Couple of days ago Old woman and I had to move back to the city for awhile. So we packed up, for me easy, for her, I thought I was going to need a moving van.
Anyway I had to leave my 30" monitor behind for my laptop that has the emulator loaded for playing on Android platform. 15" screen, so better than my iPad and definitely a phone.
Yesterday she asked me to do some chores around the house, I gave my usual grunt and off she went.
I was only going to play a couple of games, really I was. Well then I had a brilliant ideal. Hook my laptop to the 55" TV in the living room.
Moved some furniture around, setup a place for snacks and a pop, place to use my wireless keyboard, mouse and my joystick.
It was awesome, the picture, the sound coming through the sound bar.
So I'm playing away, knocking out those daily tasks, blowing up bots and having fun.
I never heard her come in, but I felt something was wrong. I looked over and, well nearly keeled over when I saw the look on her face, her arms crossed and that foot tapping.
Needless to say, I can't repeat what was said by her. It was nice outside, sun was shining, low 60's. I had been hit by an artic blast though.
My moral is, keep your spouse happy, and I forgot the most important lesson I had learned in almost 50 years of marriage other than Yes dear, your absolutely right Dear, yeah I know I screwed up.
Happy wife, means happy life. So if they ask you to do something that doesn't involve the game. Do it.
