Uh oh...wife is pissed.

I just received an email informing me that since I neglected to take out the litter the cat took a dump on the rug in front of the litter box. And apparently there was some moldly laundry in the dryer...however I find that claim dubious, I fished some underwear out of there awhile ago and it seemed dry to me.

There is no excuse for my actions...so I'm thinking of inventing some sort of 'man period' affliction and blaming that. Or buying flowers.
 
HTF do you have moldy laundry in the dryer? Isn't it supposed to dry clothes? Don't people take clothes out of the dryer anymore? This confuses me to no end.

Flowers and/or a card. Do they make "oops!" cards?

So what exactly happens in a situation like this when your wife gets pissed about such things?

I just want a heads up so I know what to expect when I get married.
 
Take her out to dinner tonight! About the same price as nice flowers and you get something out of it, plus you're saving her dishes! WIN WIN WIN
 
E-mail her back saying to pick up the cat sh!t with her bare hands and to clean the mold out of the dryer with a toothbrush, and next time remember who's in charge.
 
To be fair, a few months ago she accidentally locked our cat in the pantry where it shredded some newspaper and then took a dump in the recycling. A mess which I dutifully cleaned up since I arrived home first. However, I anticipate bringing up this transgression in my defense shall backfire.

Bad move there. If you want to hear EVERYTHING she has EVER done for you without a reson, you can go ahead and throw that one out there. Otherwise, keep your mouth shut. Some battles are better left unfought. 😉
 
M wife once went on a trip. There was a load of laundry drying and one in the washer. My instructions: hang up the clothes in the dryer, put the wet clothes in the dryer. All done.
I opened the dryer. Looked like plenty of room left in there. So I took the wet clothes and crammed them in with the dry clothes. I don't think I could have fit another sock in there. I pushed the door closed and fired the dryer up. A week later when she got home, she found what I had done.

Boy was she pissed. She had to wash both loads of clothes again (they were stinky and VERY wrinkled.) Apparently a dryer doesn't dry when it is so full the front is bulging.
 
Tell her to go sleep on the couch till she is over it.
Cut off all sex till she is civil.
Flowers!! She should buy you a case of beer. 😀

A quick google search will yield studies showing that men actually have more drastic hormone changes than women. The difference is a male cycle can last months to a year whereas women go through the hormone cycles monthly so it's more noticable. Tell your wife to lay off you for the next 6mo till your cycle passes or she's getting no more sympathy from you. 😛

She claims the slightly damp clothes that occasionally get left in the dryer get moldy. I'll sometimes leave the final load in the dryer after I finish doing the laundry. The mold she speaks of, I have never seen...and I reject the notion as a fabrication.

Excellent...
"Do you know what it is like to have raging hormones for a week at a time???"
"STFU BIATCH! Mine lasts a year!"
 
Uhhh....so instead of talking to you about it in person or on the phone...she emails you, without any form of emotion behind the words....women are great....😛

Ummm...I can attest to that fact. It took a week, but it happens.
