Two weeks ago my wife declared that since we always do something with her father on FD we would have Saturday as my day this year.

She said for me to figure out what I wanted to do. Then it was radio silence till last night. She said what am I cooking you for FD? We had just eaten and I had not really thought about it.

Then today, I wake up. Ready to go around 8. She sleeps in. I could have worked. She comes out of the bedroom about noon. Asks what I want to do. I said nothing I guess.

My son leaves, he had plans with friends. My daughter wants to go over to our friend's place to play. Wife decides we will grill and cook by their pool. I say I would like to do some wings. Wife says she doesn't know how, I offer to cook them. We dilly dally around and don't get wings. Get to friends house. She makes me a drink. It's after 4 and have had nothing all day to eat. Finally she cranks up the grill.

She is unsure how to tell if chicken breasts are done. I end up cooking. I like to cook, just had not planned on it today.

We swim, and were supposed to play games but we left.

We get home and she sees the disappointment on my face. She seems to think it was a perfect day. I say it was ok. She and I argue about it.

AITA?

All I wanted was to not plan the day, and for it not to be an afterthought. Also wanted the kids there.
