Last night my father-in-law dropped by to visit. He received a notice from the county that his fireplace wood is stacked improperly--it's not. He went on to say that the neighbors across the street need to trim some oak trees that have gotten too large.
FIL: Some of those trees are over 200 years old.
Wife: Yeah, they were there when I was a kid.
Me: Then they must be over 300 years-old.
LOL, my wife laughed harder than anyone, but I got smacked on the arm anyway. I feel I was set up. I mean, 200 years ago James Madison was the US president and people were making fun of Dolley. Of course the trees were there when my wife was a kid! I was set up--how could I NOT make a silly comment in that situation? But there are no laws against that sort of entrapment, so I'll have to do something expensive this weekend to make amends for my silliness...maybe flowers.
Haha, aw. As long as she laughed.

ReplyDeleteAnd a home cooked meal (or dinner out if that's not your thing) ;)
ReplyDeleteHAHHAHA! oh, the cost of silliness! :D forget flowers, get her a good tub of ice cream! hehe!
ReplyDeleteYes ice cream! :D just what kym said. :) flowers are nice too .. get her both! :P
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! Yes.. flowers and chocolates!
ReplyDeleteclothed much, a modest fashion blog
omg... funny!!! That really crack me up too!
ReplyDeleteAnd cake, too! :D
ReplyDeleteHAHAA that was funny! i don't think you need to do anything expensive, you already gave her a good laugh-priceless LOL
ReplyDeletexx
Hahahhahaha, flowers are nice, indeed! But if she laughed, then it probably doesn't have to be THAT expensive.
ReplyDeleteIf she hadn't... then, mister, you'd be in for some trouble!
haha. funny guy.
ReplyDeletewell, every woman loves flowers, so she cant resist that:)
Flowers sound great! :D
ReplyDeletelol. but your wife laughed. that didn't mean she was angry, right?
ReplyDelete"silly can be expensive" - tell me about it! hahaha
ReplyDeleteAWWW. but she laughed! ok still, buy her flowers... it will make her feel good! :)
Really, Ric, I love your sense of humor! :-) Some situations just cry out for a slide remark, and if all the people involved were laughing it is so okay! :-)
ReplyDeleteSome silly fun always help to brighten up a otherwise ordinary day.
ReplyDeleteIt gives me a chuckle too, haha. ^_^
yea i think flowers will do ;)
ReplyDeletelol. how about a homecooked meal with you cleaning up afterwards, that would be nice!
ReplyDeleteoh and just giving up an update on the jewelries, it's taking a bit longer cuz I ran out of supply for the wrapping, but I will ship it this weekend! I promise!
Haha... aww... you're so sweet to think of getting your wife flowers coz you "made fun" of her. If it were my hubby, he would still be laughing at his own joke thinking he's very funny. =\
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing your wife keeps you in line. Otherwise you'd be out of control! ;)
ReplyDeleteHey mister Rick!!! I'm back! I can't believe how long I've been gone from blogging. Well it was definitely for a good reason. Baby boy is my #1 priority. No stress, no drama, just love love love. Christmas is going to be AWESOME!!!
Thanks for all your sweet comments. I hope you have a great weekend!
I'm trying to figure out the part where the county would send out a notice about improperly stacked firewood? Really? And how are they defining properly stacked firewood? I think the notice is even funnier than the joke you made about your wife. :-)
ReplyDeleteawwwww.... how cute!
ReplyDeletehehe
ReplyDeletehey! I sent you an e mail and it kept on bouncing back saying delivery failure! anyways sure, I can add the necklace. I'll send you a paypal when I got a chance :D
ReplyDeleteand yeah I don't think I'd want a dude plastered on my ass come and think of it...
that's so nice of you to make amends. some men just take this lightly and brush it off assuming the wife will 'forget.' women never forget. which brings me to a HUGE disadvantage coz i usually forget. WONK WONK.
ReplyDeleteYou were right... the heels were too tall. I'm all off center now and I guess I can't handle the 5" heels anymore. I bought the flats instead. They were really cute though. You should definitely let your wife walk out of the house in those! ;)
ReplyDeletehaha...now that was an awkward moment afterwards, I'm sure. :-p
ReplyDeletehaha! yeah...flowers and a bunch of chocolates ^_^
ReplyDeleteoh..flowers are just so sweet:)
ReplyDeleteHey that's awesome that you bought perfume for your wife. Are you surprising her? Or did she see it and want it? My sister checked and you will definitely be getting a free travel size. They are even prettier in person. And they smell so fresh. They don't smell like cake though... actually citrus and roses. Very natrual. I have allergies so most perfumes and colognes bother my sinuses a lot. I literally had this in my face all day (I was helping with the packaging) and it didn't bother me at all. Thanks for the support!
ReplyDeletehehe good one!
ReplyDeletehey rick, thanks for checking in! i'm alright. the fire was across the bay in the peninsula. very scary though because it could happen anywhere!
