DH is being an asswipe today
I have no idea why - he's just really grouchy and won't tell me what's wrong (or even admit that something is bothering him 
). He doesn't get like this very often, so usually I try to cheer him up, but I'm tired and grouchy myself today and don't feel like babying him.
A good kick in the nads is acceptable within the bounds of marriage, right? 
Re: DH is being an asswipe today
Sometimes I wonder if I should've written a good kick in the nads into our vows. "I will love you, cherish you, and possibly kick you in the nads if you start acting a fool."
Obviously, MH is acting up too. I don't know if it's work, or he's hungry, or it's the schedule conflicts we're running into with a trip that's coming up in a few weeks. I've been acting super-duper positive around him because, unless I'm also feeling moody and spoiling for a fight, it's easier than trying to force it out of him.
Whatever's with these Hs today, I hope they get back to normal soon!
I know Ben is a bit stressed right now because we're starting house hunting, and he's all excited and nervous about it. We looked at one place last night that he LOVES (I like it a lot, but I have reservations about the size of one of the living areas, so I'll need to make sure our furniture can fit - may sound dumb, but I freaking love our couches and don't want to buy somewhere that we'll need new furniture for), and now he's nervous that someone else will buy it first.
Which I can understand, but at the same time...if this one sells, it wasn't meant to be, and there will always be other houses. I think I'm far more pragmatic about this than he is! We're scheduling a second appointment and taking his mom there so we can get an unbiased opinion (I've found this is really helpful - she points out stuff we may not have thought of).

Or a beer.
OM goodness! I just made a new post about my DH! Whatever it was, he had a touch of it last night as well!
or a kick in the nads!!
What if I kick him in the nads, then give him the beer to use as an icepack? The sex will have to wait until I'm in a better mood.
hahaha
oh yeah, i guess i should actually try to say something helpful, rather than just giggle at the funny responses! i do something similar - i ask MH - "is there anything i can do, or should i just leave you alone for a while?" usually, when he's being grumpy like that, he says, just leave me alone a while. then i don't take it personally, don't worry about whether i did something wrong, etc - and when he's being normal again, he'll let me know and everything's fine again. it's nice, b/c we don't get into a circular problem of him being grumpy, causing me to become grumpy, making him more grumpy, ...
