Somebody SMACK that woman!!!!
I have just a few days before hubby arrives.....on the 12th of June....2 am. My BIL will be going to get him. I've been asking myself a few questions.......
*am I looking forward to this visit?
*do I trust my husband?
*do I think he'll be lying to me some more?
*can I live with that?
*what exactly CAN I live with??
and oooohhhhh so much more.
Now for something interesting. For 5 yrs now, I 've been living in Egypt....and I always go to the same supermarket to buy sandwich meats, cheese, etc. Today is the first time EVER that I actually spoke to the guy at the deli counter. He knows me when he sees me....and is always quick to say....1 kg cheddar cheese, Madame?? And I either say yes or no. But today...I ordered a KG of smoked chicken sandwich meat....which costs $35 LE.......when he finished slicing it all.....the total price was $35.75.......and he asked me if that was okay....so for a change....I said no it wasn't....can u please take off a slice.....AND HE WAS GOING TO....but I told him....I'm just kidding. It took him a second to clue in.....OMG the woman is talking to me....she's making a joke....and actually acknowledging my existance??????? (I'll blame it on the water, okay UmmAbdurrahman?) I don't know what got into me....I sure shocked the heck outta the guy......but I suppose I felt that I needed a giggle. (Which I did in the car)
So anyways my daaahhhlings.....I've got to organize the crib, and organize and ummmm....oh ya......organize. Wash laundry and make this please look tip top before hubby arrives. I brought all my carpets over to the villa to let my maid wash them.....poor thing.....and tomorrow will pick them up...as well as drop all my DH's clothes over to the drycleaners to be pressed and folded better than I could ever do it.......I bought my face cream....hair dye....new razor and wax.......so I think that covers me. If I think of anything....don't worry I'll be posting it........

ha ha, when you said 'my BIL is going to get him', it called to mind kids in the playground asking their older sibling to beat up a bully. freudian or what!!
face cream, razor, sandwich meat... what a lucky guy. but don't forget the pre-written speech and page worth of questions. bind and gag him, and make him listen. x

I think a few jokes make us more human.
I have no idea what I would say to my husband face to face in a similar situation. I don't think talking would be involved. Knives, perhaps arsenic, would be involved, but no talking.

OH yeah and ummm
SMACK SMACK SMACK

I beg to differ Umabdurrahman.....I spelled "please" perfectly correct. If anything, you only caught a grammar error.....I'll give you .5 a point. HAHA about BIL gonna GET HIM!! Nawww......they all love him too much to get him for silly ole me. I'll have to do that on my own....knives, arsenic?? Hmmmmm....making a note in my journal. Pre-written speech? You sure don't have a lot of experience with arabic men.....after the first 2 minutes in...all they hear is Blah blah blah. You gotta just say IT! 5 words or less to make it thru all that BRAIN!

actually, you're quite right about the 'mute' button these arab men have in their ears. plus in my experience, as soon as any tears escape from my frustrated eyes, it's "now you're being irrational and emotional and I'm not going to listen to you", despite the fact that my brain is working just fine, it's only my head leaking. hmm!

What kinda joke is that? Get your priorities straight. If you are mad that he mistreated you, don’t act like an ever pleasing low life.
What husband would mind a clean house, good food, and a waxed and shaved wife for a month before going back to another waxed wife and clean house? Men are mistreating women because women like you act spinelessly.
You sure need a smack!

Go Wendy! These blogs makes me want to make an intire site about them. I should call it wwww.howdumbcanyouget.com
Safa, you are not a strong woman, you are a woman sitting on your a** in Egypt watching your kids hurt while you sob like a child,he left you there cos its the cheapest place to put you lot who do not fit into his life anymore. Wax away girlie, job well done in this life. Sheesh, I would embarrased to show my lazy ass up like this. I feel sorry for your kids who are the victims of your masochism.

I was thinking maybe next time letting my hair grow and doing little tiny braids on my pubes.......makes life more interesting.....you could call me a "rasta HO".......excuse me while I crawl back to the bottom of the trash can where all the nasty stuff is.........sheesh
