Video Games

As I sit here listening to my wonderful husband play his new video game he got for Christmas I really want to go throw the whole thing out the window. It is so frustrating for me. I know he works hard all day and he wants to come home and unwind but seriously? His love for this mind numbingly annoying past time has been a thorn in my side for some time now. When we first got together he never played them. It was actually something that I really appreciated about him. I have many many friends who have wasted half of their young lives holed up in stinky dark rooms shooting each other int his make-believe world. I have seen it destroy every kind or relationship and I considered myself so lucky to not have that fantasy to compete with, then came Call of Duty and all that changed, ugh. Then, this last weekend he asked me to get him a blue tooth headset for his game. I love nothing more than to make my hubby happy so I happily got him one. Now he plays and talks to his friend from work and my sister's husband. Now not only am I annoyed because his head is stuck in this game but now I constantly think he is talking to me! Double Ugh. This too shall pass I suppose but until then I would like to hunt down whoever dreamed up video games and have a nice long chat...
