just one of those days

Like the title says, its one of those days for me, my wife was giving me sh!t today, because I spend to much money on my car, and why not, I pay the bills, pay for the house the car payments are paid by me and me alone, and were talking about two Yaris her LB and my sedan. This all came about cuz I make like what to pay notes and found that I ll be doing more shopping with MI, so she caught a fit, and I m like F U women I do what I want with my money, thats why I work, its not all paying bills, you are intitled to splerg some on yourself right? Well she calmed down after I took her cloths shopping, shes good. I hope there someone who can relate with this topic. Holla at me.

Hmm... maybe you guys need to sit down and write it all down on a piece of paper. It sounds like a pain in the @ss but it's actually pretty easy. I did it with the ex BF once when he was whining about money on a trip, and once you put everything down on a piece of paper, you can see exactly where money goes and who's spending what. No more fighting about who's spending what.

So, you allow for yourself $.... for you to blow on car stuff, and an equal amount of $..... for her to blow on whatever she wants, X is for the house, Y is for this or that, and Z goes into a savings. Don't forget the savings part.

Even if you're the only one making money, it helps minimize fighting when you both know where the money is going.

Don't fight, ain't worth it, fighting never ends , just sit down and say OK, this is what we're gonna do (of course, you decide together)

Remember the golden rule, though, if mama ain't happy, nobody' happy, know what I'm sayin'

My significant other does the same thing, although month by month she spends more of the disposable income and wants to eat out all the time. Hell I had to say I won the spoiler (although I got a killer deal, a $400 spoiler for $80 shipped) and my mechanic "found" the perfect 1zz TB in his shop for me. No my lying isn't right, but if I were to write down income, bills, x amount she spends and x amount I spend I'd be the ass throwing it in her face. And I'm the one bringing in ALL the money. Trust me if it wasn't for the 2nd car payment & insurance and her fancy phone I'd have mine paid off with a crapload more mods done (like tint, supercharger, trans swap, etc.) Thats my rant for the day.

looks like the two of you could use a joke ... here goes



A husband, tired of his wife asking him how she looks, buys her a full length mirror. This does little to help, as now she just stands in front of the mirror, looking at herself, asking him how she looks. One day, fresh out of the shower, she is yet again in front of the mirror, now complaining that her breasts are too small.

The husband comes up with a suggestion. "If you want your breasts to grow, then every day take a piece of toilet paper, and rub it between your breasts for a few seconds."

Willing to try anything, the wife fetches a piece of toilet paper, and stands in front of the mirror, rubbing it between her breasts. "How long will this take?" she asks.

"They'll grow larger over a period of years," he replies.

The wife stops. "Why do you think rubbing a piece of toilet paper between my breasts every day will make my breasts grow over the years?"

The husband shrugs. "Why not, it worked for your ass, didn't it?"

ahem.. you should know that if you say that ^ to your significant other in anger, you're probably never getting any again

(I feel for you, though. My mom was a huge nag. )
