"man day"

Friday, August 24, 2012

i have a few more hours before 12 a.m. when i will lose husband for 24 hours. you see, when the clock strikes 12, husband will turn into a pumpkin. bibbity bobbity boo! POOF! he'll be gone. not really becoming a pumpkin but off to scale the adventures of "man day." he's been looking forward to man day for what seems like weeks. what is man day you ask? well i guess you could say it's when a friend - a married friend, whose young daughter and five months pregnant wife leave town for a a few days - emails your risk loving husband about jumping off cliffs into cold water below. and then he further sweetens the deal by adding the redskins-colts preseason game to the "man day" agenda. well how is a risk-adverse wife supposed to compete with that? she can't. i can't. so instead, i'll be making a pit stop at the bank tonight. withdraw me some cash and go on my own adventure tomorrow that will most likely involve buying jewelry at eastern market. he day - she day. fair is fair.

happy friday and enjoy the weekend! man day pictures to come (hopefully!)

    5. No sushi.
    6. No umbrellas.
    7. One wife/significant other call per Man-Day.
    8. No real food until dinner but unlimited Man-snacks as required until dinner.
    9. No miniature golf.
    10. No Wilson Phillips.
    11. Acceptable Man-Day appetizers include raw meat, nachos, loaded tots. Unacceptable appetizers include cheese plate with fruit and carmelized walnuts, hummus.
