If they're dry, rough, and scaly, then they need a foot rub! Duh! My feet are 37 years old, and my 32 year old boyfriend gives me foot rubs all the time, so if he can survive the experience, so can your husband! "So that’s when I killed him." = PRICELESS! I agree!

Well done. OMG I can't believe he said that. My dh is exactly one year (and ten days!) younger than me so he occasionally makes the same BIG FAT NONO. Like the other day I noticed a grey hair (I'm 29, be thirty in a January) and I was like "how long have these been here?" and he was like "A while...y?" and I'm all "Well WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ,ME?!?!" and he said, "Well, that's what happens when you get...um...<em>old</em>". Yes, yes, he does indeed fry up nice n crispy. Reading through your posts this morning, I have done a lot of “aw”ing and Laughing. Well done.

Priceless. What is it about men that they all come with a built-in need to say the absolute WRONG thing at the wrong time? Such as the other day, when I was getting dressed, and stepped in front of the mirror in my bathroom, about to put my makeup on, when I noticed that the shirt I was wearing - that I hadn't worn since before I had Son #2 - was clinging in a slightly less flattering fashion than it used to. I commented to my husband that I had loved that shirt, but it obviously did not love me anymore. His response? "No, it loves you, it just doesn't seem to like your love-handles." Umm... what? My WHAT? He's lucky he works graveyard, or he would have had a long, cold night on the couch. I actually laughed out loud at the end, with the “That’s when I killed him.” comment. Priceless.

I know how good it feels for me when I get mine done and I want a little reciprocity (and MY feet are UGLY)) 2. I know it feels good for her. Always good for men to keep a few credits in the bank. 3. I'm a little bit cheap and I balk at what she pays for Pedi's. "Jeez for half that, I'll do your feet." :-) To this end, we keep bottles of the mint foot lotion handy. Keeping one partner happy usually makes the other partner happy too. And when one is cranky, that's never good for the other. I willing do my wife’s feet because:
