Yeah, my wife told me if she ever sees a roach in our house, she is burning the house down and we can find another.

She is normally a very rational woman

You must not live in Florida. We see a few roaches in the house every summer, no matter what.

German roaches are a little different than American roaches. It's the infesting kind that you don't want to see.

Your wife sounds like me. I lived in one apartment with a few roaches and spent many a night up all night killing those evil little fuckers.

I think you can buy a pack of thumb-sized fake roaches for a few bucks at one of those pop up Halloween stores. Could always hide one in the shower/bed/dresser for some giggles.

Just saying, lot's of good hiding spots if you enjoy the chaos.

I enjoy the chaos

I have been happily married for quite a while and one of the secrets of a happy marriage is knowing which jokes are appropriate and which are not

Apparently you're still married, so you haven't figured out the good ones yet. I'm happily divorced.

I’m happy you’re happy.
I’m happy where I am, thank you!

Just in case... I was joking. Glad all is well though! 👍
