Like inserting a phallic bone, so wait time is decreased? Or like requiring counselling and your wife's expressed written consent to get a vasectomy? Or like a chastity plug? Or an alphabetical grading system for undergarments?
 
I'm listening to a podcast, and the guest, who had a distinct accent, said, "Nancy Drew."

I misheard and thought she said, "Nazi Drew."

Hoo boy, that conjured up some inappropriate images.
 
When entering a refund request form for a customer, I almost accidentally copy/pasted their account number as the dollar amount. Our account numbers are 16 digits long.

So they almost got a refund of over 81 quadrillion dollars.

I...don't think my company could cover that.
 
It was my wife and I's 11th anniversary last Friday, so naturally I decided to be romantic and say something along the lines of, "Darling, you're the most beautiful woman in the world."

This sparked a discussion about how, if she's the most beautiful woman in the world, why aren't talent agents stopping her in the street to ask her to star in movies or work as a model, and maybe random men should be propositioning her, but hey some of those men might be married, so she'd end up as a mistress to a married man, and if she's gonna be a mistress I think she should pick a really rich guy, because she's the most beautiful woman in the world so she should be able to snag a rich married dude, don't make the mistake of being a mistress for a broke guy, there's no future in that, plus the guy might get divorced if his wife finds out about the affair, so she'd want a man who's rich enough to pay alimony PLUS give my wife the kind of quality of life she's come to expect as a mistress.

Fellas, my recommendation would be to marry a girl who can conduct in-depth discussions with you about her prospects as a homewrecker.
 
"Well, you're the most beautiful woman in the world to me.
But I think after 11+ years with me, including shopping for clothes and choosing movies, I think you've realized I don't exactly have good taste"
Proceed to sleep on the couch for the next 11 years.
 
I often tell her that she has horrible taste, and that every other woman in the world would never want to be with me, she's the only one who would ever deign to be with me much less marry me.

Strangely enough this also often results in me in the doghouse.

You get extra points for using the word "deign."

I blame this on watching too much Xite, but doesn't this sound like it should have been an anime theme song from the 80's/90's?


Yes, I am somewhat familiar with Spandau Ballet (thanks, John Hughes!), but I looked up as this song was playing and expected very different visuals.
 
So, you know how I had the insane idea to bike to Lunenburg a few years ago? And did it?

I didn't book my vacation days, so work booked them for me. But they gave me June 6 to 16 off. Ten days off. And I'm thinking of doing another crazy biking trip: Prince Edward Island. I've always wanted to start from one end of the island all the way to the other side. According to some bike tour guides, it takes about 5 days to bike across the island.

There's a Maritime Bus terminal just down the street from me. I could bus to PEI and go from there. Although it doesn't get me to my ideal starting point (one tip of the island or the other). So I'm not sure how the logistics would work. I'd take my time exploring, seeing the sights, camping along the way. And then bus home from Summerside or Charlottetown.

Right now, it's just a crazy idea in my head without any specific plans. It's probably "too big" to do with only a month to plan.

That sounds like it would be a great challenge!
 
So today we're staying at my parents-in-law's place, this evening we have a eurosong party with friends.
Which means this afternoon I was chopping wood, and now I'm dressed as Conchita Wurst - in a long gala dress, with long eye lashes, makeup, the whole deal.
I've never felt more like a Canadian lumberjack in my life.
