Couch Chicken
I'm sure everyone has come across this situation in their lives. You and someone else are sitting on the couch you both need to get up, but don't want to. This brings about a game I call Couch Chicken. Here is what happened: Charly just went down after giving up a hard fight of not wanting to clean up or go to bed. We were both ready to relax and watch some TV. I grabbed the remote only to be faced with a worst case scenario...there was a shirt in the way of the cable box. One of us was going to have to get up and move it or we will both be faced to look at a black screen for the whole evening. Which brings us to Couch Chicken. Who would get up? How long can you last? Who is the laziest? I thought for sure I could out last my wife. Well I was wrong! I broke and I broke hard. I thought, "oh she is pregnant I should let her rest." She got into my head. Amateur move Matt. Then when I got up for my walk of shame she showed me how much of a Couch Chicken pro she was and dropped this bomb...WHILE YOU ARE UP?! She is good! So I got up and got her some water. Then to rub it in when I sat back down I left the remote on the table. I am defeated.
