If There Were A Top Ten List For Stupid Husband Tricks…
Yesterday I got my hair cut. I like it, it’s a fun, simple bob. Shorter than the last time I had it cut. On the way home the following conversation took place:
Me: So you don’t like my hair?
Mike: I never said that! I said I LIKED your hair. I feel like you ask me questions like that to trick me into saying something stupid.
Me: No, Mike, no one needs to TRICK you into doing that.
*silence*
Mike: Your hair looks nice. It’s like Dorothy Hamill or Kate Jackson in Charlie’s Angels.
Me: *blink* *blink* *gasp* *blink* *blink*
A conversation ensued whereas I pointed out that no woman in her right mind would consider that a compliment. To which he asked where he might actually find one of those. I finally said that I would put it up on my blog and that any woman reading it would NOT find that to be a compliment. He said, “oh great, the BLOG brigade.”
To which I said nothing. I picked up my cell phone and called Miss Britt. And I sent her this picture:
She brought up three excellent points:
1. No, my hair does NOT look like Dorothy Hamill.
2. My hair is very cute.
3. My husband totally showed his age (and, in my opinion, ass).
Doesn’t really matter. I don’t think that any of his thoughts/comments were appropriate knowing that his wife’s birthday is THIS FRIDAY.
Your thoughts?

Clearly, he considers those two women to be cute, so he was comparing you to them because he likes them and he likes you. Sometimes you have to think like a man to understand.

I told my husband this last night and even HE initially laughed and said “What the fuck was he THINKING?!?!”
Then, after about a five minute silence he says, “you know, Dorothy Hamill was kind of a big deal back in her day…”

Wicked Thank you very much! Fortunately, he has planned a date night for Friday (my birthday) and a very nice family party at a restaurant on Saturday. He also bought me a Total Gym (at my request) I’m guessing he feels this entitles him to show his ass.
Avi I read your comment to him and his response was, “that dude RULES.” Although, I’m not sure how I feel about you encouraging him.
Miss B Men. :roll: (What Bug said! LOL)
Bug ThankyouThankyou!!!!

Aww, you look cute as a button!
Whatr would have REALLY been bad is if hubs had said you looked like Lauri Petrie (from the old Dick Van Dyke Show - circa 1961 - LOL)

See a resemblance? LOL

Heh. Between your son and your husband, I’ll just start riots!

Avi Unfortunately, this is true. And, if you say you like Led Zeppelin you might get marriage proposals from both of them. :lol:

Your new hair is ADORABLE!

Marti I happen to be very familiar with the Dick Van Dyke show… wasn’t MTM adorable? Thank God he didn’t compare me to that, although, I might have preferred it to Kate Jackson or Dorothy Hamill, I mean, come on!
Crazy Lady Thank you very much! It’s almost as cute as your new blog design!!! *hint* Everybody go visit Crazy Lady and tell her how cute her new blog is!!!!

I would get together with the rest of the cul-de-sac(Why does this cause me to twitch??)peeps and find a friendly toe truck operator to swing by on party weekends. You’d be amazed at how quickly these guys can rid the “sac” of unwanted hoodlum vehciles.
A littel cash up front keep the Tommy the Toe Truck Operator quiet……

Can’t you bring it up at a Home Owner’s Association meeting?
Or, you should just dress in your skankiest outfit and go hang out with them.

I’m picturing you skulking about the cul-de-sac (damn that IS a bitch to type!) in a black ninja outfit with the Mission:Impossible theme playing in the background. Somehow all their tires end up flattened. Investigators later find Amy innocently sipping coffee in her kitchen, wearing a frilly Donna Reed apron, which hides the icepick in her pocket.
Bwa-ha-ha!

Those neighbors are all kinds of dumb.
January 29, 2007 @ 10:47 am
OMG, I honestly thought on 1 and 2 that you were going to be talking about YOU guys!!
ROTFLMAO at myself :-D

Oh I feel your pain - before we moved, our neighbors use to do that almost every weekend, including parking in front of our house, and blocking our drive. It use to piss the hubs off to no end. It would be one thing if they played good music, and had good beer, but no! They blared the hispanic polka music and threw cheep ass beer cans into our yard. Ugh.

This is the only time I can honestly say that the HOA is your best friend! Take video of this shit and mail it to the Review Board and the cops as well! Get the bastards fined! And for the love of god have everyone who parks in your driveway towed at their own expense!! Yes! Fuck ‘em all!

I like Wicked H’s idea. Thank goodness that you have neighbors like the Future Darwin Award Nominees to keep the heat off of you!
