Last Night

The following is the conversation between me and QB last night:

Me: We need to make a trip to Sam's club to get some things. I have a list of about six things that we really need.

QB: Yeah, I need coffee creamer. (me thinking: how about something we all need, like, I don't know, chicken?!?)

Me: Are you going to go or I am going to have to go and take both kids?

QB: Well, I don't know when I'll have time. Besides, we have to wait until payday.

Me: Why? Isn't there plenty of money in the account.

QB: Nope. Very little.

Me: What on earth happened to all the tax return money??

QB: We spent it. (me thinking: WTF? You mean you spent it on stupid crap that we don't even need!)

Me: On what?

QB: Bills

* Now, I know for a fact that a large portion of this money was NOT spent on bills, but instead he used it as a personal windfall to purchase novelty items that he wants. I was here when several hundred dollars worth of power tools were delivered via Fed Ex. We don't have space for these tools and they certainly weren't necessary for our family. But he spent money that should have been used for bills and food on things he thinks would be fun to have, use once or twice, and otherwise will just further junk up the house.

After stating that we have no money, he considered the conversation closed and refused to further discuss our money situation, or lack-of-money situation. So, again, I went to bed pissed.
