Conversations Between Spouses
My husband and I have some very funny conversations. If you were a fly on our walls you’d hear the following:
I had to call Doug at work (he works in a grocery store) to ask him to bring home milk for the Doodlebug. It went something like this:
Store Clerk: Good evening, Copps South, this is Amber!
Me: Hi, Doug please.
Store Clerk: Just a moment.
Me: Thank you.
<bad on hold music>
Doug: This is Doug.
Me: Hey,we need milk. Bring some home, okay?
Doug: Who is this?
Me: Umm..the girl who wore a white dress and said “I do” to you, five years ago. Ring any bells?
Doug: Hey! How the hell are ya?
We didn’t have any groceries in the house and I was contemplating what to make for dinner:
Me: So, what should we make for dinner tonight?
Doug: I dunno. What do you have a taste for?
Me: I dunno. Whatever.
Doug: Well, should we go to the store?
Me: I’ll go if you stay here with Dawson. He’s terrible in the store.
Doug: No, I’ll go. I don’t mind.
Me: You don’t wanna stay with him, because he’s crabby…that’s it, isn’t it?
Doug: You don’t wanna stay either!!! Let’s all go together.
Me: Umm..no seriously. It won’t take that long.
Doug: Let’s just order pizza and we’ll both stay with him.
Me: I’ll diddle ya for who gets to go to the store. I don’t want pizza.
Doug: Diddle? On the dart board? We don’t have a dart board.
Me: Damn. Paper, rock, scissors then?
In the car on our way to have our pictures taken at church for the directory:
Doug: I hate having pictures taken. I hope this doesn’t take long.
<Dawson whining in his car seat>
Me: Umm…..I think you and Dawson should go have your pics taken. I’m going to Jeepers Gin Mill. (a bar nearby)
Doug: Feck that! I’m going to the bar. You wanted to take these pictures, not me!
Me: But honey, I barely drink and I think I deserve a break. You won’t even miss me. Tell the photographer to come to Jeeper’s he can take my pic there and edit me in.
Doug: Yes, then I’ll tell him to leave the bottle of Budweiser in your hand so Father Trempe can see how you really are!
Me: Grrrrrrrrr!!!!!
