**CairoCarol:** Is your husband participating in sports, or maybe working out? My wife still thinks I’m weird when I throw a paid of U-wear in the hamper after working out, playing tennis, or doing something else sweaty. It only took her one sniff to be convinced I was in the right. (TMI?) -Cem ---

The NajaHound has an unfortunate panty-fetish. He occasionally thefts my underwear out of the hamper and _suckles them_. NajaHusband does the laundry, and would never notice an unusual decline in the panty count moving through the wash. I, however, will notice that the number of clean pairs is disproportionate to the number I have worn since the last laundry day, and will have to go on an underwear hunt to find my violated undergarments lovingly stashed under the bed or in other out-of-the-way places. This results in a glut of underwear through the next wash. In my house it’s “im in ur hamper, stealin ur dirty laundreys!” NajaHusband finds the whole thing hysterical. ---

[QUOTE=Kalhoun] I had that discussion with my son regarding his toothbrushing habits. The first indicator that he wasn’t brushing regularly was when I told him not to forget his toothbrush for a sleepover and his response was, “what color is mine again?” :eek: [/QUOTE] If only. We got “Do I have a toothbrush?” ---

Well, my husband looks like the underpants gnome with the pointy hat, except he doesn’t have a pointy hat. Has a beard though. MY HUSBAND IS AN UNDERWEAR GNOME. Now I’ll have to apologize to the cats. ---
