My Hubby and his Guitar-Playing Girlfriend...

Let me tell you about this hubby of mine! Just the other night (in DreamLand), I found out my husband has another family. Don't really know how he has time for them when we keep him so busy. I was quite surprised to find this out, and asked him, with a bit of wonder and maybe a bit more of sarcasm, "Anything else I should know? Do you have a girlfriend as well that you want to tell me about?"

He answered, just as casually as I would have asked him if he would like mashed potatoes and gravy for dinner, "Yeah, I do. She has blue hair and she plays a guitar." Well, you know how things in DreamLand can be. I instantly had a mental picture of this...ahem...guitar-playing girlfriend of his. She had brown hair, not blue, and she wasn't even cute!!!! I wasn't even as devastated as I was astounded. I mean, this man has never even indicated he likes guitar-playing girls. Piano player? Yes, I could see that. But guitar player and not. even. cute?

Well, on my way home from bringing the girls to school the next morning, my mind snapped back to this image of the not-even-cute girlfriend of his. When I got home, I parked the van, pulled out my cell phone and texted him this,

"Last night in DreamLand you casually told me you have a girlfriend, who plays guitar. I mean, she wasn't even cute! So, you better tell that guitar-playing girlfriend of yours that she better watch her back! I'm gonna keep an eye open for her and if I see her, I'm going to sneak up on her and bust her guitar!"

His reply: "Well, maybe you should take up playing guitar and then I would have a cute guitar player. :)"

Ain't he just great? :)

Funny how dreams can be ... so strange, and sometimes feeling so real. I like your hubby's response! Got that guitar yet? (-:

Just today Bee and I saw 2 guitars (or as she says KI-tars) in the clearance aisle at our local everything store. We had fun strumming them for a bit. So if you need one, there you go.
