Can I Call It a Day Yet?

Went shopping after work for new books to read in class and new (learning) videos that are fun enough that the students do not realize that they are educational. I got home at 5:30, then spent the next 3 and 1/2 hours feeding and doing maintenance on the ol’ vehicle. So, now it’s 9:30 p.m., SwampMan has retired to shiver under blankets in the bed (he’s come down with a virus), and I’m sitting at the computer while eating a dinner of cold boiled peanuts. If I go to sleep right now, I’ll have to be awake in 7 hours. ‘Course, I’m not going to sleep right now because here I am, catching up on the latest economic news out there, because the economic news here sucks.

    Swampman sounds like a man after my own heart

    ‘It’s the get-out clause work-shy husbands have been praying for for years.

    A study has found that household chores – including using a vacuum cleaner or microwave oven – could reduce a man’s chances of having children.

    Researchers exposed male volunteers to electromagnetic fields – high doses of which are produced by all electrically charged objects, including refrigerators and vacuum cleaners – and found such exposure could double the risk of having poor-quality sperm.”

    The best excuse yet for men not to do the housework…

    Bonz, unless My Chief (retired) has found a little hard-belly he wants to play house with, the only “child-bearing” around here is left to the younger generations. So that perfectly good reason is perfectly good bull…and he uses the microwave LOTS more than I do, cuz I don’t eat popcorn! :-D
