The "how to drive the new vehicle properly" is especially endearing to me. Not that I have a hybrid. But one thing you just can't tell a man, even if he is your long-suffering husband, is how to drive.

He feels compelled to deliver a running commentary on the inferiority of other drivers on the roa and I just.want.him.to.shut.up.and.drive.To me, crappy drivers are a fact of life and unless they do something especially egregious, they don't deserve commentary. I bet you're not surprised that I also can't stand sports commentators who just move their lips to hear the sound of their own voices, or worse, SHOUT ABOUT EVERYTHING. Shut.up.<BR/><BR/>And my husband is also the tightly coiled spring of movement--snaps his head up off the pillow if he thinks he's heard a noise in the night, vaults out of bed when the alarm goes off as if he's starting a race, and always walking three or more steps ahead of me so I look like a third-world woman respectfully trailing her husband at a distance. All I need is a burka.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I'm all sweet and nice and easy to live with and my marriage is FINE, just FINE.Veronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377646342103238788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-19495381507982197342007-12-13T15:26:00.000-05:002007-12-13T15:26:00.000-05:00Oh no, this sounds so like me.
