Comments on: Guest Story: Husband Needed Help With…Hu?! http://www.husbandclothes.com/2008/05/17/reader-story-husband-needed-help-withhu/ Funny Marriage--Quotes, Photos, and Stories Thu, 17 Jun 2010 22:14:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: becauseIsaidso http://www.husbandclothes.com/2008/05/17/reader-story-husband-needed-help-withhu/comment-page-1/#comment-366 becauseIsaidso Tue, 20 May 2008 10:04:36 +0000 http://www.husbandclothes.com/uncategorized/reader-story-husband-needed-help-withhu/#comment-366 I had an elderly great uncle who, after 40 years with his wife, would sit at the dinner table when they visited and ask "Dorothy, do I like broccoli?" Or, even better, when asked if he wanted seconds, say "Dorothy, do I want more dessert?". Which was all very sweet and charming, but had us worried what would happen if she passed away before him. When this did happen, he amazed us all by going shopping for sushi makings, and ordering thai takeaway, something he had never eaten before in his life. So I guess what I'm trying to say is, it's not your fault for knowing these things, but his fault for not!

Yes, I try to be careful what I post. I think most of it would not get me (or a reader) killed. I love the photos! I clicked on the restaurant owner. Oh yeah, his eyes definitely reveal that whole "I'm trying to keep my expression normal, but you just totally freaked me out" look going on! OOPS. Yes, I try to be careful what I post.

Raphael - that's his name - is in the last pic. As for the traveling, we do it several times a year - as much as our work schedules and pockets allow. :) Oh, and my husband almost killed me when I told him I shared this little anecdote with you and your readers!!!

Noemi, that's too much. I wish I could have seen the German's face. Oh husbands...and the fun moments they create!!! BTW, your blog is really interesting! So, do you and your husband just kind of travel around and eat in really good restaurants all the time? (For readers who haven't visited Noemi's blog, you can click on her name in her post above, it links to her blog). Hm. If yes, how fun for you. And I'm not at all envious, no, I enjoy NOT traveling and NOT eating in restaurants due to my husband's work schedule. It may not sound fun, but it IS. Trust me. HA HA!!! Noemi, that’s too much.
