Crazy Things My Husband Tells Me

Whenever Ben doesn't agree with me or merely wants to antagonize me, he tells me stories to back up whatever point he is trying to make. It's super annoying because once he comes up with the story, he NEVER lets it go. Let me give you some examples.

Example 1: Snow Whites hair was black because they didn't have brown when they were animating it. Never mind the trees and the dwarfs. (As I typed this, I reminded him of this discussion and now he is trying to convince me they didn't have brown in Sleeping Beauty either)

Example 2: Gazebos originated in the South to take advantage of the climate. He knows this because he took History of American Landscaping at BYU. He said it was offered by the History Department. Interesting since I was a History Major at BYU and I've never heard of it.

Example 3: When wording an invitation "Regrets Only" isn't proper phrasing. He knows this because he was a child prodigy at Hallmark Greetings. However, after coming up with ShoeBox Greetings he became burnt out and had to give it up forever.

Example 4: "You're the first girl I ever kissed." He uses this whenever some boy from my past comes up.

Example 5: Ben apparently is unbeatable at miniature golf because he used to go to mini-golf camp during the summer. Once they spent 3 weeks on windmill strategy.

I just asked him to remind of some more examples and he said, "I don't keep track, I just tell you about my life as the stories come along."

Someday they are going to have to put me in a padded room.
