Home alone for 6 days - what to do?
« on: February 27, 2012, 04:58:08 PM »
Fellow swaggers,

A bit of guidance and feedback required here!

SHMBO has jetted of to Adelaide until next Saturday to visit our eldest daughter.  Now, Im sitting here just thinking about what I might accomplish in her absentia.  Ive got a few ideas, like:

Spend more time on myswag!
Spend more time on myswag without being interupted!
Spend more time on myswag and order in evening meals!
Do something meaningful = clean the toilet, put down the lid.

Bear in mind, I cant multi task, Im a male!

Perhaps you can assist with a bit of feedback.  If you have ever been in this situation, or, contemplated it, what would you do, or what have you done without her knowledge whilst SHMBO has been away for a few days?

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Mace.

Rule number 1: If all females leave the house for a period of 24hrs or more the toilet seat may stay raised.

Party at Mace's

Unfortunalty, local  :police: have this address.  We've had 2 18th birthday parties and  one 21st here for the 2 daughters during the last 3 years!  You kno the story, invite 60, have 160plus  in the back yard at midnight - call  :police:  to evacuate the event!.  So, party mite be a non goer (however, Can Can, if you can make it friday nite and assist with cleanup we mite be on!).

So, happy for more guidance, particularly, what have you done when SHMBO was away.

Female opinions as 2 what would be a suitable outcome most appreciated!

6 days alone, isn't that when you give the bbq good test, and invite your friends to justify the gas use, and they bring some beverages as well.....just a thought.

Well, since you are no longer required to put the seat down, and you don't have to piss off to the shed for some P&Q ... watch a movie and have a few beers ... scratch your privates when you require it ... don't shave ... don't mow ... don't put out the garbage ... don't log out of MySwag for at least 3 days ... get 1/4 of a cow and attempt to eat it all ... BBQ'd ... I know for a fact that all blokes know how to peel potatoes and create chips ... buy takeaway curry and fart like you always wanted to ... often ... drop wet towels everywhere ... along with your clothes ...

Clean up, shave, pick up, clean the BBQ, dump the empty stubbies, flush and put the seat down .... Hi Honey ... You're Home!

Don't forget you can also spend the next 6 days wearing just your undies....although I highly recommend putting paints on if you go out to get critical supplies from the bottle shop.
Oh i don't know if I can make it on Friday to help clean. ..I don't think I can get the gurney on the plane
