Worth A Thousand Words
Ever 
have one of those days when you throw all caution to the wind and say what comes to your mind the second it comes to your mind?
Uhm… I had one of those days yesterday.
My wife was using my laptop. On that laptop, we both have user accounts, as does our 17 year old son.
Wifey: Why does your account have your picture and our son’s account has his picture, but my account has a picture of a dog?
Me: I don’t know. I was afraid to pick a picture you wouldn’t like.
Wifey: But a dog?
Me: Well, it is a female dog…
Wifey: (Cold, murderous stare that says “Why don’t you just go to bed and get a good night’s sleep… oh, and pay no mind to these rusty, blunt scissors.”)
Me: What?!? What did I say?
For some reason she was insulted.
P.S. I wrote this post on September 8 and scheduled it to be published in the future… September 9 to be specific. I’ve gotten enough feedback, verbal and written, over yesterday’s post that I feel the need to add a little editorial note to re-establish my neutrality, or indifference as the case may be, with regards to who pays the price for my smartass-ous-ness. There have been plenty of posts here and there where I was on the receiving end of a verbal jab… all in the name of humouring you, my adoring public. I will attempt to curb the collateral damage as best I can. (This rationalization comes to you courtesy of the letter “Y”, the number “12″, the warning comment from Deb, the wagged finger and scolding comments from Kym, and the confused stare from Gary.)
Welcome to my Web Blah... er, Blog.

throw is spelled “throw”

Thanks is spelled “thanks”. Putting faith in spell check and not seeing the forest for the trees when proof reading sometimes allows some of those things get throw… er, I mean… through.

Steve: You are a brave man! I assume Donna still hasn’t read your blog. With that being said, I still think you are hilarious!

Wednesday? Ouch… that’s such a big day!

Hey, I think Donna has a sense of humour… for proof, just check out her spouse. : )

Gee… thanks little seester. But, I have to agree… She’s also got better taste and judgment than I have. Look who she married!
