So last week, much to my surprise, my wife sat with me and watched a football game. We cheered our beloved Chiefs onto victory while dining on chicken wings and nachos and of course, a few beers.
Saturday morning she asked if the Chiefs were playing this weekend, if they were on TV and if I would be watching.
I told her yes they were playing, yes , we pay extra money to the cable company for them to be on TV, and of course I’d be watching.
Well she says, last week was really exciting, can I watch with you again? And just in case I was thinking of saying no (which I’d never do) she throws in, I’ll even run out and buy the munchies and stuff. What a bargain!!!!
So, I make her a list to go to the various stores with, and off she goes. She had nothing on the list, saying that she wanted healthier snacks to watch the game with.
Instead of chicken wings, she bought celery and carrots, instead of a frozen pizza, she bought three different kinds of cheese, instead of beer, she bought a bottle of wine.
Not wanting to hurt her feelings, I told her it all looks great, and I’d be quite content to eat and drink what she brought.
But alas…she just went to the gym, and forgot her bank card, I’m off to get proper food. And as for my wife, I’m pretty sure she has some Christmas shopping to do next Sunday.
