This morning I get an email from all people, my sister. We haven't been what you would call close, since she's never agreed with my lifestyle, so it was a surprise to have her forward me this joke. It's actually funny, I thought, so I'm telling it here.
A successful rancher died and left everything to his devoted wife. She was a very good-looking woman and determined to keep the ranch, but knew very little about ranching , so she decided to place an ad in the newspaper for a ranch hand.
Two cowboys applied for the job. One was gay and the other a drunk.
She thought long and hard about it, and when no one else applied she decided to hire the gay guy, figuring it would be safer to have him around the house then the drunk.
He proved to be a hard worker who put long hours everyday and knew a lot about ranching. For weeks, the two of them worked, and the ranch was doing very well. Then one day, the rancher's wife said to the hired hand, "You've done a really good job, and the ranch looks great. You should go into town and have some fun."
The hired hand readily agreed and went into town on Saturday night.
One o'clock came, however, and he didn't return. Two o'clock and no hired hand. Finally, he returned around two-thirty, and upon entering the room he found the rancher's widow sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine waiting for him. She quietly called him over to her.
"Unbutton my blouse and take it off," she said.
Trembling, he did as she directed.
"Now take off my boots."
He did as she asked ever so slowly.
"Now take off my socks."
He removed each gently and placed them neatly by her boots.
"Now take off my skirt."
He slowly unbuttoned it, constantly watching her eyes in the firelight.
"Now take off my bra."
Again with trembling hands he did as he was told and dropped it on the floor.
Then she looked at him and said, "If you ever wear my clothes into town again, you're fired!"
I start teaching my workshop this Tuesday. I think I'll open my lecture with this joke.
Also, if anybody is considering buying me chocolates for Valentine's Day - dark, please. Much tastier than milk.

How were your first day of classes? Settled in alright? How about celebrating with your old man, some time this week. I'm going to be away this weekend, but any evening before Friday is cool with me.
