Yeah it's a miracle, I'm posting less than a week from the time I posted last! Shaddup. Anyway, all you spank-nos out there...(all three or four of you maybe?), I'm speaking to you especially in this post, appealing to the bond that unites us. Particularly the fantasies we dream about.
Now you spankos out there have to understand that some of our fantasies differ slightly from yours. There's the loving ones that every woman dreams about, yes. But unlike your fantasies like of stuff that happens in DD fiction, we also dream about, for instance, days we can do what most want and not be held accountable. Of course, bonfires of burning implements, hee hee. And then there's something else. Deep in the recesses of our mind, we dream about something else, a little dark, but just as comforting.
So spank-nos, level with me: on those days, when everything seems to be going wrong, ever thought about what it would be like if we could switch roles with our husbands? Let them know what it's like (maybe get sweet revenge...shhh, I didn't just say that!) Okay, all you goody two shoes, you can deny you've ever considered such a thing. But I'll be brave and say it. I have. I've even expressed that fantasy to my husband a time a two. In teasing, of course...um yeah. "Just a day! For educational reasons! Please?" He's always shot me down, for some reason. Go figure.
Until this conversation came up out of the blue:
"So Sweetie, I've been thinking, I'll make a deal with you."
"Okay..." I answered warily, trying to decipher the mischief in his eyes.
"If you can get a job that pays as much or more as me with the company I work with, then we'll switch roles: you'll work there, and I'll stay home with little J, and you can even be in charge."
"Wait...WHAT??!!" I sputtered, trying not to choke on my coffee.
"You can be HOH," he clarified, grinning. I stared at him in utter disbelief. I could almost hear a hallelujah chorus and see a light from heaven. Did he really just say that...and mean it?
"You mean you'd follow my rules, and I'd get to spank YOU?"
"Sure!" he answered. "All of it!"
"Hmmmm, and what do you think you be doing all day?" I asked him, my skepticism returning.
"Mainly fishing with little J like every day!" he told me, his blue eyes alight with mirth.
"Ha, you think so! And nope, there's keeping up the house and yard, cleaning..."
"Yeah well, I'm 10 times faster than you at that stuff. I'd get it done really fast and be out fishing all day!"
Kay, don't roll your eyes, don't roll them... Here I was thinking I was in the middle of a fantasy, geez, I guess not compared to him! Okay, he's right about being way faster at completing things. But the rest of it was either a huge underestimation on what it takes to raise our son, or most likely a clever argument to support his point of being serious about this.
"Yeah uh huh!" I answered, laughing. "You so would not be able to last! You practically go crazy when I leave little J with you all day and on the weekends when I'm working already! Not to mention your pride, you know you'd never be able to submit to me!"
He just grinned at me. "Maybe, but we'll never know, will we?"
"Are you taunting me. Because I can, and then I'd make you pay! I just might!"
"Uh huh," he said, in that playfully mocking tone of his. Sure you will, Sweetie. Give me a kiss, and have a good day!"
And then he left for work, leaving me to mull over his strange proposition.
The great thing is Jay doesn't read my blog, and I can say whatever I want on here, without fear of him reading it. Mwhahahaha! So I should tell you what I won't tell him: that no matter how much I joke about wanting it, I would never never want to be HOH for any length beyond a day. I know, all you HOH's out there, that your job isn't easy, and I don't think I'd be able to do it! It's just not my personality. And truth be told, I can't imagine he would ever be able to be in my position, either! He wouldn't even celebrate leap year that way! Still, I can't deny that one day, just one day, would be so cool to switch roles, and yes, I've fantasized about it a lot! Like I said, it's quite comforting at times!
Now I'm smart enough to know what this is. He's taunting me with what he thinks is an impossible task. He doesn't think I'll be able to do it. I disagree actually. I have a Master's degree, thank you! There is a reason why I'm home (besides working weekends when he's not working), and he does know that and appreciates it. And getting and keeping a job there would not work for us, anyway. Plus, even if I got a job there and he stayed home, we'd keep the same dynamic, it's not like it's based on our jobs, anyway. Still...this is kind of a tempting offer to just pass up without having a little fun with it, ya know?
So what do you think I should do? Chalk it up to him kidding around, and let that happy dream go for the harmless taunting that it is, or hee hee, actually go through the job process and succeed in getting a job there (not keep it, just get it)...just to see him sweat?!
What to do, what to do... ;)
Make the man sweat!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI agree! :)
DeleteOh yeah. I say definitely make him sweat!!!!
ReplyDeleteI say definitely too! :D
DeleteHeck yeah! Make him sweat it!
ReplyDeleteGirl power unite!! Thanks for supporting me, Kat! :)
DeleteHeh Kay, you're funny. Just this weekend my hubby did something really dumb and if I'd done the same thing, I'd have been in SO much trouble. We've talked and he's forgiven and all that stuff but I'll admit that the idea of giving him a few licks crossed my mind. LOL, the fact is that I'd likely give him one single swat and then hug him, panic and comfort him for causing him even an ounce of pain. Clearly I'm not built to be a HoH.
ReplyDeleteI think at the very least you should look up some jobs that you could get with your experience and education and show him the #'s. Make him sweat a bit. Just don't go get yourself in any trouble as you ponder this!!!
Me? Get in trouble? Now where would you get a crazy idea like that?! And I'm not sure I'm that much better than you at it, LOL! Still, I'm always one for experimenting! ;)
DeleteIt only seems fair, since he's taunting you a bit, to make him sweat a little. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Grace! And so true! :)
DeleteOh good grief, how could you NOT make him sweat?! He is asking for it Kay!!
ReplyDeleteMy point exactly, Molly! :D
DeleteNice to see a fun, happy post Kay. Take care.
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks SNP! We may be stressed right now, but there's good times too! :)
DeleteTaunting? Oh definitely make him sweat! :D
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Geez! :)
DeleteYour comment about wanting to be HOH for one day made me think of a tradition in Austria. On St. John's day, the children are in authority in the house, rather than the parents. It occurs on December 28th. Perhaps you could adapt the tradition? Mwhahahaha! Or not....
ReplyDeleteOh I knew I was born in the wrong country, lol! Hmmm, I'll try and negotiate it, not sure he'll go for it...if I know my husband I can predict what he'll probably say, "sure Sweetie, you can totally be in charge on Dec 28. Just remember on Dec 29 you're going to get each and every thing back TENFOLD!" Grrrr....
DeleteKay, make him sweat..... do it for all of us. We need someone to be brave and try it while we live vicariously through you. Last car trip my husband asked me how I would be if I was in charge. Boy did I have fun with that. I was laughing so hard. I think he is still worried. Lol. Go for it
ReplyDeleteI'll try not to let everyone down, Blondie! Although...you know he no doubt has a loophole to get out of it...he's worse than me on that! Grrrr....Lol
DeleteDefinitely make him sweat for taunting you. I'm with Blondie, do it for all of us lol
ReplyDeleteOkay Roz, for all of us, I will try to be equal to the task...;)
DeleteDefinitely make him sweat!
ReplyDelete-Patricia
Thanks for your support, Patricia!
DeleteI vote definitely start the interview process, just to make him sweat!
ReplyDeleteI'll try, Sexperts! First I have to find a position that's open...
DeleteJust type up your resume, and a cover letter with all your qualifications. Then hand it to him so he can edit. He will definitely sweat! :)
ReplyDeleteFunny, Minelle! Although he'd just see that as taunting him, I'd have to go a little farther than that. But I did set up a job-seeking profile with the company, so we'll see what happens :D
DeleteSorry, I'm late to reading this post Kay. However, the answer to your first question is 'heck yes', I've thought about it! I can't imagine living this lifestyle and not ever having it cross your mind at least once... or a thousand times. To actually get to do it.... Now that's a whole different ball game! Still, I'd love to see his face if you were able to say, "guess what baby? I got that job today, and yep, I'll be making a bit more than you have been, and oh yea, if that beds not made everyday when I return home... Well you better have your butt lying over it when I walk in the door Mr!"
ReplyDeleteA girls gotta have a dream, doesn't she....
Ha ha! ROFL at the thought! And absolutely...:D
DeleteGreat post! You are so lucky, my ogre would never offer such a thing. I think I would be a lousy hoh anyway- I lack focus! LOL..
ReplyDeleteThere are times I'd like to smack his bum though- just so he knows that it hurts! Grrrrrrrrrr...
