I have a conundrum

My wife started a new job a month ago, and the company Christmas party is tonight...at 5 fucking o'clock. This is not my first scheduling dilemma of the season. My 7yo had a soccer game during the first Oregon game, and a basketball game during one of the other games, Utah maybe. Both times, I was a good dad and shut my phone off until I caught up to live, and the football gods rewarded me with a UW victory. This is the biggest UW-UO game in history, and probably the biggest game for the program since the 1992 Rose Bowl. Do I.....

    I know you’ll do the right thing (good husband shit) and for that I’m sorry for you. Hopefully you’ll get some but stuff out of it or what ever tickles your shot filled throat.

    I clearly DGAF about my marriage, only my kids, so here’s what I would say. Christmas office parties happen every year. How often do 12-0 seasons?

    Then just buy a dog, worked out great for me.

    While being the devoted husband that you are, you also need to make sure your wife understands the burden you are heroically bearing for her.

    I just read your poast in the other thread, and it sounds like we have the same miserable life. We also have 2/5/7 year olds, and this would be a trifecta of Dwag success for me as well, so this might be the only option. I'm superstitious as fuck, and I'm pretty sure God will smite me with an Oregon plungering if I don't do the right thing here.

    The whole watch the game on the phone might be a good idea. I’m sure it’ll attract other husbands who don’t want to be there and you could position that as making an effort to mix and mingle with her co-workers and spouses co-workers. Make sure you figure out which one is her boss or bosses spouse and work on negotiating a raise. Might be the closest thing to a compromise that you get… either way, God speed.

    See, this is that good person shit I was saying about you. As a potty mouth and proclaimed lover of God, I can tell you he doesn’t give two fucks about a football game.

    Enjoy the Christmas party.

    Make a cameo so her boss sees it, then go home, and tell her you don't need 17 dogs and they can stay outside

    A REAL wife would not have committed to going to a boring office party on a game night. Just started a month ago = "Sorry, I already had plans but will see you at next year's event."
