My husband now knows I have a blog
| Only a few years later and my husband finds out I have a blog. Naturally, I've mentioned this to him, but no response. Either he didn't know what a blog was, or didn't want to know. But here is what he said when he read the 100 Things about Me: Silence until #35 Response to #35 - I firmly believe that croutons are evil pieces of dried bread. HIM: I LOVE croutons! ME: Yes, I know. Response to #37 - I love misty, foggy, cold days. And frogs. But not those weird 1970’s figurines. Only the real live ones. HIM: You like those weird 1970's figurines? ME: No. I do NOT like those weird 1970's figurines. I like the REAL LIVE frogs. HIM: What weird 1970's figurines are you referring to? ME: I guess those weird (we used the word "weird" alot in this conversation.) pottery ones with the weird glazes. HIM: Blank. ME: Like the ones with the big eyes. Like the ones that hold brillo pads in their mouth! HIM: Oh yeah. ME: But those are cool. I would totally have one of those. Response to #41 - My husband and I met when I was a cocktail waitress wearing an outfit similar to a Playboy Bunny’s of the 60’s. He fell in love with me for my mind. Now he just wishes I would shut up. HIM: Laugh. (No denying it. Just laughing.) Response to #45 - I put on at least ten different outfits before I get dressed up to go out and then leave them on the floor until the next day. HIM: This is SO true. ME: WhatEVer. Response to #48 - I do not enjoy cooking. At all. Not even toast. If I can’t rip open a bag or box to nourish myself then forget it. Torture would be to watch the Cooking Channel. HIM: REALLY?! The cooking channel would be torture for you?! (And he's seriously asking me this.) ME: Um. Yeah. (Thinking where the hell has he been for the last 12 years?) Response to #55 - I love, love, love red wine. Good thing I have a teetotaller husband. Not. HIM: Teetotaller husband! Hmph. ME: (He is! You can totally tell by the "Hmph".) Response to #56 - Torture is to have to stand in line- Unless there are sparkly pretties dangling in front of me. Which weirdly enough, there never is. HIM: There are pretty sparkly things at True Value Hardware when you stand in line. ME: What? No there isn't. HIM: Yes. The windchimes. ME: Those don't count! I'm talking about BEjeweled things! (Not to be confused with BeDazzled.) Sparkly! *Rolling of eyes* Men! Windchimes. Ha! Response to #59 - I have the most hideous driver’s license photo in all the world. HIM: No you don't. ME: Yes I do. HIM: No you don't. ME: I do. Response to #68 - I’m a fishwife as well. HIM: Nobody knows what a fishwife is but you. ME: Here. Response to #69 - I believe that it should be a mandated and enforced law that one should not be allowed to comment or narrate during a movie while at the theatres. HIM: You were really chatty the other night over at so and so's. ME: That's because she's really chatty during movies, so I didn't even try. (And that doesn't even count. It was at somebody's house. NOT the movie theater. Duh.) Response to #73 - I’m told I make Elvis faces/sneer when I put on makeup. HIM: No, you make Elvis faces when you're concentrating on something. You puff out your lips when you put on make up. ME: Oh. *Making Elvis face to think about it. Response to #76 - I have the smartest and cutest kids on the planet. Really. HIM: I thought you were going to say ME! ME: I've already mentioned you a million times in this list. HIM: Yeah, and you called me a teetotaller! ME: (See how it's all about him?) Response to #81 - My favorite bachelor was Andrew Firestone. HIM: Andrew Firestone? I thought you didn't like him. ME: No. I liked him. HIM: No, you said he wasn't good looking. You liked some other guy . . . ME: No. I liked him. HIM: Are you sure? ME: I'm sure. HIM: Yeah, I don't know. I could have sworn you liked some other bachelor. ME: Andrew. Firestone. Response to #87 - My worst body part is my stomach. I look at chicks with belly rings with great envy. HIM: Sympathy aaawwwws. ME: Smile Response to #88 - I have many dreams that involve Noah Wiley, George Clooney and Justin Timberlake. Why Justin Timberlake, I’m not sure. HIM: NOAH WILEY?! ME: He's hot. HIM: NOAH WILEY?! Me: Yeah. He's HOOOOTTTTTTTT. HIM: Chokes me. (Click here. Pretend that Brad Pitt is Justin Timberlake and you are there with me in my dreams.) Response to #89 - I don’t chew my fingernails, but my fingers are always in my mouth fiddling with my nails. HIM: You do too bite your nails. ME: No I don't. HIM: Yes, you just don't tear your nails. ME: See these? They're fingernails. I don't bite them! Response to #92 - I am feisty if you screw with me. HIM: I screw with you. ME: Yes, and I'm feisty with you. HIM: True. Response to #98 - Hard alcohol makes me psycho. I stay away from hard mixed drinks and shots. HIM: You do to do shots! ME: When? When have you seen me do a shot? HIM: Blank. *Apparently that one time 12 years ago stuck in his mind . . . Which is why I stay away from hard alcohol. Response to #100 - I cannot pronounce “tae kwon do” correctly. You would not believe how often this term comes up where I need to say it. Mainly just to torture myself. I’m incredibly hateful that way. HIM: Yes you can! Say "Tae Kwon do"! ME: (I say it really fast and blur the words so he can't tell what I'm saying. I want to pronounce it TWY-Kan-do. Now do you see? Now do you see how often "Tae Kwon Do" comes up in conversation? A lot more than you think!) |
