On Friday evening I was out to dinner with my grandparents, who were in town for a short visit. We were having a lovely discussion about the arts or our family or the memorial service at which my grandfather was to eulogize the next day, when, out of the blue, I received a text message from my friend Ashley. Ash's husband Jason is....well, I don't think it's a stretch to say that he's a fan of me. As evidenced by this:
So Jason and I were just discussing the new show on TLC, "Sister Wives,"** and he says to me 'I wish Hannah could just move to Saint Louis and I would become a polygamist.'
How do you resume talking about funerals after that?
After some thought, I decided to take it as flattery, rather than a sign that I should invest in some Mace. And after further thought, I decided to share it with all of you, because it cracked me the heck up.
**This show looks horrifying, by the way.
A huge compliment, for defs. You and Ashley must be good friends, and Ashley and Jason must be a strong couple to both discuss and then share with you that particular compliment!
ReplyDeleteI am reading this at work (shh) and literally had to bite my lip to not burst into hysterical laughter. What a flattering statement!
ReplyDeleteOh my word...you forgot the bit about the yoga pants...
ReplyDeleteI sent him a link to this post, can't wait to see his reaction!
