Norm Peterson Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 We'd been invited to something Sunday evening and my wife sent regrets that we couldn't go based on stuff we have going on Sunday afternoon. Knowing what's going on Sunday afternoon, I didn't think there was any big conflict and couldn't really understand why she felt she needed to send regrets about Sunday night, but I didn't say anything at the time. AND THANK GOODNESS I DIDN'T! Yes we have a conflict for Sunday evening! There's a Husker basketball game! Whew, dodged a bullet there. Imagine if I'd have told the wife, "hey, there's no reason we can't make the thing on Sunday night." If she'd have changed it and called that in and said we'd be there for that function, do you think there's any chance in hell I'd avoid sleeping on the couch Sunday night after I head off to the basketball game instead? Not likely. I must have had a guardian angel watching over me. Damn, I'm lucky. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 It is always good to put the copies of the schedule in numerous places so that there are never conflicts regarding games...ever. Quote
HB Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Norm, something tells me you haven't spent a lot of time on the couch during your marraige...so, I'd answer the question yes--there's plenty of chances in hell that you'd avoid sleeping on the couch. Either way, it would have been your obligation to attend the game. Norm Peterson 1 Quote
Norm Peterson Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Posted November 9, 2012 Either way, it would have been your obligation to attend the game. See, that's what I think. Have a feeling my wife might disagree. Quote
HuskerFever Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 There must be some good vibes in store for the Bob Sunday night. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Norm, I am shocked, surprised, flabergasted...someone married you? Bless her heart, she must be one very sweet, understanding and kind hearted woman unl 1 Quote
BjoeHusker Posted November 12, 2012 Report Posted November 12, 2012 Norm, I have no idea what you look like (nor do I want to). All this time I just assumed you looked like George Wendt (who by the way is co-starring with Shelly Long in the soon to be aired made-for-tv movie "Merry In-Laws"). You'll always be George Wendt to me. Quote
49r Posted November 12, 2012 Report Posted November 12, 2012 So, Norm. Speaking of the wife...how IS Vera doing these days? Quote
Norm Peterson Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Posted November 14, 2012 So, Norm. Speaking of the wife...how IS Vera doing these days? Hey, she's putting up with me. So that's a plus. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 Norm: Afternoon, everybody! Customers: NORM! Woody: Hey, Mr. Peterson, what do you say to a cold one? Norm: See you later, Vera. I'll be at Cheers. 49r and Jadler 2 Quote
