Ad Gloriam

I sometimes do things ad gloriam. I'll do an extra load of laundry or have the dishes done. Not that they don't need to be done, but I'm a busy person, and they could wait a few more hours. But this way when my husband comes home I can look at him all superior and say:
   'I've still got xxxx, xxxxx, and xxxx to do, that I didn't get done earlier so I could get your dished done.'
It may seem like a dick move, but I never notice that I've done it until after the fact.  And generally it leads to me getting the 30 minutes of child free time I crave; to do dumb shit like blog or shave my legs.
