated.

    Same here.

    Then she picked up on "What-what?" from our daughter. 2 of them doing that put me over the edge.

    I put an end to that w both of them - although the habit was hard to break.

    We do the “heard chef”, or “yes chef” Gordon Ramsey style in our house. If you don’t get a “heard chef” reply it did not happen and was not heard. I do add baby chef or mommy chef sometimes. I have partial hearing loss in one ear from a winery accident, and a earbud often in the other when just roaming house/garage/winery doing chores and such. It works very well but is wierd for guests or tasting room customers to hear for the first time. I sometimes add do you need a follow up question or... Also love “action item preferred” when lady speak gets in the way. “The garbage is almost full”, “ok so is that an action item to take garbage out?”, if so why not just say it!

    If were watching a movie and someone starts talking(usually a guest as mine are trained) i just keep raising the volume. We call out “pause” then can speak once the media is paused.

    The pillows and clean dish for everything have me cooking and doing the dishes most days to keep from 2 dishwasher loads a day. Like every plate, pan, silverware we own has to get used every day! I hand wash a lot and just pull from dish drainer for next meal. Instead of putting them all away just to take them out. There are 3 of us.

    If company is over shell load dishwasher and claim she did the dishes. Um there still dirty in the AM so i run it and put them away, wtf?
    Drink to remember not to forget!

    My wife insists on putting aluminum foil on the tray that goes in the toaster oven, so that theoretically the pan doesn't have to be washed.. For some reason this tray is different than all the other pots and pans we wash after using. Food sticks to the aluminum foil. Aluminum foil isn't free. Stuff gets under the foil and bakes hard on the pan (which is non stick btw). Why does she do this? Because her mother did it.

    I do that because the non stick coating on mine is chipping off and I don’t want to eat that.
    I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.

    A nice thing to say to her might be: “You’re acting just like your Mom”, in a nice condescending tone.
    Well maybe I'm the faggot America

    Yes, but he's also going to be sleeping in his car for a while, which will suck.

    I know most of the ER docs at one of the hospitals here (including wife's brother), so none.
