Fridays are the worst!!!
I'm tired of the bs of being a BS. I want my life back! I want to have some good times and I'm tired of dealing with this ZOMBIE of a WW. She's depressed suffering from withdrawal so guess what I get to do? Nothing, be supportive while she zips and saps in and out of FOGLAND!

I feel like throwing in the towel. I know it's just my frustration talking, but I feel like throwing in the towel and hitting her in the head with it. Come on lets live our lives. How about a smile, a huge, some signs of affection. I'm tired of being neglected. I don't deserve this crap! I'm not such a bad H or a bad father or a bad person in general that I should have to go thru this. I miss happy times, and if my name wasn't family matters I'd go hang out with some pretty women who'd appreciate me and have a few drinks and forget all of this drama.

I know it's wrong, but this is really getting old!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHH!

Well your name is FamilyMatters, so what are ya gonna do. Come to MB and rant, until the fog lifts, thats what.

I don't understand living with a fogger, the whole fog stuff... but can't you just take the kids to a sitter, pick up some beer or wine, and some good movies? Would that lift her spirits? Or maybe go out with her just the two of you? Or is she not in the mood for any of that stuff.

I don't know, from what I read when the fog lifts she will be back and then some.

Hang in there guy, you turn will come when she pays attention to you again.

For now just chill - keep ranting here.

FM, try not to express your frustration at her annoying moods directly at her. Do something to give her comfort, give her something she likes to drink or a pillow or some such thing, and get outta there. You know what time it is - it's fog time. Go do some chores or do something you like to do that won't lay a guilt trip on her.

So here's my favorite joke. I don't know why, but I love it.

A guy and his dog go into a bar. The bartender asks, "What'll you have?" The guy orders a beer, asks the dog whatcha want, and the dog asks for some water. The guy lays a fiver on the bar, says to the dog, "Give this to the bartender when he brings the drinks, I gotta go to the john."

The guy comes back from the men's room and the dog is gone, the bartender looks annoyed, and the money is gone. The bartender sorta gestures toward the door, and the guy goes and looks out to the street. There's the dog, making love to another dog. The guy says, "What are you doing, you dumb dog? You never acted this way before." The dog says, "Yeah, and you never gave me five dollars before."

Go figure. Gray likes this joke.

A duck walks into the bar and asks the bartender if he has any grapes. The bartender says no I don't have any grapes. So the duck leaves.

The next night the duck goes back to the bar and asks the bartender if he has any grapes. The bartender says no, I don't have any grapes. So the duck leaves.

And the next the duck goes back to the bar and asks the bartender if he has any grapes, and the the bartender says NO, I DON'T HAVE ANY GRAPES & if you ask me again I'm going to nail your feet to the floor. So the duck leaves.

The following night the duck goes back to the bar and asks the bartender if he has any nails, and the bartender says no, I don't have any nails. So the ducks says well do you have any grapes then. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hi FM,

Fridays are the worst. WH will not allow me to fill his recreation EN because he does not want to have fun with me. I suggest things, but keep getting turned down. My favorite is "I'll go to the movies with OW, but not with you." My first solution was I went to the movies by myself, but I did ask him to go along--he refused. My second solution to that is now I bring the movies home to him and we watch them. Also when he is alone on the computer, I put on some CD's we sit listen to music together. Also right now we are watching a baseball game which we both like.

How about going out for ice cream? Everyone likes that. I had to ease into some good times so maybe this will help you. Hang in there and keep trying. Better days are just ahead.

How about I whip up one of my prize winning pecan pies!!!

Fog blows but I can't imagine the pain you are going through. I mean I can and I feel for you. Here you are watching your wife get over someone else!

Ugh, what my hubby went through...

Why don't we do this. I'll make the pie, weaver or brown gets the ice cream. What the heck, how about a beer afterwards. We'll sit down, play some poker, smoke cigars (I hope you don't mind if I smoke) and we will have our own MB poker party!!!

Oh Chackler, I just love pecan pie and playing poker. In fact I have a change jar I can bring. Of course you probably have poker chips, heh?
