So this is rich...

I'm sure you'll all get a kick out of this.

So DH is taking this class once a week after work at his job. It's one of those Dale Carnegie rah-rah Office Space kind of classes for leadership and management training. So they have a teacher, and then 5 or 6 'coaches', who are former students that this class apparently changed their life so much that they have to go around preaching the word to the new class. Fine, whatever. Except that DH's 'coach' calls once a week on Sunday, during dinner time, to 'reach out to him'. Give me a break!

So this week, his weekly assignment is to prepare a small presentation on your greatest achievement in life, and to bring in a prop to demonstrate it. So the guy calls yesterday evening, DH picks up the phone, and gets all sneaky on me and walks right out of the apartment and downstairs to the first floor landing, and proceeds to have a 10 minute conversation! So when he comes back upstairs, I asked what his deal was that he left, and he said that he didn't want me to hear what he had to say. So of course I had to press, and then he admits that he was planning on using his greatest achievement as our wedding, and was going to bring in one of our proofs as his prop.

His greatest achievement. HIS!!!!!! DH, who I had to beg and plead and cry and scream and nag to do anything remotely related to our wedding. And he's going to say that it was HIS greatest achievement!!!!!

Hmph.

Awwww - I think it's kinda sweet! And I'm sure that in HIS head, he did so much - like show up, and wear a tux, and wear those darn shoes all day!

I am with you on this. DH could not be bothered with anything. And he would pull the same **** if given the opportunity!

At least he was smart enough to move away from you when he discussed it!

Does he mean the wedding as like he planned so much and put so much work into it? cause if so then to him...

but if he means the wedding as in... finding you and marrying you and spending his life with you.. then aweeeee

I can assure you it's certainly not the latter. I asked if he meant that he bagged a tall, thin, sometimes pretty wife that's a wicked good cook to boot, and he just blinked at me.
