Soooo...

Expat & thesun - I am not normally noted to be much of a patient person, but since Buddy and I were long distance before I moved in here, actually being in the same time zone made it easier to ignore everything. Now that the shine has worn off and he keeps dutch oven-ing me, I am finding it way easier to be annoyed!

The lentils recipe that I posted earlier is seriously delicious. For real. And very cheap. That and some homemade cornbread would be amazing. Just keep the beans soupy...

Ok totally off topic. We have this one resident here that is quite young. She makes these weird moaning noises all the time, like perpetual masterbation noises. OMG it's disturbing. She just started doing this several months ago. It was the middle of the night and I was trying to have my break/nap on a couch near her room. I could hear these moaning noises coming from her room and thought I was gonna be sick. I was quite relieved to realize that this is something she does all the time and that she wasn't actually pleasuring herslf. Ewwwww.

Well that would just creep me out completely.

TJ - I actually had to Google part of what you wrote and now I'm dying laughing: [url]http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080203130236AAUCKFI[/url]

aMrsin09 · October 2009

hmm, have they been able to determine why she just all of a sudden started moaning in the middle of the night?

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

Yeah, why all the moaning if not the dirty deed?

temerityjane · October 2009

I am sure I know what you had to Google (your husband seems as though he would never do anything so uncouth) and believe me, you'd be dying, but not laughing at all!Worst is when he does it when I'm dead asleep, and I am woken up by a SMELL, but so confused that all I can do is go "oh no! oh no!" and try to crawl away up the wall. He loves doing an impression of me for me in the morning.

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

Thanks for thinking so highly of my husband, but I'm sure it just hasn't occurred to him yet

temerityjane · October 2009

Expat - Sadly enough, that is not even the most creative way he has come up with to torture me with smells.He can be down right diabolical.Example: Cooking dinner in the kitchen and he'll hold his arms out for a hug, and me, being so trusting, will go to hug him. Too late I realize he is hugging much too tightly, in order to keep me from getting away while he steps backwards and drags me along through his CLOUD OF AWFUL.

Ughhh colleen you have my sympathies on the resident thing. Ours all chill 2 floors down in L&D which is both good and bad....but mostly bad. Its good because we don't ever run into an issue like what you're describing but bad because they can hide from us if they want.

aMrsin09 · October 2009

seeing all of these threads and posts about gross FI/DH farting and burbing habits...I am thrilled that DHs job has him living in surroundings that force him to behave. He would be sleeping alone if he did that to me. Heck his job even has him trained to put the toilet seat down (with lid) every.single.time.

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

Let's just say that my husband is pretty regular. Everyday after lunch he's ready to go. And he makes poor Oscar go with him. The poor dog knows better by now, but still manages to be tricked or bribed into the bathroom...

temerityjane · October 2009

aMrs - Buddy is in the military, working in small offices with other men all day. They actually compete with each other.10 more military years, 10 more years, oh man, only 10 more years...

thesuninherhead · October 2009

yes aMrs, I am always grossed out by those posts. My H is so very well trained in comparison! haha. and Colleen, that is rather amusing (albeit also disturbing for you)!

temerityjane · October 2009

Expat - That is hilarious. Does he need moral support, or just enjoy the company?Buddy initially thought that the bathroom was his male refuge of privacy, but if I feel like talking, I will follow up right up to the door and stand outside and continue talking.

aMrsin09 · October 2009

HA, DH works on mega yachts. I don't even think bodily functions are allowed. And if they are, they certainly aren't mentioned. It would ruin the "image" of perfection.

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

I think he just enjoys the company, plus the rise he gets out of me - I accuse him of torturing the dog

temerityjane · October 2009

Expat - I suppose that if that is the worst thing our husbands ever do, we should count ourselves lucky.But still. Men. Geeze.

colleenspencer · October 2009

We "think" it's just part of her dementia. Thank God Roger has never dutch ovened me. I have however attempted to do it to him, but he's stronger than me so he can always escape.

thesuninherhead · October 2009

My cats are forever trying to break into the bathroom when we're in there. The funny thing is that when they do manage to push open the door if it's not shut properly, they see us and they almost appear embarrassed when they realise what we're doing, and run off.

temerityjane · October 2009

Colleen - He's only managed to get me a couple of times (I'm very wiggly), but see my earlier description of the house - very small, hot rooms.And there IS something worse than a dutch oven. Our bathroom doesn't have a fan. Sometimes he runs in while I am mid-steamy shower.Ok, I am grossing me out so much I'm getting phantom whiffs of whatever died inside my fiance.

aMrsin09 · October 2009

Ok, this is way TMI, but the only time I ever expell gas is when I've been eating for too many carbs. Have you guys checked your husbands diets? This amount of smelly farting just screams of not normal intestinal problems. If H was having these kinds of issues on a regular basis, I'd have him off to the doctor.

colleenspencer · October 2009

My kitten follows me into the bathroom all the time. At least he finally stopped jumping on my lap.He likes to sit on the edge of teh tub when I'm havinga bath, I'm just waiting until he falls in and realizes how much he hates it.He freaks out when I shower because he can't see me.

colleenspencer · October 2009

Since my gastric bypass surgery I have horrible gas. I can admit it. Mostly it's to do with the lack of absorption and intake of so many artificial sweeteners.

temerityjane · October 2009

One time, when I was alone in the house, I made a mad dash for the bathroom, which made the dog think we were playing, so he came charging after me.I flung the door shut behind me, but it didn't latch (I was in a RUSH), so the dog caught up, burst into the bathroom, jumped up on my lap while I was on, you know, the seat, and I shrieked and he burped right into my open mouth.Sometimes I wonder how even I stand being me.

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

Good point, TJ. Let's hope they don't have any more sophisticated ammo

Sun - Oscar noses his way into rooms too. Ths is generally not a problem, except that he can't nose his way out... So he'll get locked in and whine until someone rescues him. I

that dog!

aMrsin09 · October 2009

OK, see, you have a medical reason, you get a free pass.

thesuninherhead · October 2009

Haha, Tapi loves attempting to get into the shower. He even jumps from the basin to the top of the screen and tries to balance (thank god has not hurt himself doing so yet). But, if I turn it on, he feels the water, freaks out and runs/slips away.

ExpatPumpkin · October 2009

Seriously, TJ, I can beat that - the dog burping in your face part. Just read last night about a mom who was doing the airplane with her baby - she's on the ground on her back holding the baby up - when the kid threw up. Into Mom's open mouth. She said it was the most humbling experience of parenthood that she'd ever had.

Soooo...
