"Find a nice place and make some reservations." My wife said.
"What?!?! I don't make reservations." I said, in shock.
My wife normally picks the place we stay. Carefully comparing cabins, looking at pictures, reading reviews, measuring locations against some sort of internal grading system. She spends hours researching, weighing, analyzing choosing. And she always comes up with a great place. She is thorough, careful and considerate.
I pick a place and start panicking. Then I look at other places and start hyperventilating. Then I go back to the first place and realize it might be ok, and then I fall completely to pieces, and start looking for something, anything that might make sense in a world gone mad, filled with cabins surrounded by God knows what, filled with terrors unimaginable. George Bernard Shaw said "you cannot be a hero without being a coward." I'm covered.

"But, I am much better at picking the traveling mascots, and you are much better at picking the place we stay." I explain, in my most logical, reasonable, careful voice. We should both be on the on the same plane here.
"You have already picked the traveling mascot." She says, exasperated, her eyes looking to Heaven for strength.
"Just the first one, the easy one, the still photo one. I still have to pick the animated mascot."
"And the cabin," She said.
So, I picked the cabin, made the reservations, found the nearest Kroger, only 14 minutes away, chose the animated travel mascot, and rushed this video into production. No thanks to my wife. I have to do everything.
