Hmmm

Question: What do you think men are thinking about when they are staring off into the distance looking dazed and confused?

Answer: They aren't thinking what you WANT them to be thinking, I can promise you THAT! When asked, they reveal things such as, "Oh, I'm thinking about our neighbors and how we don't talk to them or how they don't talk to us" HUH?

Prior to this, there had been serious conversation about a serious topic (uh nonya) and so my mind was wandering with the flow (and exact flow) of the previous serious conversation.....and I look over and him and think, 'oh goody, what's he thinking about?" Neighbors. Clearing of throat here, Uh Hum. You see, men really ARE on a different planet than we are. Were they even BORN here? I don't know.

There is this ridiculous show called Lucky Louie on HBO. It has horrible cussing and the sexual overtones are so overtoned, they aren't even overtones, they are just sexual. But the show is hilarious. The thinking patterns of the main character are so stereotypical of a man it's just wrong. The stuff he says, the things he does and then bam, he's sweet. It's so man man stuff. It's like me man, me ape, me funny. So I watched a show with my husband, it comes on Sunday nights before Entourage.....and in the show we watched, he called his wife a pretty bad name. I won't even say it here, won't give it credence even though when he said it, I died laughing. Maybe it's his deliverance. I"m not sure. The show is so Archie Bunker, it's done live and the set is so barebones, it's almost like a cult show or something. I digress, so he calls his wife this name and then he goes bazerk with the name calling, takes it to the next level and she just walks out of the room calmly. Then he goes, uh oh, maybe I shouldn't have called her that (ya think?). So we're discussing this show this morning before the boys get up and I say to him, "Do men THINK like that?" to which he threw back his head and LAUGHED. I guess they do! I mean, he would never call ME that name but maybe just maybe he's been calling it to me in his head! That's ok. Minner can vouch for the words I call him in my head ALL the time.....

payback..... Don't men know they should never get into those kinds of conversations with women? I mean, it's a lose lose situation. Poor thing, he admitted nothing to me but he admitted everything to me. Without words. Lucky Louie huh? We'll just see about that.....

I hate hate hate when men do that!!! I all ask "what do are you thinking" and he'll say "I was just thinking about the album cover from the Cars second album and blah blah" and by now my blood is blowing. I have just gone into this very thought provoking situation that needs a resolution. And he says "it will work out" yes it will because I will figure out a way to work it out why you are no help!! And then he falls alseep at the dinner table. Thats nice.
Grrr
