TRICKS OF THE TRADE
or NOTES FROM WIFE #1
to WIFE #2
  • He can complain, you cannot.
  • Your methods of relaxing must look identical to his, and coincide perfectly to his work/relax rhythm.
  • He can fart in bed, you cannot.
  • He can be moody and pout, you must remain even-tempered and delightful at all times.
  • Remain patient and calm as each new day you tell him where he left his keys, cell phone and wedding ring.
  • Prepare a lot of meat, but make sure there are no cooking odors associated with the preparation.
  • Prepare three hot, well-balanced meals a day, and keep them varied. Just make sure they all resemble the five dishes he is willing to eat.
  • If he empties the dishwasher, throw him a parade.
  • Appreciate that he does not do anything in excess.
  • Appreciate that he is always where he says he is, and will always be where you tell him to be, and never late.
  • Appreciate that he loves you, and even though he doesn't say it, he knows he "scored" when he married you.
  • Appreciate that he is trustworthy with his time, attention, money and decisions.
  • Appreciate that he is worth far more dead than alive, so when you're ready to kill him, make it look like an accident.

I don't get it? Is this a letter to your husband's future wife? Or to your ex-husband's current wife?

Every time my friend's husband, "Dick" did something awful, I used to tell her, "Don't worry. Your next husband will be much different." Let's hope so!
