Just today, my brother Mitchell and I had a conversation about my upcoming nuptials with Mark. My brother is a sarcastic smart ass just like me. We started out talking about the cake and ended up discussing fashion, or his lack of it, and what he'll wear when he t
Convo with my bro:
(Commenting on a post of an OSU cake for our wedding)
Me: I love it, but we are going with cupcakes. We will OSU them up though!
Mitch: Can I dress like Jim Tressell? Sweater vest?
Me: Sure
Mitch: I've done that look many times before.
Me: Sadly, you're right! 😏
Mitch: you're a bridezilla! 😳
Me: that doesn't make a bridezilla! It makes me the fashion police!😭
I recently spent the weekend in Coshocton at the Heart of Ohio Quilters Guild Retreat. I found out exactly what some of my friends think of me. Apparently it's not for my intelligence and good looks but for my hobbies!
Today's convo:
Me: Hi Patty!
Patty: hey!
Me: ready to sew?
Patty: yeah but just remembered something
Me: what?
Patty: I just took one look at you and realized I forgot my wine!
Me: Really that's what you think of when you see ?
Patty: maybe!?!?!?
Me: 😳😳😳😳😳😳
As I mentioned, I have been going to this retreat for like 15 years. So, it made perfect sense when I blurted this out in front of strangers!
Convo upon arriving at the hotel.
Me: what room are we in?
Barb: room 202
Me: I've slept in this room before
Barb: me too
Me: truth be known I've probably slept in every room here!
Barb: 😳
Me: hmmm .. I guess that didn't sound good to the people who don't know me!😏
Sometimes, well all of the time, I just never think before I speak! As if you need more evidence than the last convo!
Another moment in the lives of Denise and Mark
To the tree guys...
Mark: we're leaving for a few
Tree guys:ok
Me: it should only be 45 minutes. We're going across the street to hospital for lunch.
Tree guys: not a problem.
As we walk away...
Mark: you know they're laughing at us.
Me: why?
Mark: they think we're old because are going to the hospital to eat!
Me: 😳
Of course, there are also those moments that only happen to us! We are always just one moment away from hilarity and comedy!
Me: honey can you come here?
Mark: what's up?
Me: look at rod in my closet. It's starting to bow. Can you fix it? I want to be proactive and take care of it before it collapses
Mark: let me look.
(Manly inspection)
Mark: yep! I'll just put a support in the middle!
Me: great!
(Mark walks away)
***boom****
Both: 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Me: so much for being proactive!
Then there are those random thoughts!
Today's convo:
Me: Where is the Super Bowl this year?
Mark: i don't know. Probably Dallas. Why don't you just google it?
Me: No, I don't care enough.
Mark: I can name all of the winners of all the Super Bowls.
Me: (Oh please, no!))
Mark: Year 1: (blah, blah, blah)
Mark: Year 2: (blah, blah, blah)
Mark: Year 3: (blah, blah, blah)
Me: Are you going to name everyone of them?
Mark: No
Me: Oh thank the heavens!
I can't wait until Football season is over!
I'm not an early morning kind of girl! So any conversation is going to go towards the sarcastic side!
Here you go Teresa Coakley:
Mark: Did you know Jamie Foxx was a hero?
Me: (Trying to get ready for work) What?
Mark: You know the actor Jamie Foxx. He is a real life hero
Me: Why?
Mark: He saved people by pulling them from a burning car.
Me: Wow! I would say so then
Mark: Did you know he was a stud quarterback too?
Me: Yes, he is a stud in everything he does! *admiration eyes*
Mark: Yeah, he is Just like me!
Me: *eye rolls, heavy sighs* smh....(Just walk away, Joe!)
And then there is the times when Karma bits you in the ass!
That moment when your pet peeve bites you in the ass!😏
Mark: can you come here please?
Me: what do you want?
Mark: just come to the bathroom.
Me: *heavy sigh, stomp, stomp * what?
Mark: come in here
Me: *eye roll*. What?
Mark: *shuts door*. Now hang it!
Even the most important moments of our life are comical
Another daily convo in the life of Mark and Denise:
Mark: I think it's time to set a date.
Me: (Looking up from my Candy Crush game?) A date for what?
Mark: Ummm, to get married!??!?!
Me: Oh!
Mark: What are thinking?
Me: It really doesn't matter to me
Mark: Ok, how about 2025?
Me: no!
Mark: How about next fall?
Me: Do you mean 2016 or 2017
Mark: 2017.
Me: Okay (I get up and leave the room)
5 minutes later I come back with the computer...
Me: We are getting married Oct 21, 2017
Mark: Ohio State's bye week?
Me: Of course honey
Mark: That's my girl!
But every now and then, the fewest words have the most meaning.
Tonight's convo:
Silence! He's playing cards!
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
And the present conversation:
Mark: What are you doing?
Me: Blogging
Mark: What about?
Me: I thought I'd share with the blogging world some of our conversations
Mark: What? Are you going to make me look like an idiot?
Me: Who me?
Make Every Day Count..
Denise
