My wife...

digitalscream

Two stories from today.

The first one begins this morning, with her waking me up (no, it's not that kind of story).

"I'm really sorry, I had a dream that I had an affair."
"Go back to sleep, it was just a dream."
"No, that's not what I'm apologising about. It was...it...was...a bass player."
"Get out."
"I know...I'll make breakfast..."

The second story...she's having a rough time, and we're not spending much time together at the moment. So I have a suggestion:

"You know what we should do?"
"What?"
"We should both take a week off and just chill. Not for a holiday, just...spending time together."
"What are we going to do? Is there a series on Netflix we can binge-watch?"
"...."

Is "Binge-Watch" the follow up to "Baywatch", if so, I'll come and watch it with you both?

WezV

Sounds like a Netflix and chill offer.  The kids tell me that's a thing

You're a musician, with a wife. Stop boasting!

ennspek

At least you didn't suggest you spend the time playing Tekken!

Duvet days are great.....Duvet week bit of a challenge but that's what those little blue pills are for

That ship's long-since sailed. I don't even know where that Playstation is, if we even have it any more

I am too.

But I'm not much of a musician to be honest. I'm probably not much of a husband either.

A "Netflix and chill" offer sounds good, for you and your wife that is

Im a musician with a wife too. She just hasn't lived here for the past 13 months

My wife is a drummer - does that count?

If she's a drummer, shouldn't she be doing the counting?

She does indeed - but I'm trying to train her to be guitar blind so she doesn't count them

I used to buy gig bags and once they'd been in the house long enough not to be noticed anymore...

Not sure what that says about my life.

My wife is a bassist. :-)

We should get our respective other halves to form a band... it would get them out the house for a bit

Sounds like a plan.

It depends how you want this too play out... a week off on a perpetual duvet day, be sure that there'll be another mini-human in the offing and even less time together. Or, you accidentally get 'confused' about the dates and book the wrong week. As a result you have that week off to yourself getting re-aquatinted with that PlayStation. :-)
