Best Of…. III

Comments(1) The following post pretty much sums up the relationship between my wife and I. She tries to be serious all the time and I am just a goofball that constantly makes fun of her. I can’t help it. She just makes it so easy sometimes.
She is gullible to the point where I had her go to the deli and ask for Imported American Cheese. The owner laughed in her face and she has never been back since.
One night, while in the parking lot of the local mall, she was trying to use the car key to auto-start the car from quite a distance. I told her that if she was to go over to the metal light pole that she would be able to get the car to start from over 100 feet away. You should have seen her climbing up to the light pole and pushing the buttons on the car key trying to get it started.
For this Best of, I selected the post that has represented my usual conversations with my wife.
Speaking Without Thinking
I wrote about the new kitten we acquired several weeks ago and she has been progressing just like she should. She has her first vet appointment this week. She is now about 12-13 weeks old and full of life.
But what this posting is really about is how I continually get myself into trouble by speaking without thinking. My wife and I were on the sofa watching TV and the kitten had curled up between my wife and I. My wife was gently stroking the kitten’s soft fur. Our conversation went like this……
Wife: She is so soft. So pretty. (softly and lovingly)
Me: Yes she is. (focused on the TV)
Wife: I thought they were supposed to have that really soft and fuzzy hair as a kitten.
Me: I have no idea. (still focused on the TV and now wondering when I became a kitten expert)
Wife: Don’t they do that anymore (very seriously asked)
Me: No, that is a style that went out in the 80’s (very seriously answered)
Wife: Idiot (scoops up the kitten and leaves the room)
