Celebrating 9 years of poor spilling and no good grammar

Today marks 5 years of marriage to my favourite wife.

When we were first married we often used to say to each other how being married wasn’t all that different to being best buddies onnly now Jenny didn’t have to drop me home at the end of each day. Thankfully that is still the case, we have no desire to live in separate houses.

Being married is pretty fun, and I think we do an allright job at it. We laugh a lot, we don’t really fight. Well he have disagreements and sometimes our rage at each other gets soo intense that it can be up to 30 seconds after something angry making has happened for one of us to offer the other one a drink or make some witty comment.

I guess everyone does conflict differently we aren’t very good at it and don’t really want to learn.

Most of all we are buddies, we enjoy hanging out just as much as we did in the flirting days. Simple things make us happy like jenny bringing me home a bottle of coke or me remembering to bring the washing in. (both of these are rare occurrences, which is why they are so special when they do happen).

Jenny I love you and stuff.

5th Anniversary’s are ‘wood’ . you know like how others are paper, and gold and stuff. I’m not sure when the itunes one is but I’m excited about that one when it comes.

To fit with the wooden theme I made Jenny a little gift.

I got a bit of wood from under the house (thanks Keith). Carved out a little bit, got a plaque made, stained the wood and stuck the plaque in the hole I made.

’5 YEARS

Wooden have it any other way’

She better like it because I hurt my finger pretty bad making the damn thing. Not in a masculine way like ripping off a fingernail with a chisel or something. No I hurt it by getting it jammed in a hinge on my folding work bench when setting it up.

Welcome to Anal DVD, how can I help you.

With that title you may think I’m about to talk abut the latest scandal involving a politician and a nightclub, but I’m not.

Jenny and I are both anal when it comes to filing of DVD’s and CD’s.

For me this is not a new thing that is a result of being married.

When I lived with Tom and his family Tom and I used to regularly spend time arranging the household CD’s into alphabetical order, After a while Tom’s mum even went and purchased special CD drawers to aid the tidy and appropriate storage of music.

The system worked well, It was always a cinch to find the CD you where looking fo, well I say always actually it wasn’t always so easy. Sometimes people who where not trained or people who had issues with the authoritarian natures of the CD placement would come and visit. Mainly Gem and Mil.

After the above named had visited it was then the task of myself and Tom to search through the carnage and rearrange into the appropriate and acceptable order. Until we discovered that after these visits this was not the only abomination, not only where CD’s out of order but CD’s where not in their respective case. So if I was searching for powderfinger internationalis, I would find the case and open it only to discover Luke Vasella instead.

They where traumatic times.

Now several years later I married a lady that shares my passion for alphabetised bliss.

Tonight we embarked a new journey together, We not only have our DVD’s in order but we now have them in 4 different categories too.

The categories are

Films
TV Shows
Stand Up
Music

It was a special time we shared together tonight.

trying to pick something to watch

Wife: “It’s too dark I can’t see the DVD’s”

Me: “turn the light on”

Wife: “I don’t need the light on”

yes dear

I often get in trouble from my wife for leaving lights on in rooms i’m not occupying.

Last night I was about to walk up the stairs to go and say good night to wife and I thought ‘Oh i should turn the lights off, that will make jenny happy’. So I turned around and turned the lights off then went upstairs.

Jenny came out of the bathroom and said ‘What did you turn the lights off for, you’ll fall down the stairs”

Today celebrates 2 years of me having a wife.

2 years of clean undies, socks and other clothing items.

2 years of meals not prepaired by me

2 years of fun adventures

on the other side of the coin, 2 years of next to no frozen meals.

I think i can handle a few more years of having a wife though.

The problem with marrige

your not allowed to wake up late, then go back to bed after your shower and head into work an hour or so late.

Thats one thing i miss from the old days, not being accountable or reliable, actually i used to be reliable, reliably late that is.

the flip side is that i really love my wife.

Women are like SUV’s

they require a lot of fuel to carry out their day to day tasks.

Luckily women are more environmentally friendly than the petrol guzzling suv’s driving around in the city. women run on hugs and good behaviour from their partners.

I’f i’m naughty, forgetful, or dont want to do something the woman begins to run low on fuel, thus resulting in groans from the engine and backfires from the mouth.

normally a few litres of hugs and an apology fills the tank again and she can get back to the laundry.

revelation

it would be fare to say that jenny is my favourite wife

Written on September 15th, 2006 , marital bliss

oh so romantic

last night when jenny and i got to our hotel thanks to tom and the hannah van.

We went up to our room and i got out lappy and hooked him up to the hotel broadband. $24.95 for one nights boradband. a little steep but important so we got it.

Its the slowest damn internet i have ever used, firefox keeps timing out casue its taking so long to open pages.

back to last night for all of you who want to know the details.

after hooking up the slow, unreliable broadband we put the tv on to watch the swans, feeling hungry and my throat being so sore and my nose full of snot we went to woolies to buy some strepsils and dinner, pita bread sliced ham and sliced cheese, oh and a little bottle of orange juice.

then it was back to the hotel for a hearty meal of ham and cheese sandwiches,

the swans won!

then shower and a very patchy bad sleep, for some reason there was someone else in the damn bed that kept moving, but not just moving the other person also was quite good and making sure i had no sheets or blankets.

woke up early feeling seedy, full of snot my voice sounds like barry white.

we just got back from having breakfast down in the hotel eating place.

i should post this before the internet times out again.
