B and I decided that we should write a book about marriage entitled: "This Much We Know or How to Stay Together Forever." it would only have 3 pages and the first two would be pictures of us, most likely running towards each other in a grassy field. The third page would have these simple rules:
1. If you would like to have bedroom time, do not try out new impersonations of people you know, especially relatives.
2. If your house smells like hotgarbagetrashcanmelt, go ahead and check the trash before blaming the aforementioned smell on your partner's bad breath. This tip alone will save your marriage.
3. If you happen to get into a fight, be the first one to laugh. Yes, your partner will automatically think that he's won, but you got the last laugh. (wink)
4. Dinner can be cooked by anyone in the marriage.
5. Always remember the golden rule: tis better to give, than to receive. And by give I mean shop, and by receive I mean to save. Just make sure the spending is fair. And by fair I mean 60% to the wife, 30% to the husband, 10% to the wife.
6. Maybe the most important rule of all -- do not ever pronounce marriage as "mawwaige" especially before the words counseling or vows.
