My friend ended up in the emergency room the other day. Doctor said he got some irregular heart palpitations and was much better after some treatment... They told him it was stress related. Guess what? His wife is a huge nag, and would you just know every time she opened her mouth I was reading some counter related to the irregular rhythms they had on him and the number went higher and higher, and when she'd quit yapping it went down again.

I told him he definitely needs a divorce. She didn't think it was funny.

I'm not a doctor but...

Wife texted me to tell me that our daughter wanted to check out the Halloween store after she gets off work at 7:00. I asked if she was going to pick up the daughter after she’s done teaching Tae Kwon Do or if I needed to pick up the daughter. Wife then calls me because “it was too difficult to answer over text” & then went into a 15 minute explanation of what the daughter was doing, that some friends were supposed to bring their kid to class but if they didn’t, she would have to drop something off at their house and then blah, blah, blah...

After she was done I asked her again what the plan was, “I’ll just call you back around 7:30.”

We’ve been married for 21 years, you’d think that she’d realize that if she hasn’t gotten to the point in the first 2 minutes, I’ve already tuned her out.

Mrs. Cusser is doing a national dog agility event right now, but only 8 miles from our house. Yesterday she went there twice to set up, starts today and runs through Saturday. Don't most of these people have jobs? Seems like most have these large RVs for travel and to keep Fluffy cool during the waiting periods. A high percentage of these participants are lesbians or never-married women, their dogs are their "children". And there are events pretty much every weekend, even Thanksgiving and Christmas, for many this is their whole life.

Anyway, Mrs. Cusser seems to have "the need" to tell me how many dogs are there, how many are border collies, only four cocker spaniels like hers. There is a team even and they named her team "Dogs without Borders" which I didn't understand was a joke about so many border collies there. Apparently border collies are fast and good at this, so if someone's life goal is to get a good showing, that's the dog they get.

Mrs. Cusser feels the responsibility to tell me about stuff like Snooker or Grand Prix there, and if the dog led into a jump with his left foot or right foot, like I would know the difference. I guess this fills her need to talk about something since the kids are "grown up" and have real jobs and don't live with us....I don't have the need to tell her what I did playing senior softball, and especially not what others there that she doesn't know did; I don't know the intricate details of their lives, their religions, their kids, their financial status, but she knows all this about all her friends and her friends' kids....

One good thing about certain bedtime activities is that some prevent her from talking....

A few years back the house next to us had a pair of skunks under the front porch that brought out a litter every summer. They were a hoot to watch at dusk hunting dew worms on the lawn and apart from the odd disagreement with stray dogs over the garbage cans in the alley they really never bothered anyone.

Then our neighbor sold the place to a young couple with a Doberman. Shortly after in the twilight she spotted a "cat" on the front lawn and set the dog out the deal with it.

"What do I do?" She blubbered over the phone to her husband at work.

"The first thing to do," He said "is get that dog out of the house!"

My hearing is not bad enough to need hearing aids yet but I already have the sirens! Some days worse than others.

Or was that the wife again...

[Cusser]

The married guys here will nod their heads, and relate 100%.

Mrs. Cusser went to the grocery store yesterday. I got home from being at my place up north on Monday afternoon, Mrs. Cusser shows me a 3-inch piece of clear plastic, and says "it broke off the refrigerator bin".

I open up the refrigerator and see where Mrs. Cusser has crammed a long hunk of celery into the crisper bin, was several inches too long so it couldn't close, and there's something not fitting in the right corner which broke off the corner of the acrylic/polysterene bin, either by trying to force it, or closing the door on it when the bin/drawer obviously was not closed properly, see un-staged photo below. By the way, she has busted this before, and replacement upper crisper bin in like $75 shipped, and the lower one is no longer available. And Mrs. Cusser is no dummy, has master's degree, but she sure gets pi$$ed off when she can't get things to work, that's for sure.

*******************************
Why can't Mrs. Cusser EVER hang this chair correctly on the two hooks, so it doesn't hang down and rest on my VW Convertible????
Instead of this http://www.mazdatrucking.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=3215&d=1547749449.jpg

Like this; that's what the 2nd hook is for !!!!

My ex could break anything just by touching it. The custom shift knob on my bus was there for years and not once did it come loose on me while daily driving, but six blocks to the store and back .... "there's something wrong with the shifter".

I've had to repair towel bars coming loose from the wall several times - not mine, but hers and the kids. When I asked if she was yanking down on the towel to get it off the towel rack, she assured me she wasn't. Well, another one came lose from the wall. And on the lower portion of the wall where the towel bar rests against the wall, it was indented - like a smile. I showed it to her and asked how the wall got indented - "I don't know." I had to remind her and the kids that you have to be gentle with things in life, including towel bars.

Now instead of fixing it, she wants it moved to the back of the door.

I think my family could tear up a steel marble.

Mrs. Cusser ruined the sheet linoleum squares in the bathroom of my old town house, because she'd get the floor soaking wet, ruined the adhesive. That floor had lasted 6 years fine before her, yet she claims not her fault. At least we have tile near the current shower.

Mrs. Cusser has backed up into at least 4 vehicles, 2 in parking lots and my 1979 Toyota truck (2 days after moving in 1988) and my 1998 Frontier. Apparently she doesn't turn her head when backing up "because dad told me just to use the mirrors", she sure knows the meaning of stubborn. Did I mention that she has backed into a giant saguaro cactus on the DRIVER'S side at least twice and broken mirrors ???

I replaced a burnt-out brake light for her yesterday, mentioned that I check mine about once a month. She asked how, I said to check reflection in vehicle behind her at a traffic light !!! And similar for turn signals.

And maybe Mrs. Cusser is just "really unlucky" with vehicles, as 95% of the on-road mishaps have been while she's driving, maybe she's just oblivious (Mark Tucker: look that up) to abnormal changes in sound, driveability, etc...

My wife backed into another car while depending solely on the back up camera. Car was less than a year old and she paid the owner 1000 dollars so as not to report the accident. There have been other automotive occurrences through the years but in the big scheme of things she has other redeeming qualities which outweigh the perceived negatives. The biggest thing though is she has put up with my shit for years so it’s a toss up. Maybe just to even it up I’ll give her the old Dutch oven treatment. Girls like that.
