A Guy's Logic

So my hubs has been eying the PS3 for quite some time now.  But frankly, we already have 2 xbox 360's and I just couldn't see getting a whole new gaming system.  Again.  It's not like the console and games are so cheap that you can pick a new one up every other month.  A new game, regardless of the brand, typically runs more than my phone bill!  It's just insane.

Well last week both xboxes got the dreaded red ring of death.  And this isn't the first time, either.  We've already had to send each one back for repair before.  This would be the 2nd time.  And frankly, being a mac person, I had warned hubs that since xbox was made by Microsoft, be prepared for many repairs anyway!  But I digress.

Now, here's where the Guy Logic comes in...  Hubs worked last night. His shift ended Sunday at 6:30am.  Typically he would come home, sleep during the day and then be awake at night, as he tries to stay on his sleep schedule as much as possible, and then go back to bed Monday morning.  But unfortunately he has court Monday morning.  So he knows he has to stay up as long as possible today, so that he can sleep tonight in order to wake up rested for court tomorrow.

He calls me this morning on his way home and actually says to me that he has to get a PS3 on the way home to help him stay up today!  See, there is no other way to stay up.  No matter that I was taking the kids to the Colorado Garden & Home Show today.  He couldn't come with us.  That wouldn't work, no way.  It must be the PS3.

So I chuckle to myself, and because I know that he has been waiting so patiently for this, I couldn't say no.

I did find it strange, though, that when I got home, he was in bed....   I guess it wasn't the magic pill.

On the plus side, though, now our DVD player that was downstairs is upstairs.  The kids will be happy that I can now watch all of my Harry Potter movies in my room!
