A couple had just returned home from their honeymoon when the new husband tossed his pants to his bride and says "honey, try these on." She takes one look at his pants and her small frame and says "sweetie, there is no way I could wear your pants."
"Good" he replied, "Always remember that. I wear the pants in this family."
The wife then tossed him her panties and asked him to try them on.
"Ha!" he laughed. "There's no way I can get into your panties."
"Right" she replied, "and it will stay that way if you don't lose your attitude!"
Happy Friday everybody.

The Shoe Game
Have you seen the shoe game they play at wedding receptions? The bride and groom sit back to back, each holding one of each of their shoes. Then the emcee asks a question (like who is most likely to say "I love you" first?) and they have to hold up the shoe of the appropriate person.
Continuing the theme from this past weekend's wedding, let me tell you about this version of the shoe game.
Who is most likely to apologize first after an argument? Shoes go up.
Who is the best kisser? Shoes go up.
Who wears the pants in the family? Slight hesitation.
Then, something interesting happened. Remember, they can't see what the other person is doing. He raises her shoe. She raises his.
In it's worst case scenario, this could play out that nothing gets done because each is looking to the other to take charge. But that's not how I see it with these two.
My take is that these two will respect that the other has significant input and leadership responsibilities regarding things of the house and home. They see themselves as being able to be submissive when necessary and in charge when needed.
I like this.
What if he raised his shoe and she raised hers? Sure, it would have made for a few laughs at the reception, but I'd be writing a different blog today.
