And even if my house falls down I wouldn't have a clue

Today is the first day of my marriage that I am worried about going home.  My wife is going to be angry.
 
I didn't go to a strip club.
 
I didn't get fired.
 
I didn't get my good pants dirty or lose my lunchbox.
 
I went to Le Bernardin for lunch.
 
She won't be mad that I spent $170 on lunch for only myself.  She's going to be mad that I went without her when I've been promising to take her there for months. 
 
I don't know how I'm going to make it through the night without describing the peekytoe crab cake with mustard and creme fraiche sauce or the chocolate-corn dessert with hazelnuts, but I'm going to have to try.
