This conversation is for all you readers out there who thought I was the crazy one in this relationship… HA!
Hubby: I think we should get healthy.
Me: Love this idea! I really need to lose some inches, I’m on the low zipper.
Hubby: .. the what?
Me: You know, when your pants are so tight that you can’t button the top button? Well I’m at the point where my pants are so tight, I can’t even zip em up.
Hubby: Okay, this explains all the long shirts you’ve been wearing.
Me: Word.
Hubby: Why don’t you just buy bigger pants?
Me: That’s quitter talk!! Besides, you just said we’re getting healthy, so I don’t need to buy new pants, as I’ll be all thin and fit soon. So what’s our game plan? Jogging, lifting weights, eating healthy?
Hubby: All of that… and smoothies.
Me: mmmmmm smoothies, time to break out the old Magic Bullet from storage.
Hubby: I kinda thought we would need something more… powerful.
Me: But babe, the Magic Bullet is a bullet… that’s magical… ya can’t get more powerful than that!
Hubby: I was thinking we could get the Blendtec Blender.
Me: Never heard of it.
Hubby: It’s the same blender they use at Jamba Juice!
Me:…
Hubby: Babe it’s amazing! Its got a 4 inch blade, 13 amps, 1560 watts, direct drive motor, and solid state electronics.
Me: I think you just described a car.
Hubby: … and it’s only $600.
Me: WHAT!?!? You ARE talking about a car!!
Hubby: Oh be serious! You can’t get a car for $600.
Me: OLIVER!!! My first car, olive green Subaru sedan, $500!!
Hubby: And it’s engine blew up!
Me: Not his fault! I forgot to give him oil… for like 2 years. AND I was able to find a used engine for under a $100 so even then, he’s still cheaper than your blender! And he was a CAR! A drive down the road, carry passengers, CAR!! Can your blender do that!?! Can it take us around town, while blending a delicious strawberry banana smoothie at the same time!?!?!
Hubby: Okay, you’re just being crazy now.
Me: … I’m being crazy!?!?!
So with you on this one. However, this conversation sounds suspiciously like the one my hubby and I had with regard to a computer we recently purchased. Had to marry a gamer….
Hilarious!
I just found out how fancy blenders are because my brother in law wanted one…. and now I keep hearing about them!
I never thought blenders would be the next big thing!!!
At least he did his homework on the blender’s specs. You have to appreciate a man with support for his argument.
