Haha, he's never at a loss for words--even on a note to let you know he's at the store, I enjoyed your little story, Rachelle. Good job using just a few short sentences to tell a whole story. Thanks for sharing. Jan

OMG Rachelle, That would just about drive me nuts if my other half did that! Then again my ex became my ex because all he would ever say was "Yes Dear" whenever I said anything... I couldn't even provoke him into an arguement! All I would get was the inevitable "Yes Dear"... made me nuts. Go back to your mom and dad... "Yes Dear"

Comment from QC Poet
His way of adding mystery and intrigue to a boring daily chore, is my guess. LOL, Great humorous read and Interuputation. Thank you for Sharing your Gifts and insight.

Comment from Joy Graham
Hi Rachelle,
This is too funny :) I keep going back to the note to read and can't see anything that indicates he was talking about milk or a store. Maybe I'm not a very good poet. Well, I know I'm not, but I try.
Not in a contest? This is just because? This is a fun one.

They run out of milk a lot (the emptiness that has become our life) and he 'slips away' (goes out to the store) to buy more because his wife has neglected to do so (his disillusionment)
I take it, Joy, you're not married to a poet...
And, nope, not a contest. Just for our entertainment. xo

No, my husband is not a poet, but I thought I was a poet until I read your post and response.

Hahahaha. You slay me, Joy. xo
Comment from royowen
A marvellous excerpt Rachelle, I guess that's not wasting a college education majoring in literary drama. Excellent work, talk about declaring his frustration, he could have said, "in my desert of human experience, which is our marriage contract" well done, the humour post of the month. Blessings, Roy

That is funny! You are not really married to a poet are you? That would really be funny. you do an amazing job of coming up with some creative things to write about.

No, I could not be married to anyone LESS like a poet. My husband is an accountant!!
Thanks for the best review of the day, Bill! I love it! xo
Comment from Mark Valentine
A guy after my own heart, a guy who knows that "My life is a complete and utter travesty, devoid of any meaning or hope", means that someone has eaten the last ice cream sandwich.
Such a clever little piece - made me chuckle - thanks.

Ditto for your review. Thanks, back!
Comment from Rhonda Skinner
Thanks for the chuckle. I like the way you used a different font and a free verse poem for the husband's note. Can't imagine my husband doing anything like that. :)

Comment from MissMerri
Rachelle, this is such a cute and truly funny little story! I think it might be fun to be married to a poet... but then again, maybe not so easy. This is just adorable. I loved it.

I think as long as one retains her sense of humor, she'll be okay. [of course, that pretty much applies to ANYONE who's married, doesn't it!!]
