A Little Common Sense?

Dear Hubby,
I appreciate you doing the dishes, really. I wasn't just saying it out of spite. But I don't appreciate it when I tell you ahead of time to save me some hot water in the shower and then you go do the dishes while I'm in the shower effectively rendering your short shower pointless. You might as well have just stood in there and drained the hot water tank while you were at it. Because when you did the dishes you not only took away all the hot water, but all the water pressure as well making it doubly hard to wash my long hair (which you wanted).
But the kicker is when I come out and tell you that you used all the hot water you act like it's my fault somehow. And when I ask you 5 minutes later why you're mad at ME for calling you on your lack of common sense you say that it's because I haven't forgiven you yet. What? Is my forgiving you the prerequisite for you feeling sorry for something? Or is it that you don't like feeling guilty so if it can somehow be my fault you don't have to think about the fact that you didn't think before you did the dishes?
Thanks for starting my day off great.
Your cold wife
