The following conversation took place between 1:45pm and 1:46pm on Sunday. I was lying helplessly in bed, in the throes of sickness...James was getting ready to take the girls to church.
Me: 'What if I die before you get back'. Yes, I know, morbid. But don't you wonder sometimes?
James: 'In what terms are we talking?'
Me: 'I dunno know, but seriously, what would you do?'
James: 'I'd drain the pool, throw you in and bury you, then plant a nice garden on top.' And you know he had a smile on his face when he said that.
Me: 'Pshaw, you know thorn bushes would grow there, not flowers.' Cause that's what he deserves for burying me in the backyard.
In which I set myself up, because he just smiles and finishes tying his tie. Punk.
We celebrate our (what year is it?) ummm...8th anniversary in less than a month. Yay for me.

That's how you know you have been married a while. Derek told me (jokingly) to stop talking to him last night at Ash's soccer banquet because he was trying to scout for hot soccer moms and I was curbing his game. He later announced (again to the whole table) that he had come with the hottest mom so he would leave with me too. Boys are dorks.
I think you embellished this just a bit, sweetie. (e.g. adding smiles, somehow relating this to our anniversary, making this sound like you were asking a serious question, implying that I'm some type of serial craigslist killer) My response to trick questions are never going to be serious because there is not a good answer to them. If you're looking for a specific answer then you should work it into the question. Example: if you want to make sure that we would visit your grave and put flowers on it every week, then you should say "if I died, would you put flowers on my headstone every week?" to which I would reply "absolutely I will."...everybody's happy...unless you die.
and what's with this opening line? Is this an episode of 24 or Mad TV with Bobby Lee? I started reading this post and that tick tock of 24 starts going off in my head.
I have to say reading this completely cracked me up.
I am sorry that you're sick though and I hope you feel better soon!
I totally ask Logan that all the time. He's probably really tired of it. Too bad!
I was watching 24 when I was writing this. And the embellishments are only the truth.
I only speak the truf.
Now maybe you'll have the soundtrack to Moulin Rouge playing in your head. Ha.
Hey, if she added embellishments, it only added to the hilariousess of the post. Chalk it up to writer's priviledge!
You guys are too funny!! We should know by now (after 8 freaking years;) that our men are never serious. I can totally hear James saying that;-)
There must be somthing to the whole dieing idea. I get that question too.
Props to James for his answer - it must be in the question!!
Y'all are too funny!
