Forty-five minutes ago, at eleven-thirty in the morning, I went downstairs to suggest to Mr. Brett that we go to Paul’s Discount in Iowa City and buy him some clothes, and then maybe go eat something or see a movie.

I had to wake him up from his position on the couch in front of the boob tube to suggest this.

He promptly asked me to scratch his back. Which I did, because I am fond of him in spite of himself, but he went back to sleep.

This is a true story.

Now it’s twenty after twelve and I’m wondering if I should try to wake him up again to do something today, or if I should just blow it off and start with the daquiris.

    is it lame to ask you this? Can you go alone and enjoy the city visit by yourself?

    or , can you drop something onto him and say “oops sorry” to wake him up instead of waking him up intentionally?

    That’s so nice of you to have scratched his back! 🙂

  2. I think you should start with the Daiquiries, but skip the mix. Then start undressing, photograph it, and put it on the internet for all of us to enjoy. By the way, you’ve got another gift certificate coming to you from Chapters!

    S ~ He’s *so* passed out. It’s so cute. I’m totally going to wake him up again. If he doesn’t want to go, I’m going to start calling people until I find someone who does. If that fails, I’ll go alone because luckily I’m not one of those people who is bothered by eating or shopping or seeing movies alone, and it’s nearly one on a Saturday so I may be out of luck finding a companion.

    M ~ Really?! I thought that competition was for guys! Whee!!
