 MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

I know what you are thinking. Mission Impossible was an old black and white TV  show that was somewhat futuristic with fantastic weapons and impossible odds.  Then it was remade into a slick color presentation starring Tom Cruise.

Well, some everyday things are really Mission Impossible. Let’s say you are married and your wife tells you that she does not feel like cooking. The correct answer of course is: Hey, that is in your contract. It is your job. I don’t feel like working every day either, but I get up every morning and go to work to buy you some fine cookware, a toaster, a dishwasher and a sewing machine.

But don’t say that . Oh no. Don’t say that. You might get some soup made with dirty dishwater or even worse a fruitcake or some stale bread cut up into a bowl of milk or worst case; some dog food in a bowl. NO, don’t say that. Just don’t.

Instead, you say something like: So, you want me to go to the store and get an 8 piece chicken meal? Before you can get the words out……..I’m not in the mood for chicken says she. Oh well, I could pick up some Ta….es . No, No, says she , I’m not in the mood for Taco’s or Mexican food.

Well, right about now, you might think , just ask her what she is in the mood for, Right?

Oh hell no. You have got to finish the game. You say how about I make you a sandwich?   Well, save your breath. You put too much mustard on a sandwich and you know I don’t like onion on my sandwiches.  Well, how about we order a pizza? It is not Wednesday, says she. Don’t ask.

There is some left ov……No, left over spaghetti is too dry and I am not in the mood for Italian food and we don’ have any garlic bread. I could go and buy…… No, that would take too long  and I am hungry now. Time now to ask? No, not yet.

Howz about Mc..No I don’t want a happy meal.  Well, I could have told you would not be happy with a happy meal.  What exactly do you mean by that remark? There is no reason for you to get all huffy. Now do it.

Then what would you be in the mood for? I don’t know. Why don’t you think of something?  says she.
