So - in a supreme show of organization and planning (by which I mean complete and utter luck) all the parts for my HTPC will be arriving from 3 different vendors by way of 3 different delivery services sometime today

So my wife calls and actually asks me to leave the house to run some sort of errand! :confused:

She obviously doesn't understand the chaos that would ensue from missing even one of the deliveries. She will just have to wait at the hospital till all the parts are delivered!

j/k I think it had something to do with pink fluffy elephants or something. I'll be honest i really don't pay that much attention to her when she speaks :)

Unless she is working at the hospital and is not a patient, then I sincerely hope that you know what she really wanted aside from your pink fluffy elephants theory.

Wait she may just run off to the Husband store for a new you....
OH but wait they now have the new wife store....UR in luck...

The Husband Store

A brand new store has just opened in New York City that sells Husbands. When women go to choose a husband, they have to follow the instructions at the

entrance:- "You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are 6 floors and the value of the products increase as you ascend the flights. You may choose
any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you CANNOT go back down except to exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.

On the 1st floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs.

The 2nd floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

The 3rd floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids and are extremely good looking.

"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the 4th floor and the sign reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help with the Housework.

"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"

Still, she goes to the 5th floor and sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, help with Housework and Have A Strong Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to
please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opens a New Wives store just across the street

The 1st floor has wives that love sex.

The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money.

The 3rd through 6th floors have never been visited.

Maybe it's just me, but missing a delivered package is pretty trivial. And you don't listen to her when she is talking? Nice.

obviously your wife is cheating on you.

she asked if you could go run an errand because

her "package" was being delivered also....

Just make sure you leave and go do those errands. I'm scheduled to be there while you're gone and I'm on a tight schedule.

You mean
"she's probably 'taking delivery' of someone's 'package' as well..."

The way you wrote it is...wrong.

I was working yesterday on a server and a co-worker, Bob, was moving around some boxes, the CEO of my company came in and was talking to me about something when the co-worker found a box that belonged to the CEO's mom. He says 'I have a package for your mom'.




Fortunately it was meant as a joke and this guy has a great sense of humor, so this morning in our team meeting the CEO put a slide in his PowerPoint that said 'The person who helped me most this week: Bob's Mom'.
