My husband is an idiot.

We are about to go on our first vacation in nine months. And yet, even the last one shouldn't count because it was really a two week recruitment trip I invited myself along on. So to be fair, this is our first vacation in two years and today is the day my husband is an idiot.

This puzzles me because his higher reasoning skills are perfectly functional. Why then, would someone be 30 minutes late on the day they are going on vacation?

You see, my husband is in the army and the army effectively owns your ass. At any point in time a Sergeant can take away your right to live a.k.a. your ability to drive, the time you have at home with your family, your self-respect until you choose to conform or until they aren't in a pissy mood anymore.

You would think that knowing this would cause someone to NOT wake up in the morning, sit down in his easy chair and not wake back up until after morning formation.

But you would be wrong.

You see..

My husband is an idiot.

But that is a somewhat boring and self-serving topic. Over-all our relationship is doing better. My husband discovered anti-depressants last week and I have discovered therapeutic cleaning. Our house is happy.

Our sex life is awesome! The drugs keep him from finishing (ever) so we can go 3-4 hours now. Nice little cardio. Sucks for him but I don't care quite yet. He should know what it feels like to go to bed playing with himself and sexually frustrated. Even more beautiful is that they don't shut down his sex drive and since he's never able to "express himself" he just follows me around like a little puppy waiting to cup a boob. I love Paxil.

I think possibly a portion of our marriage problems stem from trying to get pregnant. It's frustrating, and I'm still in denial about most of it. The parts I'm not in denial about are all his fault. Just like eeeeeeeeeeverything else.

Which brings me back to the damn chair incident. I just got his text. I guess he got away with it - again. I'm not surprised. He is pretty cute.
