Superb stuff, I just got in after the day from hell and that put a huge grin on my face. I recognise and have used many of the tactics in the article, the one big problem I used to have was when the wife and I used to work quite different hours which gave me a lot of gaming time but also got me in trouble if the chores didn't get done. One thing I noticed though is that I could spend 5 hours gaming but as long as I had my hands in the kitchen sink when she walked through the door I was fine, but if I did 5 hours of chores and was sitting at my PC when she walked in, I would be in all kinds of trouble
