What Would You Do?

LOL, that's something Mrs. Conductor would do. 

 

True story:

 

Mrs. Conductor was shopping one day back when we first got married. It's a beautiful early September day. Clear skies, fairly sunny, 65ish degrees. I'm at work sitting on the back of a caboose in a t-shirt when my phone rings...

 

Mrs. Conductor: Hey, how's work going

Me: Pretty good trip lined up. Should be back in town by midnight or so. What are you doing?

 Mrs. Conductor: On my way home from Wal-Mart.

Me: What all did you ( Mrs. Conductor interrupts)

Mrs. Conductor: You aren't going to believe this!

Me: What happened???

Mrs. Conductor: It's snowing in Nitro! 

Me: You're out of your damn mind!

Mrs. Conductor: So help me God! I'm getting off the Nitro exit and it's snowing!

Me: It's 65 degrees Einstein, it's not snowing! 

Mrs. Conductor: Ohh....I guess you're right, it's some kind of........oh, now I feel stupid.

Me: What is it?

Mrs. Conductor: .......I'm following a chicken truck

Since then, any time she says something stupid, all I have to say is chicken truck and she shuts up ?

That wasn't an isolated incident either. She accompanied me to Memphis a few years ago. We spent at least 2 weeks before the trip researching the area, seeing what there was to do, looking at different routes, etc, etc. 

 

We're a good way there, just north of Nashville and I said "We can take a few minutes on afternoon and drive over into Arkansas. We've never been there and probably won't ever have a reason to"

She says "Can we take an afternoon and drive over to Tennessee? I've always wanted to go to Tennessee"

 

I looked at her like she was stupid for 3 reasons. A: We were in the middle of Tennessee, B: We were spending 5 days in Memphis, and C: She'd been to Tennessee before. 

 

After a a moment of confusion at my reaction she says "Oh...........Memphis is in Tennessee isn't it?"

 

Thats my wife. Heart of gold, couldn't ask for a better wife and mother, but it's a good thing I didn't marry her for her brains

Besides the obvious aesthetic reasons, this is my favorite thing about women. They make me laugh because they're soo goofy and/or awkward. I think it's hilarious when they say something then drop their head and laugh at themselves when they figure out what they said.

If I cleaned the wrong car I wouldn't care. Helping others is in my blood. 

Except now your hands are freezing, your nose is running, you're late for your first day at a big new job, you scratched up a nice briefcase getting the ice off, snow fell in your shoes and melted to soak your feet, .... Etc, time to move to Florida lol
