The crazy stuff my husband does

So, about 1-2 months ago, I was having a Starbucks meeting with a colleague of mine, John Cattermole. We are sipping our coffees, talking about how we can do business. He finally says, "We are wondering what your husband is like."

By we, he means our small business organization at the chamber. I'm one of the youngest members and I think some are still finding it impossible that I am actually married - or, perhaps, maybe I am so quirky that they are imagining my husband to be the most interesting guy on the planet.

Well, my husband IS the most interesting guy on the planet. He does some crazy stuff.

As you can see, we are made for each other:

  • I wake up, stumble into the kitchen, pour myself some coffee, open the fridge, reach for the half and half... Instead, I grab a hold of a cold ceramic surface. Oh, it's the sugar bowl. Wait, what?? Yes. He put the sugar bowl into the fridge.

  • I am running late for an engagement party. I ask my husband if he could put away dinner and clean it up. He says no problem.

    Later That night...

    I come home and the kitchen looks pretty good. I open the fridge and see he did a nice job putting foil over the lasagna. Okay... but for some reason, he put the leftover lasagna noodles... in the fridge... in a colander... uncovered. They feel like rocks.

  • You should see this man load the dishwasher. There are no words; you just have to be there.

  • He says things like, “What if I gave your cat laxatives?”

  • He still doesn't know how to make a pot of coffee.

  • When I upgraded to vista, my video driver kept blacking out, so as a quick solution, I reverted back to my really old video card. A while later, my husband offers me his really nice video card and he will take my old one. At first I am weary… maybe he won’t go through with it. Well, he did, and it was awesome. Less than a week later, he asks me if he can buy a new video card. I should have known!

  • He thinks this is epic:

To the Beach!

I'm quite excited because starting August 29th through Sept 1st, I will be at the beach on vacation. Mark your calendars!

For those who can't make it to the beach this year, I am bringing the beach to you. Plus, I will have photos when I return. Enjoy!

Back Roads

A really hot day here, but it did cool down a bit this evening. The DH and I took the top off the jeep and went driving around the local back roads, ending up in PA.

Other back roads all over the world:

The 45 minute ride was beautiful. In case you've never seen it, here are some attractions.

I Love Marushka

I love Marushka, even though I can never find any information on the artist. This print is in my bathroom, stretched on canvas:


Marushka has been respelled as Marooshka for I believe copyright issues. Other great work:
