They were getting ready for church. She said, “Do you have an ironed shirt?”
He said, “Why no, dear. I believe they are all cotton.”
She said, “I suppose it is better that way. Do you have any without wrinkles?”
He said, “Yes, dear. Several.”
She wants you to know it is not easy to have a conversation in this house.

.-= Jientje´s last blog ..Weekly Winners, Antwerp Harbor =-.
Yeah — just wait until you’re here and he does it to you!
It sounds like a Marvelous Place to visit.
.-= Bill´s last blog ..An Update =-.
Bill — so’s the zoo.
It may be hard but I see you keep trying.
.-= Dr John´s last blog ..Twelfth Sunday After =-.
Dr. John — I didn’t say it wasn’t fun!
I understand her perfectly, and she has my sympathy.
Except I know she would miss it if it weren’t there. ;0)
.-= Thumbelina´s last blog ..The End. =-.
Thumbelina — very much so!
Well, at least it makes life interesting! Unless the same response is repeated over and over! Every time we drive past a graveyard Malcolm says ‘This is the dead centre’ and roars with laughter. How would you deal with THAT?
Brenda — Amoeba has a few of those, too. Only thin is, about the time I get the script down he gets tired of it and changes it, and once again I can’t keep up! Mined Conversation
I think we live in parallel universes.
*sigh*
.-= Susan at Stony River´s last blog ..Friday Flash 55, in which "B" is for "Bottle" =-.
Susan — I have been noticing that. I wonder if Himself and Amoeba are related. You know Amoeba’s family are of Gaelic decent. (Hence O’Ceallaigh — which is the original spelling of Amoeba’s real sir name).
Yes… I’m believing that! I can keep up cuz I’m reading! I’m not sure I’d do as well “in the house”!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Port Discovery =-.
Melli — like me, you’d probably do better on some days than others.
If the creators of Gilmore Girls lived near you-the show would probably still be on, they’d use you guys as inspiration.
.-= silverneurotic´s last blog ..The Cat’s Got Issues =-.
SN — I never watched the show, but now you’ve made me think I should have at least taken a peek.
I usually pick out a shirt for my husband to wear to church and it must be complimentary to my outfit, so that we match. Hee hee just kidding.
.-= Church Lady´s last blog ..That’s Corny =-.
Chuch Lady — oh, we have lots of those couples in our church. Amoeba would so not go for that! He prefers we each remain our own individual and a couple as well. I wholly concur.
That is wonderful. I’m pretty sure that no one knows what an iron is in my house! ;D
Here via Melli, although I have seen you over at Dr. John’s place. And I see that Jientje commented — I met Jientje last month! Small world…
KC — welcome! Please come back again. Friends of Melli’s, Jientje’s and Dr. John’s are definitely friends of mine!
Especially with a knight in armour
.-= Anthony North´s last blog ..THE FUTURE =-.
Tony — LOL! You’ve just offered my favorite comment on this post — and maybe even for this week!
I loved this one!!
I am forever grateful for all the botanic information. I would have thankful ironed his shirt!!
