Just call me Susan Smith

A family member of Dave's is having some marital troubles... married 10 years, 2 young kids, adults who have drifted so far apart.

It happens. HOW is happens is an interesting debate, one that Dave and his sister recently analyzed.


Sister: I really think that [husband] married [wife] because he saw what she would become.

Dave: Meaning?

Sister: He wasn't sure if he wanted to marry her, but he knew she's be a good mother. So he went through with it.

Dave: Ah. I did the opposite. I married the woman who will make me happy for the rest of my life, but she might, you know, drown the kids in a bathtub.


Love you too, dear.

Oh how sweet. You know, in almost "WTF?!" kind of way.

Honesty is awesome.

Lovesfool: Ugh, you know me too well.

Rachel: The fact that you have a child and still find that hilarious means that there's hope I could be a fun (non-drowning) mom someday.

Marie: Totally!!

Susan: Agreed. He keeps me honest, too, what can I say.
