f/u Sheep Lovers
I totally laughed out loud and thought of you guys yesterday...We were driving happily along on our way to get the Christmas tree. It was a busy weekend and stores had people/mascots out on the side of the road all over the place. We saw a guy dressed up like the Serta sheep in front of the mattress store. Of course, I oohed and ahhed and waved, he waved back. Next thing I know, my husband (who apparently is 16), swerved and pointed our giant SUV right towards this poor unsuspecting sheep, pretending to hit him! This poor guy jumped about a mile. I was scolding my husband for being such an idiot as he was chuckling to himself. I look in the side mirror and the sheep gives the old "Up yours!" hand motion to our car as we're driving away. Something about a man in a sheep costume flipping me off made me laugh out loud. I was trying to contain my laughter as to not encourage my 16-year-old husband and continued scolding him. He finally apologized and said "sorry babe, I'm a baaaaadd boy." And I was crying from laughing so hard.
Does anyone else have an embarrassing/hilarious husband story??

haha, it was pretty hilarious. But that is classic 'us.' I follow the rules and try to be very conscientious of everyone else's feelings and my H is a naughty troublemaker who has no problem with what anyone else thinks. OPPOSITES!
But yes Mamie, if I would have been alone and the sheep would have given me the Up Yours! motion, I probably would have cried. I felt so bad for that poor guy yesterday...LOL.
haha, you should have just yelled out the window "I'll see you again - LINING MY UGGS!" and pulled away quickly, tires squealing.
It would have been epic.
YES! angel, remember this line for the next your H pisses off a man in a sheep costume! It's also appropriate when coming across real sheep.

Funny story, out in the sticks this weekend, I hit a turkey.
I'm not kidding.
The lone wild turkey left in Berkshire County, MA, I nailed driving my brother's truck whilst helping my mom move. It ran out into the westbumfuck road I was traveling too fast on, I couldn't swerve because it was icy out, and I nailed the sucker. Didn't kill it tho, because it kind of ran off afterwards, but... I hit a turkey. A TURKEY.
I'm sososo glad to be back in the city where I belong.
