Ok, the hospital pharmacy called and asked if we could deliver three dozen orange rolls, I told them yes, got instructions on how to find them in the hospital, and since hub is cooking and I'm on the front, I sent my dad with the rolls.......he couldn't find it!!!!!! I wound up going back out there myself, and walked right up to it, no problem at all! Sigh, sometimes I wonder about the men in my life, do you guys?

My husband can't do anything either. The other night I asked him to go to the store and pick up a 2 liter of coke. He asked me what store to go to!!!!!

I said, "Which ever one you choose, they don't bottle coke differnetly for each store......it all taste the same."


I love how they like to act independant around other men but deep down, they know that they can't do anything without women!

Key Example.. Jason's brother.

when in Highschool, his mum asked him to go to the grocery store and buy some canned bean sprouts. -he, like the good son, went and looked.. and apparently pored over the aisle for a long tome before coming home empty handed...

o_O....

She sends Jason.. who walks up to them and is out the store in 2 minutes flat.

Somehow, Charlie, being the type that refuses being wrong.. said.. "I thought you said go get some GREEN sprouts"

now, When he's lost something (all the time) we tell him it's next to the green sprouts.

The men in Brendan's family all have this problem where they can't see things that are right in front of their face.

Example:

*Brendan opens fridge, stared blankly for about a minute*
Brendan: "Babe, where's the milk? I think you might be out."
*I get up, walk to fridge, glance in, grab milk that was literally right in front of his face, hand it to him, and sit down*
Brendan: "Oh. I didn't see it there."
Me: "No kidding."

I think your Brendan must be related to my hubby. He does the same thing:

"Talon! Where is the mustard"
Talon: gets up, looks, grabs mustard, hands to hubby, sits back down.

(Yes, he calls me Talon)

Yeah that's all you're going to get because I don't think I'm like that. I think my dad might be though.

I remember FIL (when he was still alive) visiting MIL in hospital. The visiting time chat was going along as normal when all of a sudden he said "how many sugars do I take in my tea?"

I couldn't believe he didn't know!

My hubby and I have similar refridgerator conversations. If he can't see it in front when he opens the fridge, he assumes it isn't there. I have to keep reminding him that the fridge is in 3-D.

Of course, we women have our moments, too. My mom once called me and asked me how to make Roman Numerals in the computer.
