You know how we will sometimes just shut up and let our husbands figure out when they are wrong? We don't want to pick away at their ideas or point out when things go wrong. Usually when things don't go according to plans, people will evaluate the situation for a "takeaway" lesson for the future. My husband's takeaway is ALWAYS ridiculous, and I have to say, "NOOOOOO, that is NOT what you were supposed to get from that!"
Example: (I laugh about this all the time.) A few years ago, he wanted to take his son to a college footbal game. He wanted us all to go, and he told me about it a couple of days in advance. I asked him what time he wanted to leave, and he couldn't tell me. Instead, he told me what time the game started. I asked him, probably, three times (even once that very morning) what time he wanted to leave, and he never could tell me, so I told him that I would be ready at X time. That was two hours before game time, giving us an hour to get there and park and get in and another hour--or maybe a little less--to wait for the game to start. I fixed breakfast for everybody and we sat around and ate and talked. Then, hubby says, "Okay, I'll be ready to go in 10 minutes." What? I won't be ready in 10 minutes. I jumped up and took a bath and did what I needed to do to get ready. We left and drove 45 minutes in the opposite direction to pick up his nephew, then 45 minutes to the stadium. He dropped us off so we could get in line while he parked. We waited probably 45 minutes to an hour only to discover that the tickets he wanted to buy were sold out. We went back to the car (parked way over there) and just got something to eat before traveling 30-45 minutes back home. He was mad at me the whole time, because I was supposed to know that they wanted to get to the stadium hours in advance to participate in pre-game stuff. Not only did I not know that, but I didn't even know that we were picking up his nephew! How do I know that if you don't tell me?? I kept asking what time we should leave, and he never answered. His takeaway? "Next time I just won't take you." Oh, that's right, because I was what went wrong there. I came up with the bright idea to let the two cousins spend the night together, and his eyes lit up like it was the best idea ever. Really, dude, you couldn't come up with that one on your own? We drove all the way around the city. For nothing.
