There’s One In Every Relationship
While dropping off my kids at my mother’s for a sleepover, I get a text from my husband of eighteen years that says, “You know, I would be lost without you.” How sweet! Or, so I think.
When I get home, he is sitting on the floor in our living room with five remote controls in front of him, glaring at our TV. We have a big-screen TV, soundbar, cable box, and several devices connected to the TV for streaming and gaming which he doesn’t know how to use very well. I am the tech queen of the house.
Husband: “I’ve been trying to get a movie on for when you got home, but I can’t figure out how to use the Firestick, I don’t know how to get to Netflix, and I don’t know what is and isn’t free On Demand. I sat here thinking to myself that you’d better not ever leave me or I’ll never be able to watch TV again! That’s when I texted you.”
Apparently, he’d only be lost without me when he wants to watch TV.
