The extra gallon:

          Have you ever been painting a room or area that you’ve painted before, and you know that it will take at least 2 gallons of paint? When your wife asks how much paint you’ll need you tell her what you know to be a fact. She then asks if you measured the square footage to be sure. With a little white lie you say, “Of course, this isn’t my first rodeo, you know!” You’ve been wanting to say that since you first heard it. Her reply is, “Okay, cowboy, if you’re sure.”  When the project is finished and you still have that extra can of paint that hasn’t been opened you start looking at your options. They won’t take it back because it was a custom color mix, so you look for a place to hide it where she will never find it because you don’t want to hear any “cowboy” remarks. At one time I had my own safe deposit box to hide my miscalculations. Now, I have a full sized storage unit.

“Life is much too important to be taken seriously.”
