makes perfect sense to me!
-----
[BusyDad] It certainly closes the logic loop :)
Did that really work? I'm pretty sure OhCountess would still give me 5 to the back of the head.
-----
[BusyDad] Ha - YES. Yes it did. But mostly because d Wife probably just saw me as a hopeless case. Cutting your losses.
OMG! I love it. Glad to see you gave the credit to Fury. I will have to remember that one. We have a rule here at work. KISS - Keep It Simple Stupid. I think that applies - you crack me up.
-----
[BusyDad] :) Can't get simpler than this one. It's pretty much just a variation of the time-tested "I want, I want!" method.
Now I'm stressed that I don't have any Sun Chips. Mmm that sounds good! Way to go Fury for teaching dad.
-----
[BusyDad] Children are masters at getting what they want. We could learn a thing or two from them indeed. Damn, I want Sun Chips again.
My husband would TOTALLY understand that.
-----
[BusyDad] Smart men don't mess around.
now, you've gone and reminded me that i'm stressed out that i don't have any ice cream.
-----
[BusyDad] Ice cream stress is contagious. Damn.
Oh, I love me some sun chips.
-----
[BusyDad] Aren't they the best? Unfortunately 1/3 less fat doesn't mean anything when you eat 3X as much. I hate that...
*snort*
-----
[BusyDad] *Hi Five*
HA!!!! I love that. Good reason, by the way.
-----
[BusyDad] I think fast ;)
GOOD POINT!
-----
[BusyDad] You can't argue with a closed loop. Kid logic at its best.
LOL
Have you tried the "natural" white cheddar cheetos? I feel the same way about those.
For my husband it's MountainDew
-----
[BusyDad] Oh! Sounds goood. I haven't seen those here. I love me anything white cheddar. Cheez It Stix!!!
I can see long years ahead for d'wife.
-----
[BusyDad] It's ok, you can say "grueling" - I don't mind :)
What else are you suppose to o with the Sun Chips if not open and eat them? :-p Have a nice weekend.
-----
[BusyDad] Can I use that one for next time? Thanks!
Mmmm, Sun Chips . . . now I'm stressed too.
-----
[BusyDad] See? I'm telling ya. It's a real disorder that needs remedying.
which naturally leads into the "why?' "why not." argument.
try that tactic next time. ;)
-----
[BusyDad] Oh that one works -- for driving you nuts! Fury went thru that "why" stage. And then he matured. He started using "how come?" More eloquent, just as insanity-inducing.
Nice. Very smooth. Completely acceptable.
-----
[BusyDad] And if I didn't post it, it may have worked again.
Are you sure you aren't a litigator?
-----
[BusyDad] ha - kidspeak can certainly confuse you like one. "so you're saying that it's not right that I don't want to not ask for this Bionicle, Dad?"
Please tell me she rolled her eyes at you... Yeah, yeah, she definitely rolled her eyes at you. I have complete and total faith in the fact that she rolled her eyes at you. :)
-----
[BusyDad] I'd say you are totally completely right. I can feel them rolling right now.
I feel the same way about chocolate.
-----
[BusyDad] They say alleviating stress is very healthy. Dr. Busy says so.
LOL! Sounds like a good excuse to open the sunchips!
-----
[BusyDad] It wasn't an excuse. It was therapy!
sounds logical to me
-----
[BusyDad] I love it how all the husbands answer like "yup" "makes sense" "mmhhmm"
I'm stressed that I don't have any lobster.
Happy weekend!
----
[BusyDad] Wow, you have taken that technique to whole 'nother level! haha awesome.
there's an empty bag of sun chips on nick's desk. a half-opened bag sitting next to me as i hop the web. and 2 or 3 half-empty bags in the pantry. yeah. they feed the addiction.

bloghoppin' and sippin' on a Friday nite cuz my life is just THAT exciting. ☺
-----
[BusyDad] Wow how cool is that? Sun Chips at your reach throughout the house. I'd be totally unstressed. Sippin helps too :)
Seriously, it is the little things that matter . . .
-----
[BusyDad] It evidently doesn't take much to make me happy :)
That IS some serious stress. You should see what I'm like when we run out of Twizzlers.
-----
[BusyDad] If your family is smart, they need to keep a couple in the med cabinet.
Oh, I will be using this one... and often... Thank you! Brilliant.
-----
[BusyDad] My pleasure :) I would love nothing more than to spread the doctrine of Kid Wisdom across the land.
What? I fail to see anything wrong with this. I'm serious.
...and I am sooo using it. :)
-----
[BusyDad] Oh it is quite the polar opposite of wrong. Simplicity is brilliance isn't it?
very the logic to me! if hubs ever said tat to me, think i will look at him speechless
----
[BusyDad] and he would happily enjoy his Sun Chips in silence.
DUH.
The thought process of that age amazes me.
-----
[BusyDad] They have a few pieces of knowledge, and their days are spent trying to meaningfully connect them all. I love it!
Love the logic there! Awesome! I will be sure to use that sometime soon!!!
-----
[BusyDad] This line of reasoning is airtight. A perfect circle. May it get you everything you ever wanted ;)
You left out "And she walked away just shaking her head". Have I got it?
This is why women started hitting men in the head with frying pans, smartass!
-----
[BusyDad] I'm on to her now! She keeps saying there's a mosquito on my head.
