Intellect and Strength

No photos today, it's been TOO COLD to get outside if I don't have to. And the inside is dirty. So I'll tell a story (without illustrations).

My husband and I linger after the alarm goes off. We start our day slowly. This morning we had a conversation.

Him: Mwah mwah mmm wah wah (a la Charlie Brown adults)
Me: (something sensible)
Him: nannie nannie BOOOO booo moo moo (yes, he really said that)
Me: Now there's a comeback that really shows off your superior intellect.

-- time passes --

Me: Well, we can't put it off any longer. We MUST get up.
Him: I can resist the urge to crawl out of bed. I'm strong.
Me: Oooh, superior intellect AND strength.


I'm so mean to that poor boy.

Woody, glad you got a grin out of it.
Molly, nice to see you here. I look forward to perusing your blog. I have a friend in Australia who gardens. We live vicariously through one another during our winters.

Hello! With today being Superbowl and all, I had the day to myself! :) I read through your blog, and have laughed, felt bad (and sympathetic!) and now have to send you Christmas cards or something. Thank you for your insight, your humor, and the little lessons here and there (with the spectacular photography!) (and very sorry for all the grammatical errors herein (and any atrocious spelling :)) Looking forward to reading more!!!
