    You will learn, young Grasshopper

    This is an online comic I try to keep up with. Today's is hilarious since I can remember having these type conversations when we were first married.

    After 41 years of marriage, we still have that type of conversation. I'm always amazed at how a woman's mind works. The subject can be changed so fast, you never know what hit you.

        I've learned how to tell if why she is mad at me is actually my fault. If it isn't, I just let her be angry. She always comes and apologizes if it isn't.

              You know how you can tell when its your fault?




              It's your fault whenever they open their mouths to speak.

                It helps to pay attention to nature. One out of four weeks behavior may be less rational. Cut her some extra slack in that time, and everybody will be happier!

                  Can't blame that anymore. According to a series of news articles this weekend it is now optional to have The big "P".

                      After 37 years, I've never heard one.

                      Oops - I forgot - it's my fault.

                        Correction - everything is your fault if you let it be. I can tell when things are really my fault and when she just wants them to be. I've learned to ignore the latter and she has learned to stop yelling since its no fun when I ignore her. I will listen to her talk about what is bothering her but won't let it be my fault.
