The Fabulous Life of Ang

Why on Earth???

There are some things I have been pondering lately. And of course - in my book, they are hilarious. You'll have to let me know if you agree.

First, if you were say about 70ish and drove a Buick and were the quintessential "old lady" type. Why would you have a bluetooth handsfree cell phone? I am not kidding, a little old lady driving a Buick almost backed into me the other day. And I wasn't even mad she almost hit me, I was more concerned about why she would have a bluetooth in her ear. Who knows - maybe she is a drug dealer. Meanwhile, back in Manitowoc, my grandma refuses to let go of her answer machine with the little tape in it from the 80s - because she doesn't want to learn about any new fangled answering machines without tapes.

Second, let's say you are at a bridal shower. You are asked to give sage advice on marriage. For the record my sage advice on marriage is to DEMAND what you want - it's the only way you will get it! Anyway, back to the bridal shower, you are asked to give advice and you say, "Marriage is all about being together with your husband and really enjoying things together. I know when my first marriage failed, it was because I really pulled away from my husband and was more concerned with my own self." Oh yes - this is almost verbatim. Where do these people come from?? Who brings up divorce at a bridal shower?

Other than that I have not a ton of news. We are continuing to settle into the new house. And planning a fabulous housewarming party for May. (If you haven't RSVPed yet - what are you waiting for??) I also have the hugest appetite ever that I am trying to keep under control- some times it works, sometimes it doesn't. Have a good week!
