Sometimes, I am amazed at how ANYONE can put up with my peculiar self, let alone be MARRIED to me.
The other day, while driving and talking to Shannon on the phone, I saw a blimp in the sky. Shannon then became the brunt of my somewhat one-sided phone conversation that went something like this (spoken at roughly 100mph):
Me: I’m pretty sure I see a blimp in the sky!! Maybe it’s just a balloon. You know how they use those big balloons for car dealerships? Nah..no way! It’s too far up there! That couldn’t be a regular balloon. It’s GOT to be a blimp!
Shannon: Oh….?
Me: It IS! That’s a blimp! It’s the MetLife blimp! I wonder if they give people rides! I want a blimp! We could ride in a blimp and then skydive from it. No…wait…it’s not high enough for sky diving….WE COULD BUNGEE JUMP!! Perfect!! Do you think they give bungee jump rides in blimps!?? Surely not the MetLife blimp. That’s life insurance, right? I doubt a life insurance company would endorse bungee jumping.
Shannon: What?
Me: BUNGEE JUMPING!! I wonder what it costs to rent a blimp. Think anyone rents them? We should have a blimp party! There can be lights and giant speakers and loud music. A dance party in a blimp!! Think it’s big enough?? They should definitely rent out blimps for dance parties!! I wonder how many people could fit in a blimp…A party blimp would certainly be bigger than a regular blimp. It’d by like a party bus….that FLOATS!!
WHERE CAN WE RENT A FLOATING PARTY BLIMP???
Shannon: Uh…..

Shannon and I recently discussed the fact that his suitcase is now missing a wheel…not long after, this text conversation happened:
Shannon: I just smelled my arm pits, and they stink.
Leah: Hahaha! Why aren’t you wearing deodorant?
Shannon: I am.
Leah: Must’ve worn off. It may be your suitcase wheel took it. They ran off together.
Shannon: LOL Yup
Leah: It’s better this way. You may be stinky, but they’re happy now.
Shannon: Sacrifices

Now is the moment that Shan realizes he could, at any second, become the victim of my blog.
Your conversation sounds EXACTLY like my cousin, so rest assured – you are not the only person that has conversations like that.
That does give a little comfort. :)
Normal mean need us weird women to spice up their lives. After one of my manic childish outbursts my boyfriend just stays quiet for a moment then scrunches up his nose and goes “WEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIRD.”
Hahaha! Perfect reaction!!!
If I were you, that would be the moment I would answer with a laughing tongue razz! :P”’
*MEN ugh, geeze.
Heehee
We all need someone we can get excited over blimps with
Ha ha!! Wise words….wise words.
