What would you do?

Yesterday my husband begged me to leave work early for his birthday. I told my co-workers he had to go to the doctors and lit out like a bat outta heck.

We spent two and a half hours at the DMV.

I KNOW what I would have rather been doing.

How about you?

    If he'd begged me to leave early on his birthday then spent hours stuck at the DMV I would've kicked him in the shins!

    I would've enjoyed a movie or an early dinner or some afternoon delight...maybe all of the above!

    Catch a matinee and a nap

    at first, i honestly thought that said "catch a manatee" and thought "yes. a nap after catching a manatee is appropriate...you'd be tired."

    He had you leave work so you could go with him to the DMV? ...On his birthday... :frown:

    I would have taken a nap, made dinner, then relax and watch a movie :happy:

    Something exciting and fun which would probably be outdoors but also could be in the bedroom or kitchen or living room or actually just about anywhere.

    This would be an EPIC thing to do when leaving work 3 hours early.. it is now one of my goals.. I like manatees, it would be fun catching one.
  • Going home 3 hours early...

    1. go out to eat
    2. a movie
    3. gym, if he wanted
    4. enjoy alone time without kids! (oh wait, my youngest is 16 months, so wnjoy nap time lol)


    DMV though, heck no! I agree with the kicking part....
    I would be in a pretty bad mood

    Who the hell asks their SO to get off work early for b-day or any other reason to just go to the DMV for 2 hours...that's BS. He should have gone to the DMV on his own and been waiting for you to get home...naked and ready to roll with all of the chores out of the way.

    That said, these would have also worked for me:

    1.) early happy hour
    2.) cook something beyond the average quick weekday meal
    3.) Gym

    I did this just yesterday.

    Had enough of work, decided to take the rest of the day off. Stopped off at the Pet Food Store to get my kelpie some Bones and ended up adopting an Abused Short Tailed Cattle Dog.

    Been looking for a companion for my kelpie for about a year now, and any of the dogs we trialed didn't work.

    When i got her home they instantly became friends, started sharing bones and sniffing around the yard.

    Guess everything happens for a reason.....
