So for some time now my wife has been enamored with oils, her supplier is a company named Essential Oils. As for myself I don’t buy into it quite as wholeheartedly but will admit that some of them have helped with some topically treated wounds.
I don’t say much about it and I go along to get along most times because I’ve found out after being with the same woman for almost 10 years is that you’d better choose wisely the hills you’re wanting to battle on.
Her infatuation over natural remedies isn’t something I’m willing to go to the mat over. (pun intended)
All that being said, this obsession took a new turn about 3 weeks ago when she confiscated my work Yeti mug because she is drinking more water of late and she flavors it with a concoction of oils.
Her justification of the theft was “You have to use a glass or metal cup with the oils because it’ll eat plastic away over time.”
Once again originally I didn’t fret about it because it was still pretty warm here in north Texas and I didn’t mind using some of my old regular mugs for my coffee because as the day got hotter my coffee would cool off and I liked finishing it off in that manner.
But now that we’ve had our 10 days of Autumn allotted to us each year, it’s fairly cold and seems to want to stay that way throughout the day. So I’d like my morning coffee to stay hot for longer than an hour.
So this morning I crept into my bedroom over to my wife’s nightstand and grabbed my Yeti. As I did that my wife’s eyes went wide and grabbed my arm and said “I need that!”
So I pulled my arm away and out of arm’s length I pulled a Bilbo Baggins in TDOS, I showed her my mug and whispered “Mine”.
Good morning coffee drinkers and non-enlightened folks of Offtopia!

I know the pain you feel, I have a large Yeti mug and thermo to fit the rest of the coffee pot into for my work day. Well my woman asked if she could use my mug about a week ago and I haven't gotten it back since but I just ordered a new one for an early Christmas present!

11 RepliesDo you read the Babylon Bee satire articles? If so, it is a synopsis of my views of essential oils. It's a scam, and the fact that it seems to be focusing on and brain washing a certain group of ladies infuriates me even more so. I was married once and understand your feelings toward picking and choosing you battles. That said, I would never stand for this to continue. I'd prove the snake oil practices with scientific and medical journal proof. I can take a lot, but blind stupidity is not one of them. That and she can go get her own stupid yeti thing.
