Now interviewing for Husband #3, #4, and #5
The Mormons have it all wrong. Some of them anyway. How unrealistic is it to expect a group of women share one man. Anyone with common sense can see that train wreck coming a mile away but...
how about POLYANDRY?
What woman couldn't use an extra husband for
A) running errands?
B) attending social functions?
C) raising a family?
In my case, I've already found my second husband. My first/current husband meets all of my needs, but in the happenstance that he is unavailable or cannot consistently perform the husband's duties, the second in command will step up to the plate. Think of it like the President and Vice-President, a back up in case of crisis.
Who is my second husband? Lucky for me, he is a friend of my first/current husband, not married, and more than willing to help out if needed. And while they are completely different in almost every way, it is their differences that make me a whole person.
Now I must branch out and find the next three husbands to ensure my family's stability, and most importantly, meet my needs. Here are just a few qualifications that must be met for the second round of interviews:
1) Non snorer
2) Non Golfer
3) Loves the sound of my voice
If you feel that you meet these critera or possess skills not outlined here, feel free to leave a detailed comment, contact email, and a recent photo. I will get back to you.
Happy April Fool's Day.

I need a second husband for yard work and chores around the house!

I don't know about the snoring. I do know I USED to play golf. And the sound of your voice is so....so....is strange bad?
However, I am a northerner. Does that count?

Well, aren't you high maintenance?

Haha! Good one. I will ask my husband if he wants to apply for the job. I envy you having a back-up husband. I agree about the Mormons having it the wrong way round. Imagine all those wives with PMT at once. Eek, scary thought. :)

What you need is the Spice blokes,
Sporty husband, Posh husband, scary.....etc.
On for each occasion. On a peg.
May I also suggest a spare, Gay Husband , one that is able to have opinions about , curtains, fabrics, fasion, feelings, general girl stuff.
