Diary of a Bad Wife: Mocking the Man Cold
Patrick is home, suffering from a classic Man Cold. Not familiar with that term? Hopefully this video enlightens you:
I just heard him in our bedroom whimpering, "Ughhh, Bunbun."
(Bunbun is our nickname for each other. Humiliating Cute, right?)
So, I go in and ask him what he needs.
Patrick: "Ugh ... nothing ..."
Jen: "Well, why did you call me in?"
Patrick: "I didn't."
I now realize when he was moaning "Bunbun", it was a self-pitying reference to himself. Good grief.
Patrick: "But now that you're here ... I could use some gingerale ...."
Jen: "Gingerale is for upset stomachs. I thought you had a cold?"
Patrick: "Ugghhh ... Bunbun."
Sheesh. He's lucky he's cute.
EDITED TO ADD:
Patrick just came by and saw the blog post.
"Why did you put a picture of me on here?!"
"I didn't. That's Nick Frost."
"Oh, oh right. Ok, then.":

LOL. I showed the video to some of the men in my office and they all cracked up too. Too true.
I have one of those too (a sulky husband, not a man cold). I empathize.
