DYK I can't believe I get to start this thread?
DYK it's still March 31 st here and only 9 pm, but it's April 1st according to the board b/c it's on a different time zone?
DYK I am excited to start April...I want it to be my most active month yet.

DYK I should mention the trash/sludge comment to my 14 year old
DYK he wants to be a marine biologist OR zoologist (for now, anyway)
DYK he is brilliant in Science
DYK however, he cannot pass math right now to save his life
DYK I keep telling that poor boy he's going to have to BRING HOME his math books and STUDY if he wants to be a marine biologist because it's probably mostly math in college to become a biologist of any kind
DYK he'll be the death of me before he's out of high school. I am sure of it
DYK oh my goodness, look at those eyelashes!
DYK he's gorgeous and really into his aunt!
DYK How exciting! Yeah!
DYK Let the countdown begin!
dyk re: graham cracker treatment
dyk you list out the things that bug him the most
dyk then you find creative ways that you could DO those things to him
dyk my DH hates crumbs in the bed
dyk I told him the next time (this was almost a year ago) I had to ASK him to take out the trash and he STILL FORGOT 0- I was going to crumble graham crackers over him in his sleep.
dyk but it has to be something your DH knows you will do.
dyk and my DH knows I don't play.
dyk I've not had trash issues in a long time.
dyk one time he used me not making dinner ONE NIGHT as an insult to throw at me during a stupid fight and he ate nearly burned pizza every night for about 10 days.
dyk another time I asked him to stop leaving his underwear ALL OVER THE HOUSE and he couldn't do it - I told him if I picked it up it was going into the trash b/c that way I never had to pick "it" up again and he still didn't listen
dyk until the morning he had to clean undies -
dyk make that - NO UNDIES AT ALL
DYK I was thinking you were going to say something along the lines of "oh, poor baby. Want a cookie/cracker?"
DYK this post cracked me up!
DYK my DH would play back so hard it would be WW3
DYK I sometimes WISH I could use these sorts of tactics on him, but it's sooooooo not worth it
DYK freshman year can be pretty stressful under the best of circumstances?
DYK I changed majors too? So did DH?
DYK Some schools have a no-preference major for the first two years for the very reason, that many, if not most, freshman don't know what their major should be?
DYK that at 14, what she eats shouldn't be a issue to get concerned over unless there's an eating disorder potential or health issues?
DYK getting her involved in the planning prep etc. is a great way to work this out?
DYK maybe she'll really get into cooking!
dyk you would need more sublte approaches. ;-)
dyk and I'm very careful not to do anything unjustified. I give warnings and am not asking for anything unrealistic.
dyk i wonder if they taught the "graham cracker treatment" in marriage
