Yesterday, we went shopping for couches, which is
something that we have been attempting to purchase unsuccessfully for years. After 3 hours, my wife was so fed up with the
process, that she impulsively bought the very next couch that I said was
passable. Unfortunately, it ended up
being an extremely expensive purchase, so after the sales lady walked away, my
wife said that she hoped that I enjoy my Christmas gift. I quickly exclaimed that we needed to back
that roller coaster up one minute. How
is it that somehow my wife got a new laptop for Christmas, courtesy of Black
Friday, and I get the couches that everyone in the house gets to use?!
Well that ain’t happening. If it’s my gift, then nobody else gets to sit
on it! I want free rein to sit in any
seat I want any time I want. If someone
wants to park their tuches on MY couch, then I’m going to charge them rent by
the hour. I’m going to develop a webpage
where they can sign up and enter their credit card information, so they can
automatically be billed. And there won’t
be any proration either. Any part of an
hour is charged the whole hour! I figured that my couch
tariff should net me enough money to afford a laptop of my own next year.
