SGT Over-Analyzer

Sometimes, I swear... my husband drives me nuts. When we watch movies together there is not one time EVER that we have ever been able to watch a movie without him jumping up and over-analyzing things, then proceeds to lecture us about whatever it is... then it goes onto money, then food, then lights left on, then kids rooms, then the "When I was a kid" speeches... ugh... yeah. So this afternoon we watched a movie, and this is what happened:

SGT Over-Analyzer:  See! This is the problem in todays Army! No one has respect for their superiors! Complete blah diddly blah diddly blah (to be honest I stopped listening).

Me: It is a MOVIE! Sit down, shut up and WATCH IT!!!

SGT Over-Analyzer: No! I have seen ENOUGH!

Now, wanna know what movie it was? Hurt Locker? no.. any other "Realistic" Army movie? Wrong again... it was The A-Team. He eventually sat down, shut up, and enjoyed the movie.



So when we watched "The Other Guys" this evening I was prepared for another tirade... no tirade, but it started some other nonsensical story.



LOVED the nonsense of that movie: "OK EVERYONE... I TOOK AN ONLINE CLASS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX IN NEGOTIATING... I'M GONNA NEED A PRIEST AND A BULL HORN!!!"


So many quote worthy lines!!!!




Other than that he will complain that we eat all the food, or we don't eat it and it goes bad (no-win situation my man). He wants to be left alone, why does no one talk to him? I have resorted to making fun of him to point out how insane he is being. How he is tired of everyone whining, bitching, and complaining... but he does it more than anyone. I swear it is a miracle that I have all my hair (maybe he lost his for the both of us?). 


Through it all, I love the man, I know what kind of heart he has... and with my poking fun at him he is (very slowly) learning how to laugh at life, himself, and relax a bit (but not too much). I was amazed when i moved something in the kitchen (away from the heater so that I could turn it on) and he LIKED IT! OMG!!! I did something he LIKED!!! The problem with that is when he sees something in a new place he wants to move MORE! DO MORE! KEEP MAKING THINGS BETTER!! UGH!!!!


Only 6 more sleeps till Christmas... and since it is almost 12:30AM now I plan on going to bed. 

Christmas Memory... I love my family!

One more week till Christmas. It is harder to keep my husband away from the gifts than it is the kids!

Hubby: Can we open one gift tonight??

Me: NO! Go away!

Hubby: Humph!

 

I believe this may have been Draco as a Kitten

So we have lots of snow outside... I LOVE it. It means that we are going to have a White Christmas! I have lived in Nebraska and Colorado, but having a Christmas with lots of snow on the ground, or a Christmas when it actually SNOWED?!?!?! I can't remember when that has happened.

Last Christmas it was just cold and icy out. There was a little bit of snow on the ground. We were still in Colorado and all of our Christmas decorations were on a ship somewhere on their way to Germany. The hubby and I got the kids clothes for Christmas (easier to pack), we let them open their gifts in the morning, Googled places to eat that were open on Christmas day, and were happy that IHOP was open.We had dinner at IHOP and then went to Tinseltown and watched Avatar and Sherlock Holmes.

It was almost like being a practicing Jew again! More importantly, we were having fun as a family. That day was definitely about spending time together and being happy. That is a Christmas I will forever remember as the best Christmas ever.
