My husband is being an asshole!
Nov. 14th, 2004 01:01 pmMany of you know that I own an iguana, and for the most part, it's pretty easy to take care of her. The only difficult thing is cleaning out her cage. I have a tiny little door that I would have to fit my body through in order to get in there and clean, which is nearly impossible. Instead, I take the cage outside and hose it off. The problem is that the cage is quite large in comparison to the doorways in this house, so when I have to take it outside, it needs to be taken apart.
Enter the asshole husband part. This cage is about 5 feet tall, 4 feet wide, and 3 feet deep, so it's not exactly easy to handle. It's quite difficult to take apart alone, so I need someone else to help me. Because my lovely other half told me from the beginning that he wanted nothing to do with the iguana, he would not help me take it apart. I had to struggle with this thing to get it apart, and he just sat on the couch as I tried to maneuver it down the hallway and through the kitchen. When I looked at the cage, I realized that I had broken two little parts off where the cage fits into the base, so now when the iguana goes to the bathroom, it's going to leak down those holes and onto the floor. Lovely.
I managed to get the base outside (the cage part is in the office here so the iguana had somewhere to hang out) and hosed off, so now it's sitting in the back yard drying off. Steve is still sitting on the couch watching football, while his friend Donovann and his girlfriend play ping-pong in the garage. I'm so mad!
So to get even, I'm not doing his laundry, and he's out of underwear :). He refuses to do his own laundry, so we'll see how he gets out of this one.
