I love being married to the insane.

So I'm getting ready to go to bed last night when this conversation happens:

CrazyInsaneWife: "You know...you look like Walter Matthau"

ME: "WHAT????"

CrazyInsaneWife: "I didn't mean that in a bad way"

The conversation pretty much ended there because I realized I was talking to a totally insane non-rational person. There is no way to tell a man he looks like Walter Matthau in a 'good way'.

It's like me telling the ugliest woman on earth "You know Whoopi...you kinda look like Hillary Clinton"

WHOOPI: "What????!!!!!"

Moral of the story:

Never tell a man he looks like Walter Matthau and never tell a woman she looks like Hillary Clinton. Not even in a good way. There is no good way.

PS:
I look nothing like Walter Matthau. Or Hillary Clinton.

PSS:
Or Whoopi Goldberg

    Hillary Clinton looks a little like Walter Matthau, though, don't you think?

  4. I like everything about Hillary Clinton except for her looks, personality, and everything she stands for.

    (And I'm actually more Lemmon than Hoag...even though he's a bit of a fancy lad)

  7. Maybe it's because you were wearing women's underpants.

    I knew it was just a misunderstanding.

    Scorpios are often misunderstood.

  11. You looked a little like Whoopie that night in the cheap motel room when you dressed up as a nun and I dressed up as a.....ooops.

    Sorry. Forgot this was a semi-public space.

  12. I wasn't dressed as a nun...I was dressed as a panda. A Catholic Panda. A Catholic Female Panda.

  13. One year, a friend of mine came to a Halloween party as a nun and her husband came as a cardinal*. Somewhere I have a posed picture of them makin' out. Really, really funny.

    *(The religious figure, not the bird...an important distinction.)
