The joy of IM

My friend Red and her beau, who we shall call Cih-ho-te, had this conversation over instant messenger today. Had this convo happened in person it probably wouldn't have ended quite as funny as it does.
It's kind of long...but totally worth it in the end! Thank you Red and Cih-Ho-Te for giving me something to blog about today.

RED says:
I just walked out into the hallway to get a file and the copier salesman was out there.
RED says:
He said, "Wow! I love your shirt!"
RED says:
"Pink is my favorite color!"
RED says:
Huge guy. Gruff voice. Not gay sounding.

CIH-HO-TE says:
Mine too!

RED says:
So, I kind of giggled at him and when I walked past him again he said, "Please don't get me in trouble. I didn’t mean anything by that..."
RED says:
WTF????

CIH-HO-TE says:
No kidding isn't that some type of harassment?

RED says:
What?
RED says:
Are you kidding?

CIH-HO-TE says:
Ok so why would someone say that if they didn't mean anything by that
CIH-HO-TE says:
No I'm not kidding that has to be sometype of harassment at your job
CIH-HO-TE says:
That doesn't make sense
CIH-HO-TE says:
Have you saw him there before
CIH-HO-TE says:
?
CIH-HO-TE just sent you a nudge.

RED says:
He doesn't work for the hospital. I've seen him before, but I've never talked to him.
RED says:
I didn't know what to say so I just laughed and told him that I wouldn't tell anyone that pink was his favorite color.
RED says:
Then after I got back to my office I realized how weird it was.
RED says:
I don't think it's harassment to tell someone that you like their clothes. I just think it's bizarre.

CIH-HO-TE says:
That is wierd

RED says:
I'm not even showing cleavage today!

CIH-HO-TE says:
But he said he liked your shit! Then backed off and changed it to a pink shirt
CIH-HO-TE says:
Hmmmmmm?

RED says:
Ummm. I have a pink shirt on.

CIH-HO-TE says:
I'm just saying I was born at night but if I told someone I like their shit I am either a sick freak or I want to get into her pants

RED says:
I think you need to re-read what I told you he said.
RED says:
He said he liked my PINK SHIRT!

CIH-HO-TE says:
Oh I thought it was shit not shirt
CIH-HO-TE says:
Ooops

RED says:
My shit is pretty fabulous, though.

Friggin Fun Friday

Yes, I know. Another 'Thriller' video. I just can't help myself! I must insist that you watch and laugh your ass off. I completely agree with my friend Red, who somehow found this on youtube, the tranny IS the best part of the video. I really wish I knew if these fellas had to audition for their parts - maybe wikipedia knows! ENJOY!

Mr. and Mrs. Jarhead meme

So good ole luvthebearcats tagged me to do a meme. Look at her go in all of her crazy bloggin knowledge and ways. This is 8 things that are about Jarhead and me.

1. We met in a bar in Maryville, Missouri named Molly's.

2. I invited him over to an after party at my pad and when my friend Berta showed up she she walked in, saw him, and went the other way. She was a waitress at Molly's and he had annoyed the HELL out of her that night.

3. We have been married for 3 years. Dated before that for 5.

4. He enjoys recanting how he got to stay at my place the first night we met. There was a game of darts, a bet, and a 'Oops, forgot to mention that I was in a dart league when I was in the Marines'. He didn't get any so I really won in the end.

5. He forced me, 'Hippy Tree Hugger', to go hunting with him when we first started dating. I did not enjoy seeing a cute little bambi being taken out. I did enjoy looking at all the insides though. He likes to tell that story too. 'She didn't like seeing it die but then she wants me to cut open the stomach so we can see what it ate'.

6. At the end of our wedding day Mr. Jarhead almost got into a fight with a guy who was a REAL winner. The only reason he didn't get into said fight was that while they were walking UP the stairs luvthebearcats jumped on his back to keep the fight from happening. Man she's good.

7. I got into a bad car accident last year with our (at the time) 10 week old akl. They closed the road to traffic because of it. Mr. JH gets up to where the Lotawanna 5-0 is sitting and tells him that his wife and child were in the car accident and he needs to get by. L 5-0 says no way sir - if you go I will arrest you. Mr. JH doesn't care what the coppa says and starts to drive down the road. I BELIEVE L 5-0 starts yelling and pulling his weapon (really...your weapon? go back to hick town brotha). That's about the time my ambulance driver calls him to let him know where they are taking me and akl. The law was takin him down!!


8. We are ALSO sexy bitches.

Locks I Loved

Last weekend I did something that I have been looking forward to doing for about 5 years now. What is that you ask? Go on an exotic vacation? Buy a new house? Get a dog? Negative. Those sound nice buy what I did was WAY...I mean WAAAAAAAAY more exciting.
I've been growing my hair out for those 5 years. My goal was to get it as long as I could. I'm talking Crystal Gale here. This is what my hair looked like before last weekend.



I have been itching for something new to do with this long ass hair for some time now. I decided that IF i was going to do something I'd go all the way. Cut it ALL off. I decided it was time to give my hair to Locks of Love. LOL takes a minimum of 10 INCHES (yes that's almost a foot!) Here is what my hair looks like now - MINUS 10 inches. Oh and just enjoy the added cuteness of akl :)


WOW someone needs eye makeup on..and it's NOT the baby.

Hey, Hey - You, You - I wanna be your girlfriend!

So this weekend (had akl realized it) she may have found her first boyfriend. It looks like she takes after her mother - she attracts older men.

Big J, as we shall call him, was 3 going on 4. Just to be clear there was no holding hands, making out, googly eyeing each other - akl didn't really catch the 'love' vibe being thrown her way.

Her little BF did carry her little pint sized chair around from the front of the house to the back so that they could sit next to each other. 'I got nother hand' he says and grabs her chair. He's all nonchalant about it. He didn't take her chair because he 'liked' her is was just because he had a free hand. Oh boys and the games they play.

Then as the fireworks exploded - these were real, not any implied fireworks between the children - he needed to move his chair as close as humanly possible to hers. She of course played coy and kept getting up to wander around and point at things. She knows how the play 'the game' too.

I would take a fair bet that Jarhead is already worried :)
