h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

 Ok I need your help. YES YOU!!!! To anyone who happens upon this journal entry......please render your opinion here. My fiance is in the dog house.......We have been together for almost two years, have lived together for over a year and are getting married in October and last night when asked what color my eyes are he responded "brown". Which would be great, except for the fact that my eyes are not now nor have never been brown!!!!!! In fact they are blue and sometimes have some green to them, but never Brown!!!!!!!!! So I am upset with him. Now I know some of you may think I am being sensitive and perhaps I am. And I do forgive and yes I am still going to marry him, but I want to know what you the viewer thinks of this. Also I want to see if any other females feel the way I do about flowers. At midnight last night he was going to go to the 24 hour grocery store to get me flowers, like that was going to cure all. I informed him that paying a little attention would be much better than flowers and that flowers do not fix every little problem. Why do you men think that they do......why do you think that if you mess up, you can buy us flowers and we are supposed to act like that makes up for it??? Can anyone tell me why? I am taking suggestions/comments/votes from you the viewer....Let's hear ya H2G2!!!

At least he didn't say they were purple.

Thank you that was definitely a good way to put it in perspective for me........BUT he did get me flowers. Once again.........they are awfully pretty.......needless to say I am no longer mad at him but I still want to hear what everyone has to say......

Us poor old men can't win. Especially on the flowers thing. I mean, you like flowers, right? But if we buy them for you - it's obvious it's because we're trying to say sorry, or make up for doing something wrong like standing you up, or forgetting your birthday, or not remembering what colour your eyes are.

Now while these things obviously need to be addressed, the least you could do is make it a little easier for us by saying you like the flowers.

No flowers aren't an excuse to go on forgetting your birthday, or thinking you've got purple eyes. If that were the case - then we deserve to be ditched pronto. But to have the flowers thrown back at us - when they were meant as a clumsy peace offering, a way of us telling you we've screwed up, but we do care really - means that at the end of the day, we won't remember the important stuff.

I've found that buying a puppy works wonders when she's mad at you.
