have you ever...

Chardonnay (you will find that real names have been removed from my posts so everyone is nicknamed) is my best friend in Las Vegas and we email during the day. One funny thing she has showed me is this tradition she started with her mom, that we do as well now. We will write in the title of the email... "have you ever" which will be followed by a funny and/or embarrassing or ridiculous story in which we reveal something that we usually wouldn't tell... and then end it by saying... "neither have I" as if we would NEVER do that, or have ANYTHING remotely like that happen to us. We always share funny stories this way.

The one I sent to her yesterday was:

have you ever...


Gotten a flat tire a few days earlier, and then had your husband put said tire on top of the recycling bin and then when he is out of town, and it is the day for recycling, you have to take the very heavy tire off of the bin and then use all of your strength to hoist it back up inside the bin (getting your hands all black), then fight the snowy, windy, icy driveway in 4 inch heels to haul the heavy bin to the curb and drive off to work, already a bit late.... And so you call your husband to tell him how hard it was and how proud he should be of you ...only to find out that the RIM WAS STILL ON THE TIRE, but since it was so heavy, and you couldn't flip it over- you couldn't SEE the other side where it would have been obvious, and now you have to go back and take it out of the recycling bin- SOOO HEAVY and dirty- and by the way he is LAUGHING at you for not realizing the rim was on the tire...

Neither have I.

Today my have you ever is:

Have you ever had your husband get on your laptop and "ghostwrite" a post???

In his defence- everything he said was true :)
