Sometimes when Lib makes a shopping list for me, she just draws the items on the list for fun and because it's cute; I like when she does it because, like a five-year-old, I think it's cool, and a seemingly mundane chore becomes more like an exciting scavenger hunt; however, when I pulled out the list to double check it in the checkout line, I realized the person behind me was also looking at my list, and I felt stupid for being a thirty-three year old man with a picture-based grocerly list; moreover, I realized that the woman probably thought I must be illiterate if someone had to draw my grocery list, so I texted Lib a rather lenghty text explaining all of this just so the woman knew that I could read and write, making sure she couldn't see what I was texting, but so that she would know I was texting.
you all have too much time.
ReplyDeleteI have a response, but if you want to know what it is, you'll have to call me. I imagine you'd just want to hear it rather than struggle through the problem of attempting to read.
ReplyDeleteperhaps she can draw you a "map" with "special" features the next time you celebrate a anniversary...perhaps something along the lines of an orange, or an orange slice. That could be fun, home-made cartoon porn, just like 3rd grade.
ReplyDeleteI drew my first naked woman at the age of four, and it had all the right parts according to my mother; evidently, my defense was that I had seen it in grandma's art book, and you can't punish a kid for "art."
