1. Puts his sneakers on top of the coffee table. Why? "To get them off the floor, Jane." Do we eat off the floor?
2. I've never seen him buy a new toothbrush. I always buy them. I don't even want to think about what he did before me.
3. Picks his toenails while we watch evening television. I have offered, many times, the use of nail clippers.
4. In keeping with his aversion to nail clippers, Jay rips off his hangnails. Ugh.
5. Once peed on me when we took a shower together. Now, I've been known to pee in the shower too. But never when someone is in there with me. And I certainly wouldn't act all innocent like there was a third person to blame. I probably would bring home some flowers the next day, you know, for no real reason except that I happened to pee in the shower when my spouse was in it.

No! This is so unfair!
Dear Reader,
You know how karma sometimes asserts itself? Like, you put off doing the dishes after dinner and you stack the plates and bowls and pans and everything in the sink and the mess spills over onto the counter but you turn out the kitchen light and it doesn't really bother you. Then right as you are falling asleep you hear this terrific crash and you just know, without a doubt, that the cat has helped herself to some cream sauce stuck to the side of a dish and now the entirety of your kitchen floor is covered in broken dishes?
Try starting a blog on the premise of complaining about your husband (just a little bit!) because he was kind of a pain the day before and then he suddenly gives you nothing at all to complain about for the entire day. Nothing. Didn't hog the sheets at all last night. He appreciated the breakfast I made (wasn't all that exciting). He walked the dogs, went on a job interview, helped me deal with a very cranky person who has been making life rather difficult for us lately, and to top it all off, he was basically supportive and caring while I was having a very rough moment (due to the cranky person). Considering he has also had a rough patch lately, this show of support was incredibly super nice. I felt very loved.
However, if we are to be nit-picky, he is currently snoring. I had to wait all day to write you, dear Reader, and now he's fallen asleep (rather cute when he's all defenseless and shirtless in bed after being helpful all day).
Here's to hoping tomorrow will be a better day, blog-wise. (Otherwise, it may have to change to Complaints About Jane!)
