    Staying in the home now will require that I have to recall my Wifes name, and actually pretend I'am listening to her. This could get rough!!!!!!!!!

    Say that in the current situation you have decided to call her 'Darling' - in that way you may remember more easily and, as a bonus, not confuse her with anyone else! :smile:

    As for listening - that is a tricky one. Best to listen to every 5th line and make a comment - that way she will think you are interested.

    I need a sales/marketing guy for my bridge project. You could be that guy.
    What are you up to for the next month?
    You could invest the profits from your book and just sit back and watch your money.

    Sorry, my friend - I have major plans for the next month. They have been inked in long ago and the ink is very dry.

    I am going on a book tour - it includes all of Negros, Cebu Island, Bohol, Mindanao and finally Luzon.

    Huh? What are they saying about a 'lockdown'???

    I went to the bathroom at a restaurant. I washed my hands, opened the door with my elbow, I raised the toilet seat with my foot, I switched on the water faucet with a tissue then opened the bathroom door to leave with my elbow and when i returned to my table I realized.... I forgot to pull up my pants!!!

    It can be pretty busy with giving birth or divorces and end of relationships.

    A man and a woman were having dinner in a fine restaurant. Their waitress, taking another order at a table a few paces away noticed that the man was slowly sliding down his chair and under the table, with the woman acting unconcerned.
    The waitress watched as the man slid all the way down his chair and out of sight under the table.

    Still, the woman dining across from him appeared calm and unruffled, apparently unaware that her dining companion had disappeared.
    After the waitress finished taking the order, she came over to the table and said to the woman, "Pardon me, ma'am, but I think your husband just slid under the table."

    The woman calmly looked up at her and replied firmly, "No he didn't. He just walked in the door
