Wife Compliments My Driving!

[BE Mike]

Yesterday (Easter) while driving the speed limit (70 mph), on the interstate, in the right hand lane, a couple of vehicles came up on my left. It was an extreme incident of road rage. The rear vehicle was following the other just inches off the rear bumper of the other. The lead vehicle was speeding up and then putting on the brakes. Both were screaming and making obscene gestures. As soon as I realized what was going on, I put on my right turn signal and pulled off the road to the shoulder and stopped. In a minute, when the vehicles were long gone, I put on my left blinker and pulled back on the interstate and continued for home. After we got everyone home (I was loaded down with relatives), I got an "attaboy" from the wifey.

You are the man! Maybe she will gladly repeat it so it can be recorded and replayed when necessary??

Thanks for getting out of my way!!!

Actually, we've been enjoying the lesser known state roads for our drives of late. Seems like nobody uses them anymore. Only adds 10 minutes to our 2hr drive and gives me a chance to become familiar with evacuation options at the same time.

There's bathrooms on the interstate as well.

My Wife hates my driving. Something about not running every stoplight annoys her. Even with all the speeding she does, she is still always late.

In other breaking news, the US Government agrees to stop spending money it doesn't have and NPR admits it has been biased all along...

Watch out....she wants something

Watch out....she wants something

I dunno, we bought her a new dishwasher just before Easter. What else could she want?

can't remember the last time i got an "attaboy" from the wife. i'd even settle for a "not too bad". and i think we were still in college the last time she did while i was driving.

Hopefully a new ironing board and a skillet to fix your breakfast in(idea from Walter Williams)

I found out that you can have a 1000 "attaboy"..... and 1 "oh no" will wipes that slate clean

It goes both ways guys... we ladies don't always nag. Do you always say Thank you when we do something nice too?

Glad she appreciated your smart driving and getting all the relatives home safe.

 

[Hotdoger]

My wife won't drive with me in the car.

Guess my complaining about her speeding and speeding tickets gets to her.

Maybe instead of the Kitchenaid dishwasher, she is campaigning for one about 6'2", blond, named Sven, who has bodybuilding as a hobby.
