I Found This Amusing

The Child is out with The Boyfriend today so The Spouse decided we should celebrate by having BBQ for lunch. (We're also going to have curry for dinner. We know how to take advantage of her absence. Yes. Yes, we do).

So anyway, we eat our delicious pork sammies and potato salad and then he went off to watch TV while I played videos at the club.

He just came out and announced he was feeling peckish.

"How is that possible? Aren't you still full from lunch?"

"From the lunch I ate 4 hours ago?"

"Yeah, but you've just been lying around watching mutant bug movies on SciFi; it's not like you're burning any calories".

"Oh, honey," he says, opening the refrigerator door. "You'll never understand the pain of being a man".

There's nothing funny about the constant hunger that men have. I can testify to the horrors of the constant need to graze. :)

The girls at the hotel make fun of me because I "open a snack bar" in the back office to fill this insatiable need during my shift.

Of course, I've gained 30 pounds in the last 5 months, too -- so there's that...

I ate three pounds of Brussels sprouts this weekend. I cooked them all on Saturday morning and just grazed.

I am guessing that perhaps the only thing that can compare to the constant hunger of a man is the constant hunger of a hormonal pregnant woman. Har har.

The snack fairie leaves those fish cracker crumbs all over the place... for my husband it is all the calories expended constantly changing channels.

I am laughing out loud this very second! Excellent spousal comment. And...how went the "date" with The Boyfriend? For what it's worth, I find myself saying the same thing to The Spouse - "you mean, you want to EAT? We just ate 3 hours ago!" Makes me crazy. Like a buzzer goes off that says "must eat NOW".
