I find it intensely interesting that human-kind insists on doing things that nature has clearly designed for us not to do.
Case in point: Jalapenos and Peppers
Met my ex-father in law last night for dinner. He was late, so I ordered (and consumed) a plate of fried jalapenos. When he got there, we ordered a sampler platter that included habanero hot wings.
Needless to say, an hour later, my stomach/intestines/et al were in subcutaneous flames.
If I was thinking it hurt yesterday – WOW – today has sucked.
Anyway.
I went and bought a wedding gift for my father’s girlfriends granddaughter’s wedding. Confusing?
Also needed to finally get a nice suit to appear fully respectable at the wedding. I walked into the suit place and told the guy, “Okay, this is my first suit, and I’m going to be going to a wedding. I want this suit to say, “I respect your union of holy matrimony while simultaneously saying that I want all the bridesmaids to want to have sex with me.” He was quickly stunned, looked away as though about to laugh, then said “Okay, gotta get it back together, time to be professional”. So we worked on it a bit, he went to help another customer, and Tam called. She wasn’t doing anything, so I asked her to come help me pick a suit. As I was wandering around, the salesman said, “Do you need some more help?”. I told him that my ex-wife was coming by to help me out – “but not with the sex part”. Again he was stunned and tried very hard not to laugh.
When she came in and I had some final questions, and he met her and shook her hand. He said, “I’ll pray for you” to her. LOL!
As we’re walking away to get the fittings etc, I asked her if she thought it was odd that he was going to pray for her. She said it was, but then I explained the situation and Tam thought it was hilarious.
The new Green Day CD is great! It’s a freaking great follow up to American Idiot.
*EDIT* Forgot – one of the accounts was distributed (the main one that I was worried about) so now I’ve got a lot….less…..to…..worry…..about.
