Overheard in the J and L House: A Bunny Edition

Overheard in the J and L House

The radiators make loud and creeeeeepy noises. Grumbling, bubbling, hissing, wheezing, whistling, gurgling. This house is scary! And it might be a very old, dying man.

Birthday Party Leeway

I'm trying to be a good wifey and give my sweet husby lots of leeway to fuss just as he did for me a couple of weeks ago for my birthday party. I did try the following, though:

Lisa to Jesse: It's okay if you want to be a little less snappy with me.

It seemed to work! He laughed at my nice presentation of a perfectly reasonable request and we kept plugging along with our preparation.

We should have a nice day and a nice celebration.

Overheard in the Produce Department

scene: Wegmans produce department. Lisa bumps into a funeral director colleague (Steve).

Steve to Lisa: Hey! Are you ready to get back into the business?

Lisa, with no hesitation: pssht. NO!




So, is that my answer? Am I done with funeral directing? I've been trying to answer this question since April 2008 (before, even). J thinks I'm stuck in the past, that I shouldn't sacrifice my future to live in the past. He's right, right? Why can't I let it go?

"Overheard" in My Dream

Michael, my brother-in-law to Lisa: No bitch is truly alone until she's hunting squirrels.



In my dream, he then proceeded to tell me about a male scientist who was tracking and researching rabbits with exceedingly long stomachs. If I told you the details of this research, you'd know that my brain science is not sensible or accurate; therefore, it's much too difficult to try to explain further details.

This is my brain at work, folks.
