April 19, 2004--My funny husband

I thought I'd share a funny story. I thought it was funny, anyway. At the very least it will serve to keep my blog active.

Erick went shopping Saturday morning after working all night Friday. I sent him with the Aldi list, figuring it would save a trip to town. He got there before Aldi opened, and when he pulled into the parking space the rising sun was in his eyes. He leaned back in his seat to avoid the glare, and promptly fell asleep. He woke up about a half hour later, sweating profusely. It was a warm day and his window was rolled up. Blearly-eyed and sweaty, he went into Aldis to do his shopping. He realized then that he did not bring a pen to mark off the items on his list, so he licked his finger and smudged them out instead as he went along.

I about died laughing when he was telling me this. I thought about the employees opening the store and noticing the man snoring in the car next to the store. (He snores with his mouth wide open.) They probably wondered what kind of a bum this was who would sleep outside the store, and then come in sweating like a pig and use his spit to mark out items on his shopping list!
