Just back from Yosemite - it's free during the shutdown. Go there! Wasn't sure what to expect but other than no one at the entrance, everything was open and the bathrooms were clean. Bathroom hygiene is the measure of every national park.
Regarding 1.) reducing the number of pillows on the bed and 2.) the dogs refusing food of ANY kind--- you're just dreaming, pal. However, this is one of my favorite posts ever.
You could hold out till the next election and wait for the dogs to be unhappy when their pet insurance goes away so you can outvote her. But, you probably won't like waiting that long.
You could accept the goldening of the home if she agrees to use gold paint rather than real gold.
You could demand she stops the plan to pave over the garden and put a ballroom in the backyard which will eliminate the sandbox where you can bury your head.
We have no visitors scheduled for a few months. You can use our spare bedroom.
2. Since this seems to be a stalemate, demand that a mediator be called in. I’d recommend Jimmy Carter, but it’s a little late for that. Maybe Jimmy Kimmel. Don’t demand budget things. Just act as if you have a fair and balanced budget.
1. House may be shut down, but, I’m sure you’ve got a key. Get in there and dig up all the gold and turn that into actual cash. Turn that cash into—I don’t know… a shutdown survival kit with astronaut food? Or buy an RV and travel around the nation with your non-partisan platform. Leave the sombrero.
3. I know there’s a sombrero. Somewhere.
4. Household budget? Huh? We check the bank. Add money from one account to another. Then my husband cooks up a big pot of beans.
5. Of course you can stay. But you have to come to Kansas. And I hope you enjoy beans!
Mr. Estrin! Mr. Estrin! Thanks. Sheila from The Daily Nonsense and TomFoolery Monthly: WILL this shut down impact the Absurd Acts of Journalism Department? How long do you think people will tolerate NOT getting any absurd journalism coverage? Lastly, was Taylor Swift's "CANCELLED" actually about you? Thank you.
I think therefore i am? Chris farley and kids in the hall 1998 the arguements without being allowed to be part of the fight!!!! Fight fight!!! suffocation and shutting down ... all is well knee ow! Chivry is not dead but misogyny might be?hope is futile faith is everything. Faith that the deal is dealing with it all....
Lets hope christina holds put for as long as it takes for a fair deal, the ostrich has lurched his head out of the sand and the real elephant in the room is exposed we can see our problems now. the house doesnt need to be shut down let domestic tranqulity reign!
Its been a gas! A fair deal is facing each other with honesty and fairness and not gaslighting silencing women they try to patholgize and control somnrarios on! face yourselves and the crimes u commited while laughijg your asses off denying everything and your enemies pain
Michael, I think you need to start laying off staff - the dogs have got to go.
I think you're right.

Less pillows on the bed is not a symbolic victory. It's a spit in the face of tyranny.
Solidarity, Eric! Yes, we can have fewer pillows.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words and for upgrading your subscription, Annie!

Stop the shutdown and go to a retreat. Come back and hand her the purse; live a happy life ever after…do negotiate some pocket money.
I guess you can continue to go full-ostrict in front of Christina until she backs down.
You could always give Trump a call and let him negotiate a deal.

Jimmy Kimmel may not be Jimmy Carter, but he’s the Jimmy we have, and a Jimmy is better than no Jimmy.
(that’s what she said)
You demand health care subsidies! (Christina pays for your spa day.)
Yes!

Indeed! This aggression against absurdist journalism will not stand.
Glad to see you are on the right side of history, sir!
Burritos for lunch and professional massages for afternoon break!
You can hold out as long as she doesn’t turn off your Venmo account. And hope she doesn’t license out the house to a concessions company.
This is wise. Every word.
Love the home shut down. We have a check book shut down or a venmo shut down as it were. Budget cuts actually work.
Shut it all down until it starts working again
Like an old Dell.
Hah!

Misogyny is not dead but chivalry might be!
