Take up golf (not recomended by me period)

Learn to live with the bordem

Or do extra work

It's time to get a couple kegs, invite all the ladies over and party down until a half hour before she comes home !! Then you do a quick half hour tidy... she'll never be the wiser !

DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!!!!!! It takes at least three hours to clean up if you are drunk. Whatever you do, DON'T LIE DOWN! you will wake up to a pissed off significant other.
Your best bet is to party at someone else's house. Make sure anyone who may have their number in her phone has their phone off. If she asks where you were, tell her you had a (insert acronym here) report to finish at work and you are exhausted. It is always good to have a couple of memos or "official" documents from work in your pocket as she will inevitably find them while snooping. If you are prepared before you get wasted there is nothing to worry about.

All this plotting and scheming to fool the wife. I was going to go for the moral high ground, but I think I'll stick to the practical: why not just shoot yourself and get it over with?
