Thank you for a big chuckle. Adorable and we love them anyway. I sometimes think woman's language is so confusing to them that they have to tune us out to survive. If we spoke in sports analogies or gave some sort of medals, maybe we would be more successful. I tell people that my husband listens to everything I say. They immediately picture a hen-pecked man and start to feel sorry for the poor sap. Then I add, "he listens to everything I say and then promptly ignores it all." And yet we still adore each other 28 years later.accidentaltourist says,
