Why I love Martha

So since becoming a “househusband” I have taken on a fond affection for the “Martha Stewart Show“.  I know, I know…. how gay can you be.  Ok, so true.  I do enjoy learning her cooking tips, crafting, and pointers for the garden.  

But what I really enjoy about Martha….. her snarky comments.  She has such as tactful way of putting someone down and making them seem inferior to her.  I love it.

She won my heart over yesterday when she brought out a fifteen foot hot dog and made the remark, “For those of you who don’t think length matters, I disagree — especially when it comes to weiners.”  The comment was followed by her laughing hysterically at the funny she just made.  

I love you Martha.

I can smell it today

Today while walking to the grocery store, I got my first whiff of fall this year.  Um…. I LOVE IT!  

The smell of leaves that have fallen off the trees signals that my favorite time of the year is here.  What a great time to be outside exploring nature.   

Soon the smells of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, pumpkin pie, and apple pie will start filling the air, letting me know that Kitty and Zilla will be here soon for Turkey day! YAY!!

And we didn’t land in the water

 So this weekend while heading off to slumber, I rolled over and asked Tea, “What do you want to do tomorrow?”  He replied with, “whatever you want to do.”

“Great” I replied.

Tea: “Uh oh.  What do you have planned?”

Me: “Oh just something that involves bikes and boats.”

Tea sighs.  

So the next morning we wake up and Tea plays as if he has not heard the conversation from the previous evening.  Perhaps he doesn’t, as it was late and we were well on our way to dreamland, but he will soon find out.  After a delicious breakfast at a quaint old firehouse, we hop on our bikes and head to the lakes.  I have always wanted to go kayaking but never really had the opportunity.  Of course, I have done canoeing, rafting, and the sort, but never kayaking.  We spent the afternoon tooling from lake to lake, along tree lined shores, admiring the enormous houses that line the water that we could never afford.  

Tea found himself enjoying the experience, although it is something he would have never suggested himself.  It was so cute to hear him from the back of the kayak saying, “lets see how fast we can go again.”  This is something we will definitely do again.  I wish the lakes wouldn’t be frozen over when Kitty and Zilla come for Thanksgiving so we could go kayaking with them instead of ice fishing.

Sarah McLachlan’s back in the news…

So I ALMOST hate to hear that Sarah McLachlan and her husband of 11 years are splitting up.  It’s sad for the kids, and perhaps sad for Sarah and Ashwin as well.  

However, one must always look for the good in any situation…. and I am seeing it clear as day.  Sarah is gonna go all batshit crazy and write some amazing lyrics.  Yes, yes, depressed, pissed, 10 kinds of crazy Sarah McLachlan just might return, reinventing the whole reason I fell in love with her in the first place, well that and her amazing voice.

So although I hate to find happiness in anyone’s sorrow, I am kinda excited about this one!!!

HOT!

 So it was time for Tea to get a new car, and after much research and driving to lots, he had decided on what he wanted. 

Browsing along the lot, we were greeted by “hot car salesman”…. and I am talking HOT!!  We have all seen the type; middle aged, great build (not too buff and not too skinny), smiles from ear to ear and just as precious as can be. He had that look about him, at any minute I was waiting for him to run off to a phone booth only to come back wearing tights and a superman cape with a lock of hair in a perfect little curl across his forehead. 

After signing the papers and making it all official, he spent two hours walking us through all the features of the car and how to use them.  That dirty straight married man turned it on to the little gay couple.  Laughing, making dirty penis jokes, and looking your right in the eye for perhaps just a moment too long.  Good thing I went along, Tea might have driven locked the doors to the car and driven off with “hot car salesman” and done unspeakable things with him, and I would have missed some prime eye candy.

BTW:  Tea’s new car is HOT too!!

Enough said
