Sorry. Have no photos, people.
Mrs: If I die, you’ll marry someone nicer than me. But dumber.
Mr: This is true. I’ve had enough of smart wives.

Mr: (Caressing wife) Honey, can you…talk 20% less?
Mrs: ????!!

A Holistic Journey 
So, is Mr. Wayfarer still in the land of the living?? 😀 😀
Hey, I’ve missed reading your posts! Good to see you back. ❤
The Mr. is always in the Land of the Living, doing well. It is the Mrs. who is bedraggled and tired keeping all the balls up in the air. =)
I’ve missed everybody so much!!
What do you call a man that lost all of his intelligence?
A widow.
Why do men like smart women?
Opposites attract.

Love the first.
Pretty shmart of you…for a bachelor. 😉
LOL 🙂 So true.
Not very romantic but, Mrs and Mr agree….
Yep. As long as he sees it my way….
*grin*
I was referring to the bed conversation eh, eh
I know. =)
i dont know you so sorry.
Not sure why you’re sorry. This is how we get to know one another on WP. Thanks for dropping in. =)
lol
Bwahahaha! Awesome.
Laughing….ha ha ha glad to hear you liked it so much.
I was almost not smart enough to get that one 🙂
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Wise answer.
LOL.
well we are the embodimen of other’s fantasies…sometimes we get a grade 😀 remember it’s passing in a way always lol as in you’remarried and neither is leaving
to be with a dumb woman? no way! I’d rather be with a smart woman. they know how to save money, make more money, do things I can’t figure out, etc. dumb women are just plain high maintenance.
Ha ha ha. Smart answer. 😉
I’d want a smart woman who knows how to make a whole big pile of cash. I’ll stay home, cook, bake, clean, run errands and take care of her. Momma didn’t raise no fool.
😉
You keep bringing up the money. LOL.
I have expensive tastes 😉
Clearly. =)
LOL! 😉
lolz

Talk 20% less – that’s a good start. I asked what time it is, not how to make the watch!
Seriously, you sure do write about dying often…is something going on with you? I know I’ve been in and out of the blog world recently, so making sure I haven’t missed anything.
You solicit a mixed response from me, S. I’m sorta touched by your observation (that you care to notice) while I hold back this smile “I asked what time it is, not how to make the watch!” I’m all right (enough). Thanks for asking. (I do think about death a lot.) Now go on and make me that watch with four more hours in the day to blog, will ya?
Ok ok ok, finally was able to blog! Got it done!
I had a Spanish prof in college who constantly talked about death – made us go to grave yards and hang out for assignments, etc. It was sad when died right after the semester ended.
Of course I observe these things, D. And of course I’m almost always going to bring a little joke along the way. Glad you well (enough).
My…made you go to graveyards??! The PROF died when the semester ended??
Yes, we’d have to go on our own, lay down on a grave and then write about our thoughts/experiences (in Spanish). He spoke of it often – I remember chatting with him after class and he said he thought the cold weather of Ohio wasn’t good for his health and if he could go back south he might last a few more years. Well, when my report card came while I was on break, there was none for his class. Called the school and they said he had passed and they were working to get the grades added up. I think he knew all along the end was near.
Omg. Chills. Gosh! All of it…the laying down and everything. Sounds off.
Poor man.
You two have interesting conversations Mrs. D. 🙂 I’ve learned not to challenge your wit and intelligence. 🙂
It can be a challenge for him to know when to let me rip and when to (try and) put me in my place. LOL.
A razor’s edge. XD
Ha ha ha ha. You have this way of making me feel wicked.
TMI, save that for your husband. 🙂
Took me a moment to get the “joke”. (See how innocent HW is?) Tsk tsk.
Hahahahaha. 🙂
That question of his threw me in for a loop. Couldn’t believe…lol
I really don’t understand what’s happening in this post!
LOL. Too bad. *Tease*
LOL.
Cagey
LOL…How many can relate to these brief dialogues ?? It’s too easy, almost like eavesdropping ! ❤️
I can’t tbh. Though I like this blog generally.
I think the couples who survive do so with a sense of humor. It’s all good. ☺
Aaaaah it all becomes clear. Ty sensei.
My pleasure, Grasshopper. ☺
You have to.
So you don’t throw things at each other. =)
Ha ha ha. Eavesdropping. Oh, we’re not so special after all.
LOL.
(But I think we go ahead and say the stuff not all couples actually say.)
I used to ask my husband if he wouldn’t have been happier with a “less complicated” partner. He told me he likes the challenge. So..here we are, 45 years later. It’s no bed of roses,as they say, but it has never been boring !! ☺
Imagine two simple people. LOL.
As long as the rocks in his head fit the holes in your’s it’s a better marriage than most.
Mrs. Stubborn here, usually the one with the rocks I want to throw at what seem to echo back as gaping holes in his head, ha ha ha ha. “Are you listening, listening, listening?” Tomato, tomahdo. Gotta make it work. *Grin* But I like MG’s aphorism.
This is so funny haha 🙂
*Grin* Your evening entertainment. *Bow*
Only 20% ? He’s a keeper. 🙂
Ha ha ha. There you go. Look on the brighter side…
Too funny. Why am I happy that I can so relate?! Missing you, Diana!
Ha ha ha. Why am I seeing so many of you able to relate? I’ve missed HW, too!! LOL. Thx.
Xxx
Sounds familiar.
Sigh. Men.
And as prolific with your poems as you are, you must spout them nonstop – all hrs of the night. =)
Yes, often while my husband is sleeping. Then he goes on about the 50% cut back.
This tidbit was the most clever thing I’ve read in a long time. Wait…maybe EVER! You ROCK 20% more than the average blogger!
ROAR!! I’ll take the 20% surplus. LOL…thanks, sweetie.
A man should always choose a smart woman. When he does what he is told, he can have confidence that a series of unfortunate events won’t befall him. 😉
Sounds so very strangely like what I tell my boy (all the time): when you don’t obey Mommy, see? Bad things happen.
LOL
Smart boys figure this out quickly which in male-time can seem eternally long to a mother. 🙂
LOLoL. Male time. Truly you guys are your own species from your own world. I’m liking you better and better.
Hahaha. But…but…smart wives have the answers to everything. What will he do without you? 😉
“What will he do without you?”
Baffled as to how he can lounge around until I push (and PUUUSH) him to get things done and out the door, I’ve asked him that. He said yes, lie around and eat fried chkn all day. Lord…
Well, the men don’t get it. Fried chicken is tasty but there is only so much pleasure we can get out of it…
Oh. Now I’m thinking you cooked him the fried chicken :O
Ha ha ha. Ya think?? He gets ’em at the local supermarket. *Wrinkle NOSE!!*
Heheh. Not even KFC!
Ha ha ha, I know, right? (CAN’T believe they’re OUT THERE!!! America’s poisoning all of Asia.) There’s also a Filipino Mom/Pop shop that does killer fried whole chkn (according to him) near our gym.
Missed you.
Thanks, A!! So sweet. I missed my alter ego, too.
Haha–alter ego! My son read my blog and said I was being pretentious. I said no! I was being the real me.
He said it wasn’t the real me he knew. 🙂
LOL!!! How funny. I’d love to know how his perception changes (or struggles) with (more) time (on your blog).
T asked me yesterday what I’d wanted to be (as a girl) when I grew up. I thought that was pretty neat of him as a fresh eight-yr-old to be able to regard me as a person, someone who was once a child. Even adults sometimes have trouble seeing their parents as people apart from Mother/Father.
Very funny.
=)
Mrs: in quality or quantity ?
It’s all quality. So he meant quantity.
😛
Surely … But still a fine retort ! May you find your way through your current maze …
Yeah! You’re back! Missed your posts.
20% hmm?
=) Thanks. Sweet of you. I missed you guys! Gotta tell him I’d love 20% faster chore completion.
You will be able to use that 20% comment for laughing together for the rest of your lives. Funny!
But…it cost me…my dignity. *protest*
Ha ha ha ha.
Diana, Diana you are too cute here. Love it. And, I see how much everyone missed you. Plenty of witty comments and oh so, retorts.
You read with generous perceptions as always, Yvonne. Was just how our dialogue played out. =) My jaw dropped at the 20% less.
Xxx
D.
Nice to read your voice again. Thanks for the yuks!
LOL. You two obviously have got chemistry. Witty banter can be sexy in the bedroom or anywhere else.
“Witty banter can be sexy” Agree…but it doesn’t feel sexy with us. LOL. Old fogies.
Diana, You know, that “dry wit” can be inherited! When we get together with our sons and their (significant others) and talk around the dinner table, some people would think that we are being mean to each other. My husband has a dry wit and really that was part of his allure when we were dating. Over the years, it has aggravated me at times, but he keeps me laughing most of the time. And laughing is a good thing when we got to be “old fogies!”
Ha ha ha. “And laughing is a good thing when we got to be “old fogies!”
I’m a little surprised at the (amusing but fun) glimpse into your family dynamics, Deb. But I love the laughter. It’s healthful, as you know, of course.
When no talk, the wife is treated like a dumb and being taken advantage. So smarter or dumber is better?
Takes smarts to know how smart to appear… =)
How? 🙂
🙂 funny and”romantic” (only 20%).
🙂
Ha ha ha. We’re not very romantic…but sometimes we make up for it with the funny. 😛
So funny!
It was…bc I was insulted. LOL.
Your husband likes to live dangerously, doesn’t he?
Ha ha ha. He HAS said he is so trusting that the herb mixes I give him well could be arsenic one of these days and he’ll happily down them.
Ha Ha!
YAh!

Give us a picture. I can’t visualize that.
Naughty. Naughty.
And this man is still living? lol
LOL. HW is merciful and gracious. (Biding her time…He has said he doesn’t know WHAT in the world all the herbs I give him are. Might be arsenic, for all he knows.)
There are other choices. Depends on what you need, after all we men are slaves to our women. rotfl
You are well schooled.
Schooled just like a fish schools. 🙂
Oh Mister…he knows how lucky he is – don’t let him tell you differently 😉
LOL. He sure fools me (like aLL the time).
Thanks for stopping by and liking my post 🙂 Your jokes put a grin on my face. I’m following you now.
Ha ha ha. Thanks for the follow, Alicia. Visit was my pleasure and it would be so nice to get better acquainted. Welcome. =)
