The Gibbs Slap

Those who watch NCIS know what I'm referring too!  I'm not saying whether this is right or wrong, good or bad.  That debate could go on forever.  What I'm asking is have you ever felt like doing it to someone?  I know I have.  The Husband.  Yes I love him dearly, and he is a great guy.  You know that from my previous posts.  BUT, there are times. 

How often do you have to ask for someone to get the message without throwing things.  You all know how I have blogged about keeping the dining room table clear.  How I like my sewing area ready for when I'm in the mood or have a project going.  Today we were having an insurance lady over and the table was piled with books, the camera, a blood pressure kit, just to name a few.  I started to clear it and just said "to hell with it".  Him: What's wrong?"  Me: "NOTHING" 

Now to the sewing area.  Piled around that is more camera stuff, his coat, binoculors and the camera bag on the floor where I need the foot pedal.  GRRRRRRR!

Now don't get me wrong, I definitely am glad that he is around for me to complain about as well as praise, but sheesh, why couldn't he put his s*#t away?  Sometimes I just have to rant to ease up on the blood pressure and I just couldn't wait till Wed. 

I know this is a small problem in the scheme of things going on in the world today. That there are so many more important things to care and blog about,  but I did need the relief and do feel better now.

Sorry you all had to be my ranting boards.

  1. Oh, I know just how you feel Terry. It was the same with Jim. I loved him dearly and still miss him so much, but the fact was he had his faults too. LOL I think all guys do. Most guys are raised by their mamas to expect to be waited on. That is a fact of life. :-)
    P.S. I love NCIS, It is a new show tonight. Hooray!

  4. There's a song by Alice Cooper called: "Little Things". It always makes me smile because he takes this to so many extremes with his sarcasm on the subject. I think that it is the little things that drive us up the wall but hey, this is a good as place as any to vent right?

  5. LOL i love the Gibbs head slap ! I think we all want to do that at some point and time, you probably want to do it to me sometime with the political talk but its all good and harmless !!! The creators of the show sure did a good job adding that little "slap" in there as a Gibbs trait for sure, i laugh every time he does that.

  7. What a hoot of a blog, It brings back married life to me, but now I alone am responsible for any mess, and sometimes I need a slap to remind me to have a blitz and tidy up, but I blame the dogs.
    This is such a pretty site.

  8. Bwahahahaha! You know something... sometimes we men don't put things away because, well... we lazy. Plus, we darn well know if we wait long enough and tune out the yelling... you women will eventually put the stuff away for us. You love us anyways... and we love you too!
    The next thing you women will be saying is that sweeping a room with a glance is not a form of house cleaning. Pffft!
