Water To Wine

Him (staring at the water cooler in the kitchen) "We are out of water. I need to go get more"

Me: "Nah. I can just use the tea kettle tomorrow, no biggie. No need to go out to get water"

Him: " But I can also get wine"

Me:" Don't particularly care for wine,really, you can just stay home if you want"

Him: "But wine is a nice benefit of water trip to store"

Me : " Meh. Really no need"

Him :"I will go get water"

Me : " And turn it into wine?"

Him :" Don't think I am THAT good"

Me: " Thank God."

Zen

The Scene: I have moved the furniture once again. If you are my friend, you will need no further explanation.

Him: " Looks good. It is amazing how flexible this living room is"

Me:" How flexible the room is?? The room is a testament to how flexible my MIND is!"

Him: " I guess. The room is a very Zen room"

Me:" The room is just ....there. Kindof like you;) Any excitement is generated by me."

Him~Hysterical laughter
Me~ Even more hysterical laughter

Fade to black.

Ash Wednesday

~A Day In The Life Of The Suddenly Unequally Yoked ~Ash Wednesday

Him, JUST back from Mass (wiping his finger across my mouth) "You have something on your face"

Me: (staring at his forehead in moderate disbelief) "Uh huh. You have something on your forehead. Want me to take care of that for you with a wet wipe?"

Totally true story. Just. happened.

Hallelujah Girl

A Day In The Life Of The Suddenly Unequally Yoked....where religious tolerance is practiced daily and imperfectly;)

Him:

Hooked up with the Hallelujah Girl on the Ipad. Relax. Really. It is just the Liturgy of the hours, being sung to him by a very ambitious Catholic lady. I just named her because she is basically singing between his ears right now and does this daily. Twice daily. So she might as well have a name. It is all about respect. She's family now.

Me:

Trying to decide between burgundy and sangria. Wondering which one of the little monsters broke the hand off the tiny Buddha that sits on a decorative rock. The Russian Orthodox Mary picture above the piano is giving the newbie Ganesh statue on the coffee table a dirty look. Wikipedia tells me he is all about removing of obstacles. I hope she doesn't piss him off too much. I am not planning another trip to Ukraine to replace her....
