You've Got to Hide it from the Kids

"The only charm of marriage is that it makes a life of deception necessary for both parties. ~ Oscar Wilde

I find myself hiding things alot. I don't like running out of my favorite foods, and my wife doesn't believe in stocking up, so I hide things here and there: a six-pack of soda, a box of my morning cereal, so our supplies don't get so low we run out. Same thing with towels. I have to hide one of the large bath towels I like so my daughter doesn't use them all up, leaving me to dry with a washcloth.

I even hide things from myself! I keep a few extra twenties tucked away in odd recesses of my wallet or in my car's ash tray in case I run out.

I hate running out.

and your car is parked WHERE right now?? :-) I never carry cash... just a cash card. That way, I eliminate spending at places that only take cash. Sometimes I find that I am eliminating less expensive places, but sometimes I am eliminating spending altogether (the desired effect).

Love the drying off with a washcloth. I mean, it's no fun for you, but it's pretty funny. :)

my sainted mother not only mastered, but doomed my sis and I to the horrors of... "the very special place" which is where you put things that you'll never find again as long as you live. If we're very lucky, some archeologist in the future will turn up treasure troves of archived 'really important stuff'
