The Complaint Form

As a SAHD, my main job is to take care of the kids. It is to teach them how to behave and instill in them a sense of what's Hoss. It's a big job to teach them things that will prove useful later in life like always taking the blame for Dad when he messes up. I teach them that if they do this, they get ice cream.

But that's not all I do. I"m not just a one trick pony over here. My other jobs are to clean the house in a half assed way, forget to dust on a regular basis, completely ignore the windows and on occasion put on a cape and tights and fight Morlock of the Mole people for the souls of the world. My package looks great in spandex.

One of my most important jobs though is to support Hossmom as much as possible. Let's be honest here, she's the bread winner. Me? I'm just the nice piece of meat that goes in that bread. But Hossmom makes all this possible so we have to support her in whatever self serving way that we can. So with that in mind I'm creating something for Hossmom. You see, I'm helping her get organized, she needs it. Hossmom seems to get pissed at me from time to time. And I usually don't know about it until I hear foot stomping upstairs. I verify this by asking her what's wrong. When I'm answered by silence or a flung shoe, I know that something is bothering her and chances are, it can be traced back to me. And she holds on to grudges like Bubba Hoss holds on to his hotwheels.

It got me thinking that with all the jihads that she has going on, how on Earth does she keep track? After all, It's not easy being married to a man who gave up his career to go against the social norm of staying home with the kids. Sure, dinner is waiting for her when she gets home but couldn't it be a little more gourmet? Maybe plated in a fancy way with an artsy french sauce carefully placed in a haphazard manner? I mean, honestly, you would think I could put some effort into things. Shes' stuck with me forever and forever is a long time when your married to a guy that does the family laundry. I could do better.

To help Hossmom out I've created a form (I'm a previous government worker that loves forms) that can be used by Hossmom every time I leave the toilet seat up and she falls in. And the beauty of this form? The beauty of this form is that it can be adapted so that it can be used by my mother in law, sister in law, my own mother, my sister, the lady down the street that hates my lawn and Michelle Obama. hell, if I write a blog you don't like, use it then too! That way, everyone knows why they are pissed at me and I can work on it with the help of your constructive fucking criticism.
