Men are SO wrong

Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho.

Say it out loud and giggle while you say it. That’s how I just said it.

Men are sometimes so blatantly wrong that it tickles me inside to the point where I think I burst an internal organ. They say something so incredibly obtuse that when I call them on their bs I feel such superiority that someone could tell me that I’d won Miss Superior Being of the Universe and I couldn’t feel any prouder. Yeah, women talk that bs trash, too, but it’s so much more fulfilling when I get to do this to my husband because HE KNOWS EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING. When I say that, I mean the man’s a genius and if you ask him, he’s never wrong about anything, even when proven blatantly wrong. Nope, not gonna admit it.

Thursday, I’d received a purse that I’d been waiting to buy for a long time. I’d wanted a Vera Bradley purse for a while, to feed the sick purse addiction that I have, but they all have extreme patterns that can be offensive.

To me, I saw that as a challenge.

I’d found a delightful blue-green combo on sale at ebags.com, which is one of my favorite places to buy stuff, and grabbed it before anyone else could take it. It will hold everything including a porsche and has pockets galore. AND IT WAS ON SALE. SALE! It was purse ambrosia. I was so excited to open it.

When I showed Leon, his reaction was, “My GOD that thing is loud! Look at those colors.”

I. saw. red.

At which point, I pulled the bag out of it’s plastic wrapper, grabbed my camera and shoved the purse up against his shirt and took this picture.

Notice anything interesting about my new LOUD purse and Leon’s SHIRT? Maybe that THEY ARE THE SAME FREAKING COLORS? Notice the resigned smile on Leon’s face and the sheepish nature as he realizes exactly what’s going on?

Yep.

It’s good to be the queen.

Sure is.
