I'm afraid I'm starting to turn into one of those grumpy old men. I was taking my wife some orange juice as she's lying in bed. There's about a foot and a half space between the wall and her side of the bed. As I'm walking between the space, my wife said, "I'm cold, watch out for the electric blanket I put onto the bed." As I walk closer, my foot get's caught up into this big ball of spider web of wires about the size of a socker ball. I almost tripped and fell. She said, "I TOLD you to watch out for the electric blanket..!" Actually, I was watching the electric blanket the whole time, but I was looking at it on the bed. Now I can't figure out if I should be mad at her or not..
Question is would getting mad at her provide anything useful. having been married 36 years myself, i'd have to say nothing good could come of making an issue of this.
And after 39 years nothing good comes from not pissing them off either so at least if you piss them off they don't talk so there is a significant benefit
Actually, my wife never stops talking. And she has this habit of starting her sentences in the middle, going to the end, then starts the beginning, and ends at the middle. So your completely confused at what she is saying, until she's done, and then you have to figure out exactly what she meant.
