He's In The Land Where Anything Can Happen
In order to be a good husband, it's necessary on occasion to put your own desires aside for the moment and partake in activities that your mate wishes to indulge. And this time of year those activites are often related to schmaltzy, over the top Christmas themes. Parades, light displays, special exhibits at stores, and Christmas concerts are a few examples.
And so hoping to maintain my standing as a decent husband (as well as thinking that maybe there's still a chance to influence Christmas shopping decisions) I will battle the icy wintery winds and trudge through the snow to escort my wife to a holiday affair at the State Theater in downtown Minneapolis.
Sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the greater good. It won't be easy but somehow I'll endure an evening featuring the Brian Setzer Orchestra Christmas Extravaganza. It's a dirty job but someone has to do it.
