You know what I hate? (Ok, not so much *hate* as *roll my eyes so far back it's physically painful*) "MY husband [insert miraculous walks-on-water type behaviour here] and is soooo attractive that [insert amazing attractive defining behaviour here]" etc.

Maybe that I can see a lot of my husband in your examples. I often feel like venting, and it slips out a little hear and there, if you're watching, but I assume that if you're comfortable airing a few dirty linens, there's more than enough crisp & clean towels in the closet ;-) I have no idea what that means. This is why I'm not an *actual* writer.

I need another glass of wine.

My husband gets a little pissy if I write about him in a less than charming light too but hey you wrote the truth and if you can't blog about it what can you do? Nag him more in real life? Yeah, he'll love that.

Oh my. I would love to use T ee H's comment on my husband, but unfortunately he reads your blog!

What's the point of having a blog if you can't make fun of your husband??? I thought that was the official definition of a blog.

Crap, this post was not supposed to make Adam look bad. He's resigned to my blogging!

I really just wanted to get at how difficult it is sometimes for writers, when we write about our real-life relationships.

And also just to poke a bit of fun at the gender divide in marriage!

Oh, my, if he did what he should, you wouldn't have anything to complain about! None of us are perfect, but it could be a lot worse--for both of you. I hope he gets over it soon. And don't let him stop you from blogging. It's the 21st century and whining only makes him look bad.

Jesus, just tell him to 'suck it up princess.' Like my wife tells me.

You are just one of about 10 female bloggers I've heard talk about their "husband won't allow it." This makes me so sad. I'm glad I never got married.

Do what you want!

Thanks, Jacqui. It's like my husband the expert thinks I'm Dooce, or something. Bless him!

DIY is totally open to mocking - just look at those tv shows dedicated to making the husband look totally stupid and incompetent. Your hubby should be grateful he didn't end up on tv, exposed to the nation. Mine insists on calling in the experts for every little thing, frankly I'm surprised I'm allowed to change lightbulbs. I'd be all DIY if I could.

Nagging is just a term guys like to trot out when it's useful. If they'd ever seen a true nagging situation and a truly hen-pecked husband they'd be meek and humble in the face of the occasional wifely loving reminder.
