Exchanges With The Hubs (And Others)

Monday, March 9, 2026

We're watching a TV show where a middle-aged family man is finally coming out of the closet.

Hubs: You should be preparing yourself for that possibility. I might decide I'm gay someday.
Me: It's not like it would be a shock.

Shakira is performing and I am going to sequester myself to watch her.

Me: So... Just get whatever you need from our bedroom and stay out for a while. I'll be in there with the door locked.

Hubs: I won't see you that evening?

Me: No. I'm not coming out. I'll make sure I have water. Maybe some crackers.

She's still a goddess. For more Shakira, click here or here or here or here or here or here.

My daughters are fond of the "yo mama" retort and all its iterations.

Hubs: What do y'all want to watch?

15yo: Let's watch Blade.

12yo: No, I want to watch more of a horror movie.

15yo: Your mother is a horror movie.

12yo: Mom, are you a horror movie?

Me: I'm a shit show. Does that count?

Hubs and I are big fans of Jersey Mike's. We usually get cheesesteaks to eat immediately, and a cold sub to split the next day.

We live in a rural area where Dollar Generals abound.

Hubs: Why are you always so mean and hateful to me?

Me: Why do you continue to take it like a giant loser?

Hubs: Valid question.
