Well today he went out for a bit and came home more excited than I've heard him in AGES.............
John screams - SUE - SUE - come quick - come see what I found - YOU.ARE.NOT.GOING.TO.BELIEVE.THIS.
Suzan says - what did you find? ( as I cock my head with a happy heart - what could it be ? a curbside treasure? a priceless heirloom? a crate?)
John screams - YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS - HONESTLY - I CAN'T BELIEVE IT MYSELF
Suzan says - oh can't wait - I'm coming
John says - THIS IS REALLY SOMETHING ELSE - YOU'RE GOING TO BE SO THRILLED!!!
I hurriedly put my paint brush down - brush my hands on my joggers - close the paint lid
SUZAN!!!!!
I'm coming, I'm coming - and I run down ( literally run down ) the hallway filled with anticipation.
And there he stands with 8 packages of this
Suzan says - Well, John, you're 100% right - I don't believe it
John says - Are you kidding me - his hands are flying all over the place - he's practically dancing - 8 bucks for 2 steaks?
John says - I haven't seen them this cheap yet this summer
John says - WHAT A STEAL - THANK GOD I HAPPENED TO GO INTO THE GROCERY STORE
John says - What's the matter - you don't think it's a good deal? - they're rib, your favorite
So now we all know what rocks John's boat - ( I say " we " because believe me I am just as surprised by this as you ) All the money I've wasted on lingerie - Oh I could just kick myself
When the answer was so simple really -
And since I'm a DIY'er anyway -
maybe I should pull a LADY GAGA and make myself a meat dress
Think they're might be enough steaks to make the 2nd one - and if there isn't well
THEY'RE.ON.SALE.TWO.FOR.EIGHT.DOLLARS.I.CAN'T.BELIEVE.IT.OH.MY.GOD.SUZAN
so I could always pick up a few more.................
P.S -
John says - maybe I should start a blog
Suzan says - forget it - you wouldn't keep up with it for a week - and you have to work at it to get followers.
John says - I don't know about that - I think I could just get everyone's husbands as followers.

I should not eat or drink when I am reading your posts, I almost choked on a strawberry lol
ReplyDeleteMen are so strange, the weirdest things get them exicted. This post was hilarious, John is so funny. You guys should have your own sitcom, I would watch it every week. hugs Tobey
ps yes I meant you in my post, your my alibi girlfriend, unless we do something together then were screwed lol hugs Tobey
LMAO!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMen really are from Mars! All that's missing are the potatoes, lol!!
LMAO! My husband is the same about canned beans or canned tomatoes. Maybe he should have married a vegetable garden instead of me!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder of what I'm missing being single. Maybe you should put a freezer in the bedroom instead of the dresser you've been working on! I don't think anyone has done a freezer makeover yet. ~ Maureen
ReplyDeleteThis just cracks me up....you're right you just never know what's going to rock their boats....amazing, simply amazing, lol....
ReplyDeleteNow this is a meaty post! You could meet him in the meat department and do the happy dance. Wow-what a turn on. I am sure you were beyond thrilled. Lordy, don't let him see Lady Gaga or he will be licking the screen- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteNow, do you believe that men are from Mars? :) It's usually the simple things, unless they're in a mid-life crisis wherein they start working out, buying new clothes, a red sports car and lots of gold. :)
ReplyDeleteFunny!
xo

Oh my gosh, Suzan! I'm going to have to invest in some Depends and remember to put them before I read your posts, girl! LOLOLOL! You SOOOO need your own TV show or book deal or something! These conversations are absolutely priceless!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I know that my husband isn't alone in his insanity .... and isn't alone in his meaty, manly world.
hehehe!
xoxo laurie
Loved that post... I nearly spat my morning tea reading this... I agree it's a solution to save money... On the other hand, the lingerie collection here this fall is so lovely... I'm going to eat less meat instead... Hey! That may be the reason why I'm single!
ReplyDeleteHi Magali - ( you're a no reply blogger )
DeleteStick with the lingerie, it's prettier lol
XOX
Hilarious! My husband gets excited about stuff like that too! PVC pipe from the hardware store is a thrill for him!! Thanks for the morning laugh!
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing so loud I made the dog look up. Thank you for sharing at the hop xo
ReplyDeleteSuzan,
ReplyDeleteThis is so funny. I laugh so hard every time I read your stuff. What is just as funny are everyone's comments. I like the depends comment, or maybe Magali who is single. Too, too funny. My family just stares at me every time I tell them one of your stories. My comes home excited about the same stuff. He thinks he's such a great shopper also. He thinks he can do so much better then me at the grocery store, except he will buy 8 bottles of bbq sauce because it is on sale and he has a coupon. What we need is some meat to use with the bbq sauce. Sorry we can not live on bbq sauce alone.
Have a great week, and thanks for sharing.

LOL thanks Debi - between your hubby and mine - they could make a mean bbq'd steak!!!
