What Bugs You

All of us have come across people or situations in life that bug us. The following was from one of my friends.

We were driving to a job site and out of the blue he asked me.."does your wife put down the toilet seat cover?" I wanted to laugh but you have to know my friend so I asked him, what do you mean as I hadn't noticed whether the cover was up or down when I go to the bathroom in our house.. all I care about is the toilet water is clear.

He goes on to tell me that his wife never puts down the cover and it bugs the life out of him. Apparently, this has become an issue in their house. He said that he has mentioned it to his wife a number of times and she is aware of how much it bothers him.

A few weeks ago, he said I had a brainwave. I decided that speaking to my wife was not working so this is what I did. I wrote the following note and attached it to the underside of the cover .."honey, I know that the toilet seat cover has caused a lot of disagreements between us but as of today, when I see that the toilet seat cover is left up, it will remind me of how much you love me and when it is down it will remind me of how much I love you."

I asked him if it worked. Yes, he said, the cover is down more then it is up.

My wife and his wife are friends. I've noticed lately that my wife is leaving the seat cover up.

I wonder!
