Two Things Funny



Two things made me laugh a little this week.

Blog worthy enough.

The first was that with husband’s new office his secretaries can’t walk to the bank anymore. So he decided that when they have to drive to the bank ( aka everyday)  they will be taking his car since his and mileage and gas. Sounds like a good and right idea right?

Sure it was..until he added:

“So we can’t change cars anymore or share like we do now. You will need to take the older minivan everyday and I will need to take the newer sportier Lexus.”

(silly me asks?) “Why?”

“Well because of course the girls need a really nice car to drive”

(naïve me asks? “Why?”

“Well because they deserve a treat!”

Oh ok! So that’s why!!! Your wife who gave birth to three 10 lb incredibly shrinking midgets and mortgaged your new office on my own line of credit is to sit in the smelly van and not get a treat I guess??? Of course!!! I get it now!!!

Anyways it was super funny. You tend to find these things funny and not offensive after many many years of marriage thank goodness.

2nd funny thing (there were not many so far this week so I am grateful for these two)

Over last 2 months I got manicures. Besides my wedding a first for me. Everyone always says I have amazing nails but not my thing..I keep them short and fashionably well bitten. Not anymore! I got a French manicure Shellac and it is beautiful (and  apparently deadly but oh well)

I am very girly girl about some things and terribly not about other things. I love clothes but don’t really like to shop. I love shoes but only have 5-6 pairs. Same with purses. I like mascara but have no time to apply it properly. I love spas but hate researching massage treatments. I think I look very girly girl but inside I must be part man. My daughter is exactly the same.

All this to say last night I needed to cut my nails because they were too long and I could not type anymore! God it’s hard being a girl. So of course my daughter doesn’t have a nail file. My husband has a nail clipper-but that would not be enough.

I could not believe I did not own a nail file and never have after 41 yrs.! This is honestly pathetic no? I guess I just have good teeth that make the nails look even most days of the week.

And then I remembered! Bear! And so I went to his room and asked to borrow his manicure set (which is in a red convertible car case) and he let me! And then I did my nails just like any normal girl. He asked for it back immediately this morning.

I put “manicure set” on my pharmacy list-another thing I have a love hate relationship. Errands. I told you I must be a man!

Anyways these two things were funny and they made me laugh.

Laughing is good.
