Splurge and Get the Upgrade…it's worth it.
Posted by TCombs in 
When going through the process of building a new home, I’m sure you are bombarded with upgrades. Everyone knows that newer homes these days are not built the way homes of the 1950′s used to be. Let’s face it….we are paying more for cheap shit. When building a new home the standard is pure suck. And what’s worse….in order to get the good quality shit…we have to sell our souls to the devil. Even worse than that, we end up paying more for shit that is more visually pleasing than a necessity. Now….I’m a girl, and a girlie girl at that and I’m ALL FOR spending money on senseless, useless crap as long as it looks good, I have an entire closet proving this fact… but let me take a step back for a minute and talk about something that is a necessity. An upgrade you should go for when building a house.
An upgrade that will make your life, and your marriage better.
Good quality locks. Let me be more specific. Good quality locks on the master bedroom door. Period.
You KNOW what I’m talking about.
The locks on these new houses are a joke. I shouldn’t have to install a deadbolt on my bedroom door to keep my children away. When you click that lock, you should be able to confidently get it on without the fear of your young children walking in. We all KNOW the kids have RADAR. It happens every.damn.time. You finally get that chance to sneak off, all your clothes are off and your getting your groove on, faceplanted into the pillow to keep things quiet because you know this has to be a sneaky little quicky.. and then BAM…the door is open….
You’ve never moved so fast in your LIFE. You hit the deck as if you suddenly live in the ghetto and somebody just open fired on your ass…..you start trying to cover your bases “Oh what, is it that you needed, I was just massaging your Mommy’s back, and discussing life then we dropped something on the floor, and it was hot up here, that’s why my shirt was off, and I’m not sure why my pants were off, but just get out of here and I’ll explain later”…..meanwhile your wifes naked body is slinking across the floor like a snake trying to find the nearest corner to hide in. HOW HUMILIATING.
ALL THIS AWKWARDNESS can be avoided if you just upgraded that one little lock when you built your house. These are things your builder is not going to tell you. For just an additional $10 you can save yourself the embarrassment of your 8 year old walking in on you boning down with your wife. Trust me on this. Upgrade your locks.
Not that I’ve experienced this before or anything….
