There’s a story behind these photos. I came home one day and changed into my date night clothes. Andrew was in the other room playing a video game and didn’t say that much when he saw me. Normally he drops everything and runs to me and asks me about my day, etc., but not this day. So I was annoyed because I hadn’t seen him all day and I totally love it when he drops everything and just complete does his obnoxious hugging and such.
So I decided to show that I was annoyed. I decided to take off the nice clothes for our date and just put on basketball shorts and shirt. He came in, hugged me and asked me about my day. I said nothing. He asked about outfit photos. I said I didn’t want to do them.
“Babe. What’s wrong? You always want to do photos.”
“I’m FINE!”
“Perfectly fine?”
“Whatever.”
“Babe, what did I do?”
Silence.
I sighed.
“I’m mad because you didn’t freak out and do your adorable drooling all over me. You freaking ruined my plans to be all pissy with you when you came in here and were nice. I freaking was planning on being mad at you all night and being even more made while you watched the Spurs game.”
“So now you’re mad at me for ruining your plan of being mad at me all night?”
“Yes Andrew. How hard it is for you to understand!?”
“Yes Andrew. How hard it is for you to understand!?”
Pants: Target
Shirt: Zara
Shoes: Zara
Purse: Natasha
So we ended up taking photos and going to dinner and having a perfectly normal night. The entire night though he kept on bringing up how angry I was that I couldn’t be angry because he came in all nice and I couldn’t keep it up. Whatever Andrew. Thanks for ruining my plans to be angry. I love you.

Haha, I love this. This actually happens to me a lot. I'd be angry at my husband, and then he'd come in and say something funny and I'll try really hard not to laugh but can't. Ugh, can't they just let us be mad!?
Love your cute outfit!

okay, so i'm a dummy who can't read good. every single time this post says "ruined plans" i thought it said "ruined pants." which i thought was hilarious, because he ruined your pants by being inattentive. he sounds like a keeper, either way.

I do not understand this whole, you come in and he notices and wants to talk. My dogs do that. My husband doesn't. Must be nice… maybe that is what happens when you have been together for almost 7 years and married for almost 4. But I do get my feelings hurt when my dogs don't greet me… Also, this all makes complete and total sense to me (about the being mad because you couldn't be mad). Boys can be so stupid.

Please never stop sharing your stories — they're hilarious and relatable and so humorously self-aware. I've been reading your blog for a year-ish now and maybe have not commented once (for shame!) but just wanted to say how your stories always crack me up. I'm only a couple years older than you and wish I'd been as confident and self-aware at the end of college! I don't know how else to end this so "you go girl" seems right. You go girl.

Hahaha I love this story! You always tell the best stories! You look fab and I'm glad you aren't mad anymore π

I had a moment like this the other day! I was sitting in the recliner watching Food Network when Q got home from work and instead of asking how my day was he looked at me and said, "I see someone hasn't showered today or done anything productive". OUCH. Apparently he thought it was hilarious to accuse me of watching TV all day but I showed him when I opened the fridge to 2 pans of lasagna that I spent the day slaving over and he got home just as I was winding down & relaxing with some FN.
It's so frustrating that men can't understand us…we just want to be asked "How was your day sweetie?" not accused of doing nothing.
