Squee!
Today is HUBS' birthday (he's 38), and to celebrate this occasion on my blog I decided to relay some stories as written by HUBS in an email he sent yesterday (he's 38). So, here goes...
Hi, folks.
As a school computer technician, I get to overhear some pretty hilarious stuff while working. Such as (quoted from memory) the following.
Years ago, at a Jefferson City elementary school...
Third-grader: "Ms. Gutierrez?"
Ms. Gutierrez, warily: "Yes, Billy?"
Third-grader: "You know why Santa's nose is red?"
Ms. Gutierrez, still wary: "Why, Billy?"
Third-grader, matter-of-factly: "Capillaries."
......................................................
Today, at a St. Louis County high school...
White student: "I want to understand this whole 'rap' thing."
Black student: "That would take weeks."
......................................................
Later today, at the same school, with the same students...
White student: "Rap doesn't seem to have much of a message."
Black student: "[Something about Grandmaster Flash, and then...] The old-school rappers had messages."
White student: "Yeah, but now, it's just about their own lives. 'My girl cheated on me,' 'my life is tough,' stuff like that."
[Pause]
White student: "So it's sorta like country now, really."
[Longer pause]
Black student: "Don't you ever say that again."

Recently, at the same St. Louis County high school...
Student 1: "Hey, do you guys remember that boy that swam in the football field when it flooded last year?"
Student 2: "Yeah, I bet he got salmonella."
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUBS (he's 38)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HILARIOUS. I loved the rap as country conversation the most I think.
Thanks, kim. I think the rap convo is probably the best, too.
LOVE IT!! Those are so funny. I think your Hubs always sounds like the sweetest guy -- one LUCKY guy obviously, you two make the sweetest couple!! Happy Birthday to him, yay!!
Thanks for your notes too my dear. (Oh, in answer to your question, yeah I just can't run for a month so as not to cause any trauma to the healing-process, I guess. All I know is I will do whatever they say, man, that is for sure.)
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY oxoxoxox :)
Sugar: HUBS is sweet.
Happy Valentine's Day!!!!
Happy B-day HUBS! You're 38!
I love those stories. Especially the rap / country one. Save that, and steal it for one of your screenplays!
