Sometimes we'll paint for three or four hours straight, or even more. GASP! Four hours of work, that's a crime! You can imagine our arms get pretty tired and our clothes get pretty plastered. When you're painting with one person for 4+ hours straight, you can run out of things to talk about. So we often sit in silence- a comfortable, married, I know you better than any person in the world silence. Every once in a while the quiet will be interrupted by a fleeting thought from one of us:
"What did you say was for dinner?"
"This apartment is seriously nasty."
"Oh, shoot, I never texted John back."
And this is how I discovered that Hubs secretly loves the Bachelorette. He doesn't watch the show, but I tell him all about it, just so he can be caught up on pop culture, we all know how important that is, right?!? I had told him the day before of my predictions, my picks, and all the ridiculous things that were said in this week's episode. Here we were, 24 hours later, and Hubs interrupted my silent, private thoughts with this:
"So you really think the guy from Utah goes far, huh?"
TRANSLATION: I AM THINKING ABOUT THE BACHELORETTE IN MY SPARE TIME AND WONDERING WHO THE FUTURE WINNER WILL BE.
TRANSLATION: EVEN THOUGH I ACT TOO COOL FOR BACHELORETTE, I SECRETLY LOVE IT AND FIND IT INCREDIBLY INTERESTING.
A-ha! We're onto you, Hubs! You can't pretend anymore- you've been caught!
Haha! That's so awesome!
ReplyDeleteI convinced my boyfriend to watch Gilmore Girls with me. He pretended to not get into it. But he's randomly talk about how he was dying to know what would happen next.
Ah, the little victories in life.
My husband loves it too. Almost more than me. He reads spoilers all the time. Plus, jef definitely went oh a mission, became inactive about 3 yrs ago, and he did drink alcohol on the show, as well as at a party last week. :)
ReplyDeleteI rejoiced in such a way when I discovered that The Prince secretly loves Drop Dead Diva.
ReplyDeleteHe was/is mortified.
Hahaha! That's awesome! I call Jef the 80's movie guy.
ReplyDeleteHAHA!!! So funny! Love the pictures too :)

ReplyDeletelove me some JEF! :) hilarious about the hubs, i'm pretty sure more husbands are really listening in the background than will ever admit it :)
ReplyDeleteMy husband loved to hate Courtney on the last Bachelor and was just as appalled when she won....he'll never, ever, ever admit it though.
ReplyDeleteI wish blogger had a "like" button. Because I don't really have anything to say, I simply "like" this post :)
ReplyDeletehahaha I love this! Your translation of the hubs is hilarious!! That is DEFINITELY what he was thinking! :) haha I hope you guys have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteHahaha hilarious!!!! My husband has done this with several shows. He always throws a fit about not wanting to watch a certain show, until several weeks later he'll start asking me to watch it. Happens every time!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! My husband makes fun of me when I watch "trashy TV" but then I find him suspiciously sneaking around the living room whenever I have it on! Also, thanks for the new follow over on my blog! I am excited to now be following yours and reading about your cute, little life! Have a happy day! :)
ReplyDeleteLast week, I woke my husband up while I was climbing into bed after watching the show and said, "Oh My Gahh, next week someone calls little Ricky baggage! Who do you think it is?" LOL He was not as excited as I was to discuss the matter.
ReplyDeleteLOL, that's rad! I just saw your comment on my blog today. Thanks for checking it out! I'm excited to have a new follower and reading your blog I'm excited to have a new friend! Your blog is seriously cracking me up and making my day. Can't wait to keep reading!
