Viviendo en Spanglish

Life is great!! So because it is a joy to be alive I must complain about something, we wouldn't want all the joy to suck the fun out of life!!

Things that annoy me about JJ

It's wrong that i am writting this so early in the marriage, but they have to come out some time. I love my husband and i have made the commitment to stay with him because we understand and love each other, but that doesn't mean he is perfect.

1. Cleaning up behind me.
Last friday I made a big dinner, since he wasn't taking me out to eat and i was starving i went for something big. Enchiladas, a lot of work but i love them. When we were done with dinner i cleaned up the whole cocina (kitchen), the microwave, the dinner table, the dishwasher, she sink. The next day we were out the whole day and got home ate popcorn and went to bed. NOTHING was done to the kitchen, not even sex!
Sunday morning comes and i make brunch, eggs and toast, the only thing around me that was messy would be my plate. JJ takes out the clorox wipes and a towel and starts to clean the kitchen. Annoyed I ask " what are you doing? i cleaned all of that Friday night". He looks at me a little annoyed, "oh, but I am cleaning the bathroom and i thougth i would get this too".
"why?" i ask looking across the aparment, "the bathroom is on the other side of the room".
It annoys me when he goes behind me doing something that i already did. The kitchen was not the only thing, there was the bathroom, the dishes, vacuming the living room, cleaning the kitchen floor.

2. He doesn't come to eat dinner when i call him

I cook a full meal for him, and warm up tortillas. Now Tortillas made by machine in the United states are very sensitive. If kept on the fridge for 1 week, they all stick together and are hard to pull off. When warmed up they go stale and hard in a matter of minutes.
JJ doesn't like me standing warming up tortillas for him, so he waits. By the time i'm done with warming up they are stiff, stale and going cold.

3. He only likes to watch movies that we will "Both" like and of course "both" means him mostly and me willing to put up with it.
We went to the movie rental place, i wanted to get a chick flick, he wanted The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I said yes, i just wanted to get out of there.

Maybe i've had enough for today...
