Heh, personally I can't stop joking, just part of me. I used humor to maintain my sanity during my difficult childhood, and I use it today as an excellent form of stress relief. The missus may whine from time to time, but she can't deny she always gets in a better mood with me around - unless I'm deliberately being insensitive of course heh

I feel this is more common than not -for sure, us women are generally the worriers carrying some load in our heads about something, we let the stress get to us. Men are more calm and almost ALWAYS more funny! Oh yes!

We still joke like we're teenagers, it's so weird when the kids go to bed we get to stop being sensible adults and just turn goofy again!
Maybe some night they will hear you through their bedroom walls-when they couldn't sleep - I am sure they would find it pretty sweet, with a nice smile -knowing their parents still feel that way.

This thread makes me feel like playing a random snoring sound then recording it and then telling her that she has been snoring the last few nights and see her reaction. Might include a few farts and tell her it was her. Heh

Mrs. Dog's sense of humor has progressively evaporated over the years. It's as if she discovered the Salem Witch Trials and decided that the bad guys were right and fun and happiness are evil, immoral and against God.
