The Post That Will Get My Ass Kicked, or Served With Divorce Papers

Direct complaints to Mr Lady in regards to General madness

My husband has been reading my blog for damn close to a year now. In fact, he’s been reading many of YOUR blogs for several months as well. I am still trying to come to terms with this little arrangement.

The thing is, I used to be able to say Any. Damn. Thing. I wanted to about him, because I went to such great lengths to keep this blog, to keep our little thing, a secret.  Now that it’s out there, I kind of have to temper myself. Which means I omit a lot. But not today, dear readers, not today.

See, The Donor’s work week is Tuesday - Saturday, and since he’s been out of town for the past week, he’s the slightest bit backed up at work right now. I am hoping, nigh praying, that means it’ll be until this weekend before he pops in for a read. And though I am terribly witty and tragically hot, he kind of lives with me. He doesn’t exactly scroll back through the posts. (I think) (I hope) (We’ll see)

So, without further ado, here’s a few of the conversations we’ve had over the past week, that he will positively murder me for posting on a public forum.  Bring it:

Via text

Him: Fucking (insert friend in Portland’s name here) has a Porsche.

Me: You have a huge (censored). You win.

Him: No, YOU win.

Me: I’d much rather (bleep) you in the back of the station wagon than a Porsche anyday. More wiggle room.

Him: You so nasty.

Me: Bring your suburban sell-out ass over here; I’ll show you some nasty.

Him: ………

Me: Too far?

Him: ………

  • Valuable Lesson Aside: Do not point out to the approaching-mid-life-crisis-suburban-sell-out that he is a suburban-sell-out, no matter what degree of nasty you attach to it.

Via email:

Him: I love this blog thing. It’s like I don’t even have to talk to you anymore.

Me: ……….

  • Wow, He’s Flexible Aside: I didn’t realize he could actually get his foot all the way up to his mouth. He should do YOGA.

On the porch:

Him: (about yesterday’s post) The Mile High Club, huh? Are you a member? *glare*

Me: Nope. The only person I’ve ever flown with is my brother.

Him: *continued glare*

Me: SO NO.

Him: *giggle* Well, technically you are. Denver and all. *wink*

Me: I guess you’re right. You know, you’re the only person I’ve ever done it with at sea level.

Him: *shoots soda out nose* Not cool, Shan. NOT COOL.

  • Hello, My Name Is: Aside: Mary. My name is Mary. That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.

    So, do you think he’ll be able to text those divorce papers?
    Actually, you’ve now told the world about his huge (bleep). I think you can safely post whatever you damn well feel like for at least a month!

  2. Michaelon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Greetings Mr. Lady,

    A lot of us read blogs through feedreaders which only display the title of posts.
    If you were hoping your husband wasn’t going to scroll back, having a nice boring title like “Eco-tourism opportunities in the Northwest Territories.” would be a little safer than “The Post That Will Get My Ass Kicked, or Served With Divorce Papers”.

    If you REALLY wanted to keep things safe, go with “Feelings - part 3/23″ or “If the tampon fits”. These would keep any self respecting owner of Y-chromosones FAR away.

    With your title, you’ve all but ensured that your husband will click through. So you better hope he doesn’t use a feedreader like me. If he’s reading multiple sites, though…

    Oh, and I agree with DisgruntledMom. He may be pissed about your post, but if you don’t watch out, he’s going to be famous - think of the crowds he’d pull at BlogHer! After all, they’re a community that wants to “… create opportunities for women who blog to pursue exposure…” (from their website).

    MPS has just started reading my blog. Well he has just started ADMITTING that he does. And he gets rather questioning about the men that read.

    Not that any men read this blog and ogle her or anything Mr Mr Lady…

    Do you think I fooled him?

    If you and your husband are still sending each other sexy texts, I wouldn’t worry about divorce.

    I actually wish my husband read my blog more. His attitude is, “I already know everything that happened.”

    First, I love the questions in this form. “Pink, no blue, ahhhhhhhhh” Second, what the heck is to get all bent out of shape about in this post? You told the world he has a big (censored) and you’d do nasty wiggly things with him in the back of a station wagon. Not only is that true love, that’s pretty hot!

  12. Angie @ KEEP BELIEVINGon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Since I mostly post about my husband and his illness, I always watch what I say about him anyway. His family reads my blog. My family reads my blog. I’m thinking I am of the age where any degree of nastiness between us is just not a pretty picture to anyone but us anymore.

    I keep telling you, between the cleaning and the huge…I want your hubby for a day-suburban sell-out or not. And yeah, you are SO right about the station wagon thing-better than a porsche any day for that. Not that I would know. In fact, I don’t even know what you are talking about, you nasty woman you! :)

    I just have nothing witty to say that can even come close to this post. I am out of the funny. Though I suppose the whole foot in mouth penchant was nullified by him not saying that you have a huge (censored). God, that would be some sucky words to hear.

    Suburban sell-outs are the nastiest, hiding behind all that Tupperware and Avon, short lawns and golf buddies. I once was almost defeated by a Sara Lee junky. She threatened me with berry pie and a warm house. Surely there was poison in the pie and bear traps in the bed… ninja vanish ***

    So does a airplane hand job count for the Mile High Club? Just wondering.

  28. NukeDadon 06 Aug 2008 at

    The “huge” comment alone gives you your get out of jail free card. Until he starts smoking a pipe and wearing bermuda shorts with black socks, sandals and sock garters, he’s not a sell out. There, I just wrote his Christmas list for him.

  30. Dianeon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Freaking hysterical. I find it ironic and funny that you used to be so secretive about your blog with nearly everyone that personally knew you and now your hubby is reading.

    In the future, you should name these posts something like “a Shopping Guide” - then he’d be less tempted to read them!

  32. Hilarious!

    I try to keep hubs off the blog now, since he’s started reading. Bummer. He’s good fodder. Not to mention the sex stories I can’t post. But to him - not so funny.

  35. Megryansmomon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Note to myself Whynot will never read my blog. Maybe your husband will take you up on your offer to BLEEP in the back of the station wagon and it will distract him from your post.

  36. MammaDawgon 06 Aug 2008 at

    His, “I don’t even have to talk to you anymore.” reminds me of my own hubby. LOL - you guys crack me up.

    Email was a novelty when I first met my husband. We flirted heavily via email while getting to know each other. Even found out that it had been 2 1/2 years since he had *ahem* been with anyone.

    We’re just starting to play around with texting…

    OK, since men can’t see beyond the penis, saying that his is HUGE on this post should buy you an i-will-not-threaten-divorce card. Just sayin’.

    Having sex in Denver does NOT qualify you for the mile-hi club. Sorry.

  43. krissyon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Yep, needed this dose of laughter today. Thank you very much.

    My husband reads my blog too and that’s when I chew his ass. That way he can call himself a idiot and save me the time and save my valuable breath.

    Just don’t do the same mistake I did on texting. Sent a very personal picture that involved a very large boob (mine) and sent it to the wrong number. Never got a response, so I figure I probably killed the poor sap that looked at the huge nipple or they don’t get pix messages. Either way I don’t care because when I’m drunk I show my boobs all the time anyway. Just another boob day.

    Thanks for the chuckle. And I’m happy that you didn’t join the mile high club with your brother, because I would have to never come back. To crack for me!

    krissys last blog post..Just Saying…

  44. Marieon 06 Aug 2008 at

    Hehehe. The texting thing reminded me that my DH and I have a whole backlog of chat conversations from when we were dating long distance that will never see the light of day–or shouldn’t!

  45. Matton 06 Aug 2008 at

    *low whistle* Suburban sell-out? That almost made ME feel bad.

    Everyone else is right though. He won’t remember any of that stuff and will zero in on the part about his, uh…you know. He may even print it out.

    What you should have said, in reference to the Porsche/station wagon debate, is “Size doesn’t matter.” Then you should have offered to give him something more befitting his size, e.g. a Hummer. Guys who get Hummers can forgive anything.

    The Husband does not read my blog - apparently it’s boring. However, the entire rest of my family has been known to check in with alarming regularity, including my aging grandparents and my MOTHER-IN-LAW. No freedom whatsoever. Also, it’s in the rules: he has to forgive you if you announce publicly that he has a huge (censored). Or if you say he can (bleep) like a god.

    Oh, please. He’ll be thrilled you mentioned the part about his big (censored). He’s been trying to figure out a way to work that into conversations for years, and now hundreds of people are aware of his “attributes”. If he gets mad, just send him over to my blog, where I just told hundreds of people that my husband doesn’t wash his hands after he pees.

    I’ll totally defend you in court, k? Just give me a holler once he serves you with those papers.

    You have a good point though–something I’ve been worried about (and thinking about) ever since I started blogging…how much should we censor ourselves? I don’t want to get dooce’d from my own family. It’s a tough spot to be in.

    Some of my family and friends have started reading my blog, and while I sort of like it, I sort of don’t. I feel like I’m totally open and honest (to a point) on the internetz, and in real life, I obviously hold back more. I dunno.

    It’s a big topic to tackle.

    Anyways. I digress.

    I could have just written: You rock. That is all.
