Goooood Communication

Example conversation btwn this here husband and wife:

W: What did we spend our tax refund on? I was just thinking about it in the bathroom b/c I forgot to bring in Texas Monthly so I had to think about money.

H: a dor.... (fades into silence, started low to begin with)

W: A DorK?

H: (laughing thru a sip just like a sit com) yes, we bought a dork. No, a DOOR.

W: What door? All our doors are still old!

H: (already absorbed back in laptop b/c we own his and hers) We haven't bought it yet, remember babe?

W: I hate the space time continuum.

H: (doesn't even bother to roll his eyes at wife's totally incorrect reference to space time b/c she never took physics, not even in high school, she refers to the negative box as the x-box for godsake!)

The moral? Never try to engage your husband when he in deeply involved in porn. Mike is addicted to two types of porn: Bronco and Land. In all fairness he has a 1968 Bronco that almost runs and loves to blow (a pun, HA) money on the website Tom's Bronco Parts. As for the land the poor contral TX dude still dreams of moving to a small (or large) hill country ranch on the banks of the Comal, the Guadalupe, the Frio or (what the crap) all of them.

Why the play-like posting? I am inspired by friend Jeffrey, a bona-fahde play dude. He is coming to TX to visit and there's a good chance we'll run into each other.

Only 3.5 more school days till summer! Only 7 more days till beach vaca!!
