H has driven all night to be here to go with to take boys to first day of school. He's not exactly charming, but NMFP, as I am always kind, courteous, and down right awesome no matter the circumstance. Near f*ckin perfect, too. LOL
So, he has been having this issue w/his back, and our mattress literally hurting him so much that he is walking odd. We switch to D18's old mattress to see if it helps. He puts a SLED (LOLOL) under his half, to see if hit helps. Finally, he sleeps on the floor NEXT to the bed, and says it is better.
OK... long story longer...
So, he looks at mattresses. The one he wants is $3k. "Im not spending $3k on a mattress." (This, coming from a man that has about $200k in toys sitting around house... OK?) MB, "Whatever makes you happy, Dear, as I'm sleeping like a baby."

I go online, find the damned mattress, and it comes w/a 90-day trial, where you pay the shipping $300, and if you like it, they bill you the cost of the mattress. If you don't, they come and get it. Sounds reasonable?
H comes in this am, after kids are at school, and he's had a 45 min nap. "I saw your email about the mattress. Did you even read the fine print? Why would I want to pay $300 to try a mattress for 90-days? Obviously you just forwarded it without consideration."
I said... "Listen, (silently - [censored])H, YES, I considered it. If you are truly in pain, you would, too. If not, I get the fact that it's a way of further distancing yourself from me. It doesn't take a f*cking genious to get it. Figure it out, or not. Just don't complain to me, or brush off my efforts. Not interested."
We go to lunch, have a great time w/BFF, the kids and D18's best boy friend.
H calls as I'm walking in the door afterwards.
"Can you get me the number of that "Mattress Company"?
MB: "I'd love to. I'll txt it to you when I'm free."
(I WANTED TO SAY... "Sure, It's 1-800-GOF*CKYOURSELF!")
Sorry, the F bomb is a staple today.
OK, bye.

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
