It would be wise to tell me your father was coming in from PA a day early... and even wiser to tell me estimated time of arrival was 3 a.m. this morning.

 

When your panel beeps and says "garage door" at 3am... you bet your a** I was up and armed before wife knew what was going on. I didnt make it out of the bedroom before she let me in on her little secret, but im damn sure shes going to let me in on up-to-date arrival times of our guests from now on.

 

 

On the lighter side, she was impressed at the response from me had it been a real occurrence, but now at least she knows that things like this need to be communicated properly.

 

 

Just figured id share my fun filled morning with you gents

 

-SMH-

that definelty would not have been a 'good friday' if she didn't wake up........enjoy your company

After you made a boot print on his t-shirt & uncuffed him, I bet it was real awkward drinking OJ at the breakfast table later on....

Ha... I went back to bed as she went down to greet him. Since I was out for work at 6 this morning there was no discussion. Im sure it will make for a fun filled Easter dinner this year

Why TF did he show up at 0300?

Why TF did he show up at 0300?

My thoughts exactly.

Now THAT'S a wake up call!!

 

C

Who stops by at 3am

Imagine if you did that to your wife? That seems incredibly inconsiderate to say the least, not mentioning it to you.

Why TF did he show up at 0300?

 

My grandpops used to do that all the time. But he would sleep out in the driveway in his conversion van. He didn't like driving on congested roads for long trips!

 

He always brought DD coffee and donuts with him though, so it was cool!

Maybe she was testing your abilities

My wife's parents come down for the weekends/week for holidays and such... since the ride is almost 3 hours its not uncommon for them to have dinner, and leave around 9pm to avoid traffic. 12 am arrivals are a usual. 3am wouldnt have bothered me a bit if I was expecting him. In this case I was not which is a mistake im sure to have corrected after this morning .

Well, she definitely owes you a second SBJ Day, now! Or, some other favor, but she owes you BIG for pulling that. Perhaps you can save it for when you need a big "get out of jail free" card to pull later?

"Get out of jail free" cards do not work with women. When it comes to women, You are wrong, always.

I have accrued hundreds of GOOJF cards in my relationship over the years... too bad I can never remember:

 

A. To redeem said card when I am in trouble.

B. When called to recount incident for appropriation of said card, provide sufficient detail.

C. Above all else, it doesnt matter youre in the doghouse.
