The Diaries

My husband and I were driving (hence the pic -->; I crack me up...)

When I received an email from my mom. I just got a new smartphone, so this is still exciting to me. I opened the email and started to read. It was a forward, so I thought it would be funny. It was so sad though. It detailed a common story of a wife's feelings, that I think we can all relate to. I really felt for the wife in the story. Then I reached the end, and I burst out laughing! Grizzly had me read it to him. He looked sincerely puzzled as to why I laughed so hard. Once I reached the end of the story, he got it. He laughed hysterically. I thought you might appreciate this:

Wife's Diary: Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong; He said, 'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior I don't know why he didn't say, 'I love you, too.' When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster. Husband's Diary: Boat wouldn't start; can't figure it out. It's all about perspective, and I think we should all reread this from time to time.
