I'm really good at that now, but my wife has caught on -- she'll ask me a question, and when I can't answer, I'm busted. Or, the worst is when I say, "You know, we should really buy X" when she just finished telling me 10 minutes ago that she is going to buy X this weekend. Oops, just have to shrug that off. :D

When we were working, my wife would run me out of the kitchen saying, "Go look at your forums or something...just get out of HERE!"

Wow...I guess I'm not the only one in that club too ;)

I have to clean up from dinner, put 2 computers back together, and finish my paperwork from work today in 30 minutes :(

edit: It's not that I'm in "trouble"... my wife just starts the whole "I thought you wanted to spend time with me...you've had all day to do what you needed to do" spiel

edit 2: subbed "wife" for "old lady"...silly me. I thought "old lady" was slang for "wife" :roll:

I always get the "Good grief you are going to look at THAT forum again" speech
