Do people even wear aprons like that anymore?

I'm not sure what to make of today's strip (though I'll admit that part of the problem might just be that I'm a complete idiot today, as evidenced by how I mixed up two coworkers earlier and have lost most of my ability to process thoughts in any sort of orderly fashion) (I've been kind of stressed lately, sorry).

Anyway.

It totally grates that this guy comes home from work expecting his Happy Homemaker Wife to be all, "Sure, honey, sit back and relax! Have a cold one! I'm only here to cater to your needs!" And yeah, if I were her, I wouldn't make a special trip to the store to pick up a six-pack for him, when he possibly could've just as easily picked one up on his way from work.

On the other hand, though, I can't imagine that she had that many things to pick up and errands to run and didn't do them. Maybe they weren't urgent? Maybe something else came up? Because it is valid for him to go to the store just to pick up beer. Particularly since dinner is probably soon.

So, as is typically the case, they both annoy me.

Luckily, I was easily distracted by the large pile of dishes that Migraina is carrying. What do they need all those dishes for? My theory is that they had a dinner party the previous night, so she's putting away the china, which is stored in a case in the dining room. Just go with me people.
