It’s Nice to Have a Husband Who Listens

I’ve been telling Husband for several YEARS that I would like to upgrade my wedding ring. To be fair, since we were first married, we agreed that at our 5 year anniversary I would get a ring upgrade. Well, fast forward 8 years and I have brought up “the deal” on more than one occasion. The week of Valentine’s Day, I thought was the day our deal would come to fruition. For several days leading up to Valentine’s Day, Husband had mentioned that “one of” my gifts had been something I had been requesting for quite some time. His exact words were, “you have asked me for this so many times”.
On Valentine’s Day, I got one package. It was a gift package of Euphoria perfume, which smells amazing. Husband told me that the gift I was waiting for was yet to come. The next day a package arrived. When I opened the package, I was so excited when the packing peanuts revealed a small velvet box. I just KNEW it was the new wedding band I had been requesting for the last couple of years.
*DRUMROLL, PLEASE*
There it is, folks. He was so proud of the new “dime and ring” he bought me.
I’m going to get him a rubber vagina. When I get the real thing, he can have the real thing.

I have NO idea how it is humanly possible for ANYONE to be this funny. Well, ok, maybe Katt Williams… but girl? Seriously, after raising 5 kids as a single mom (all from the same dad) for the last 8 years, I just sit here and nod my head.. yup… yup… ooooh, she hit the nail on the head there… OMG, you’re amazingly hilarious and should have your own special on the comedy channel. But I won’t let my younger children watch it, because I’ll be busy being a parent and monitoring such things as programs with profanity and the likes.
Keep it going, you make us laugh!

Pretty clever way to spin the ring thing.

That’s hysterical! Now I have to hide this post from my SO. I don’t want him getting any ideas.
Feb 27, 2012 @ 16:28:00
As a die-hard feminist i never thought i’d say this phrase but, you asked for it. Don’t start getting mad at him afterwards because you regret it.
Feb 27, 2012 @ 16:53:44
He did get me! I have to give credit where credit is due. I wear my dime and ring all the time. LOL

This is my kind of guy. This is the exact kind I would do with my wife! And my wife would have the same reaction! Just started my own blog with my adventures into fatherhood, and I will be linking your blog in mine!

LMFAO that is great! He needs punishment but at least he put some thought into it (even if that thought was spawned over an open beer can or two)

ROFL oooh there’d be a dead man in my house if it was me… I vote hims gonna be king of the couch for a while b/c thats where he’d be SLEEPING.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 17:44:10
LOL! Can I just say I love your blog?
Always funny!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 16:23:49
My husband looks over my shoulder at this blog:
Him: Well, he fucked up.
Me: I think it’s hilarious.
Him: if he knows what’s good for him, he’ll produce a damned ring before bed time.
LOL! So, yeah, total conversation about you in some random fucking house.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 16:38:41
LMAO! I like the way your husband thinks!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 15:02:09
LMBO – well, at least he has a sense of humor which matches your own.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 15:00:05
Perfect solution, lol!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 13:18:23
You a dime piece baby! This means you are a 10. I think that’s what he meant. Hell. Idk. Lol
Feb 22, 2012 @ 13:02:58
Oops I meant out not our.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 13:02:29
I would’ve busted out laughing! Did you make him a fancy dinner our of play food to go with that rubber vagina? That would’ve made the day complete!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 12:35:57
holy shit – your husband is hilarious. dead, sure, but hilarious.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 11:57:48
Is he still alive?
Feb 22, 2012 @ 12:04:17
Mostly.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 10:32:11
I would totally wear that thing. Under one condition. He wears one, too.
What a brilliant idea!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 10:25:50
The rubber vagina is a great idea, although I would have opted to ‘w’ring his neck instead…..
Feb 22, 2012 @ 10:24:18
This is so funny! My husband would totally do something like this…Love it!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 10:20:18
he’s a funny guy, well played
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:22:08
That was really funny and something my Hubster would have done too! I almost snorted my coffee!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:21:53
Man, I wish I’d thought of that! That’s hilarious.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:15:45
LMAO! Too funny………..thanks
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:10:20
Is that man still standing after that?
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:03:10
I seriously believe that we live parallel lives. Except that you r husband actually thought ahead on this one!!!!!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:50:12
Wow…. Maybe you need to give him a “dime in forehead” when you punch him with the ring!!! The only way this will be truly hilarious is if he shows up with a real diamond ring in the next few days…. If not, I think the comedic value is going to depreciate quickly!!!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:57:31
LMAO!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:26:32
I can’t believe he still has balls after that..
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:25:29
Lol. I sure hope he was joking….
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:27:58
He considers himself a comic genius. LOL
Feb 22, 2012 @ 08:24:52
you should get him a bottle of “Head & Shoulders” for Father’s Day!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 11:26:06
That would be a good one. Or get him a gold-plated medallion. Take it up a notch. You know what I mean?
