I know I haven't posted in a long while but I feel like I finally have a livejournal worthy story.
So here's the set up. I'm not afraid to said it money has been tight for Mims and I. So to cut some costs I've been bringing my lunch to work instead of going to buy it on my lunch break. Well Mims comes home Tuesday evening and happens to mention that she made a sandwich for her lunch but never ate it. She offers it as a plain turkey sandwich with nothing on it. Already made sandwich for the win; it'll save me a few precious minutes in the morning. Wednesday morning, tell Mims goodbye and pack my lunch which was easy with a pre-made sandwich. Well I go about the day doing my work and when lunch time comes around I get a call from the Distribution Center for my company. They are having some kind of computer problem and I need to go check on it. So I figure I'll go check this out real quick, come back and then go to lunch. Well that didn't happen that way, I was at the DC for longer than than expected and then caught in traffic on the way back, and at this point I'm starving. Well I had left my lunch at the store so I figured what the hell and got some BK instead. Turkey sandwich comes home for a second time. Well Thursday morning, rinse, repeat. This time I get a chance to take my lunch without interruptions. So I'm on the phone with Mims and I've just drove out to the lake front for some scenery while I eat. I open the bag and take the turkey sandwich out and I look at and think, "This is kinda thin, what'd she do put two slices on it?" I take the sandwich out only to reveal...
Two Pieces of Bread...
So I say to my wife, "Where's the turkey?!"
"You didn't take the turkey?" She replies.
"What do you mean?" I retort.
"The turkey is still in the fridge then" she says with a giggle.
"What the crap is it doing there?!" I exclaim.
And here's the strangest thing I've heard in a long time:
"I never put the turkey on the sandwich if I'm not going to eat it right way, It makes the bread soggy."
With that I have a giggling wife on the phone and two pieces of bread for lunch. Oh I get a "I'm sorry" somewhere between the giggles from her, but I cannot understand how this woman thinks sometimes. I mean two days ago she tells me that she already made a sandwich for me to take, but I ask:
How do you make a sandwich if the meat isn't even with the bread!
Well this question just gets more giggling and sorries out of Mims.
In conclusion, did I marry a strange girl... you betcha.
The phone convo ended like this,
"I'm sorry baby I thought you saw the turkey in the fridge"
"Well when you tell me the sandwich is made I'm not looking for anything in the fridge."
She giggles, "I'm so sorry sweetheart, do you still love me?"
"Of course I do, now let me go... I'm going to Rally's"
