Pity- Party of 1

Why am I the black sheep and the a$$hat isn't?  Last night, DH and two other friends in our neighborhood went over to a$$hat's house for a drink.  It made me mad/sad because I didn't want to go because the a$$hat still hasn't apologized and because, uh, the BABY was sleeping (DH did ask if I wanted to go- I definitely looked at him like he was an idiot).

Still, people could come over here but, even though they all complain about what an a$$hat the a$$hat is, they still hang out with him.  Meanwhile, I'm left at home, which is highly convenient for DH.

Pity party over.

    I SO hear you. Sorry you got left in the dirt. My husband does the same thing. Then when I talk to him about him going out all the time and me not getting to see him that often, he tells me it's my fault because I don't WANT go with him. Umm... we have a BABY and he has a BEDTIME at 9 o'clock. Guess who's night ends at 9 o'clock with him??? MOMMY'S!

    Yeah DH is always like let's go here or let's go there.  I usually have to be the one to put the hammer down and say nope - it's DS's bedtime.  If he gets off schedule you don't see DH taking care of him...it's always mama.

    DH works full time, is in a part time MBA program in the evenings, and sometimes feels like he is left out of the loop with his friends (new baby and all).  I feel bad saying no to him going to a happy hour for this reason.   Once school starts up though, I'm going to hardly be seeing him!  It just stinks because my "down time" is with the baby!  

    There was an interesting segment on a morning show one time about two-parent working households that said in general, dads considered themselves as working more than moms because they counted the "work" that they did at home (playing with kids, giving baths, bedtime, etc) into their hours.  Moms counted it as leisure time with family..... hmmmm.....

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure DH thinks he's working when he does anything with Rory.  It's not that he minds, but he doesn't think he's getting to relax.  I can tell when he starts getting antsy about having her when he starts wandering around the house, waiting for the moment when I stop whatever I'm doing so he can hand her off.  I, on the other hand, would never put her down if it wasn't going to cause social issues later in life ;)
