Conversation

Setting: Me squeezing my fat ass into some jeans and Sweety is peeking at me from the bathroom door.

Me: Blah, blah, blah. (just trying to make small talk so he doesn't notice the gymnastics I'm doing to squeeze into the pants)

And I finally get them on.

Him: Wow. You should get a job as a structural engineer. Or a mass transit consultant.

Me: You know, calling your wife fat is one way to NEVER GET SEX AGAIN.

Him: I didn't say the f-word. I know you hate your job and it seems that you have definite talent in other areas.

Then he closes to door to do his "thinking" on the toilet.

Really, what's not to love?

You crack my shit up.
My husband called me Bucket Head tonight so don't feel bad.

pissy britches - Bucket Head? I like that. I may have to use it on Sweety the next time a nugget falls out of his mouth.

Men are just so sweet, aren't they. I always warn 'Gomer' to be careful not to flush any brain cells when he is doing his "toilet thinking"...LOL!!!!

This is just too funny. I don't know where Seeety gets his sense of humor but its classic. You must have a great sense of humor too. If I said something like that I'd be in DEEP dodo.

txsm - What is it with men and their "office"? That's the first place the newspaper goes in the morning. I prefer to read on the couch.

mcb - Sometimes I think his momma dropped him on his head. He is lucky that I'm hard to offend!

As a person with a structural engineering degree who has done many a gyration to get into ill-fitting jeans, I needed to delurk to tell you your husband may be right.

Hey, it's not a bad thing. My structural engineering degree has helped me get into countless pairs of pants over time -- and unfortunately, increasingly more often in recent years ....

(...he's hilarious!)

Ah yes, thinking on the throne. Sounds like your husband and I might be able to get along.

chookooloonks - It's getting to the point where I may need an advanced degree to shimmy into the jeans! Thanks for delurking!

joe fuel - What is up with that? When I've gotta go I try and be discreet about it. I don't announce my trip to the toilet.

bekah - You know you are right. But who says I'd have to let him finish? I could just get mine and then run away.

bekah - Wow, you must have heard me rehearsing in the mirror!
