The Cool Wife

In every office, every group of married men really, there is one wife all of the men are jealous of. It's not that she is hotter than the others, not because she has legs that go on for days, it's because she let's her husband get away with things the other wives do not. She could careless when she finds porn on the browser, she buys her husband tickets to a hockey game for Christmas and thinks it's funny when he calls drunk from a strip club downtown at an office buddy's going away party...in other words, she's the "Cool Wife." Now I cannot compete with the other wives at the company my husband works at in any other way, they are typically gorgeous, perfectly groomed in their designer duds carrying their coach purses with their perfectly manicured hands. When they hear that I'm in the arts they say " well that's nice," at the holiday party this year, I asked one of them if I should dress up, she told me that they were all wearing jeans... when I got there they were all wearing dresses. But, apparently, I have beat them in a different way, you see, I am the "Cool Wife." The men were talking about Valentine's Day at the office and all scrambling to figure out something to do for their wives when they all stumbled upon a burlesque show not far from us. Of course the men would love to see it but none of their wives would let them, not only did I tell the husband he can go, but that I'd go too and we'd make that our Valentine's Day date. You mean your letting your husband watch practically naked women do sexy things on stage as part of your V-day date? Yup, that's why I'm the "Cool Wife."
