That's it! That's the answer!

Unclear from your post, Starrman, whether you're in the market today for more well intentioned pablum and watered down sugar or if you have the stomach for a few plain words served straight. First, your recent posts already provided preview of your "rotting... self esteem".

Maybe take over more of your wife's load of household chores, like do the shopping, the laundry, maybe some cooking, whatever you don't normally do. Doing the shopping will actually get you out of the house, too.

Maybe write down all the fix-it jobs you've been meaning to do around the house, from small stuff (replace the light ...[text shortened]... love you for this (I'm sure she already does, but more sparkle in her eye is always good).
I'm not, but I do have a long term partner so the same can be said. These are actually all fairly good ideas, there's nothing that motivates me like increasing the likelyhood of getting sex.

You're stuck on the couch? I thought you had a kid.

ZOMG, ignore this babble and get yourself a new computer game!

Embrace your time between jobs, go retro and re-complete some older stuff... eg. Vice City, San Andreas etc etc...

Maybe play 50/50 and say that for every level you complete you will send off another CV to another useless job agency.

OMG, you bolded my post, GB? You know, you are a very presumptuous man.

Don't you dare do that again. DO NOT make me an example. I can kid around with Starrman. He knows I'm messing with him.

Your use of bold is annoying to me to no end. I'm serious.
