Default He bought me a pressie

Things havent gone brilliant for me since we have been here, and was feeling a bit down today.
Mick came home from work about an hour ago.......was stuffing his face with a huge bread roll, when he suddenly said to me, 'oh, I nearly forgot........I have got a pressie for you'
I was so exited. We were out at the weekend and saw some really pretty faberge eggs Mick even said to me, 'you really like them dont you' ( My sister bought me a beautiful one as a leaving the UK gift, and I have fell in love with them.)
I immediatley jumped to the conclusion that he had been out and bought me one. Just goes to show how greedy I was being, when he dug deep into his pockets and produced half a dozen wooden pegs. With disgust I looked at them and said, 'Why the bloodyhell have you bought me pegs?'
'Oh I didnt buy them' he replied.
' The house that I am working in is empty and they were going to throw them in the bin, I thought you would like them'

Now what goes on in the brain cells of men??????
Why on earth would any female want half a dozen bloody wooden pegs??????

Totally baffles me!!!!!!

I'm really sorry Sandra but that cracked me up. Just come back from school having had to deal with a horrible child (not mine ), feeling irritable, read that and LMAO.

The sad thing is, he was probably totally confused as to what he had done wrong - men, can't live with them, can't live without them.
