Our Perfectly Balanced Relationship

October 19, 2007

A conversation Roger and I had today, while standing on the property of a home our realtor had just shown us:

"It's YOUR job to look before you leap, and it's MY job to be impulsive!"

If this were the case, a lot more people would play the lottery

A young couple were discussing the money they had just lost by playing the state lottery:

"Well, I guess that's $10 donated to the Texas Education Fund."

"Does that mean it's tax-deductible?"

"I don't know if this is going to give me the squirts...but I just drank some V8 that I found in the back of the fridge with an expiration date of October 2004."

"Bashura is Asian for "trash"."


Two thoughts:
1. Basura is Spanish for "trash."
2. Asian is not a language.

"Why are people in Wal-Mart always fat and wearing sweats?"

At the risk of sounding like June Cleaver, hovering over our home's single wooden radio, which is perched atop our breakfast table:

Late Friday night, I listened to a girl call a nationally syndicated radio program because it was her 21st birthday. She announced to THE ENTIRE NATION that her 21st birthday goal was to have a one-night stand.

Roger and I looked at each other like, "Did she really just say that on the radio?" And then I thought, "I wonder how many guys are going to be calling the radio now, trying to get her number?" And now I'm wondering, "Was she successful?"

I began thinking about the human heart, and thought I would open my comments section as a soundboard today. What do you think?

Overheard from a little boy, perhaps three years old, who ran into the living room and exclaimed to his grandma, "Granny! There is a scrotum in the room!"

He had just been learning about his body parts.

I was twenty-seven before I knew what a scrotum was.
