Spent another pleasant evening with WH watching the Liam Neeson movie "Taken," about a divorced former CIA agent who reluctantly gives permission to his 17 year old daughter to go to Paris with a friend - where they're both kidnapped for the sex trade the first day they're there. Neeson is on the phone with his daughter when they come for her. Very exciting, very suspenseful.
Asked WH throughout how he would handle various situations if this happened to one of our daughters. That's all it took. WH is an armchair action hero (aka Monday morning QB) and the stuff he comes up with really cracks me up sometimes! When one of the bad guys in the movie got away and I said it was because he was 20 years younger than Neesom, WH got VERY offended - "I'M in better shape than most guys 1/2 my age (true). I can still do a lot of damage at 47."
And I was thinking, "Yep. You've nearly decimated your entire family without lifting a finger."
I've already decided I will not sit with him again for a few more nights. He needs to miss the companionship. Besides, he didn't come home until nearly 10 last night. I'm getting REALLY tired of him blowing off dinner with us since I take the time to cook every night.
Am seriously starting to think of taking a 2-3 week vacation without him this summer to visit friends and family and make him miss us...
