Life Is A Roller Coaster..

~ the britchy one

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she’d like to have for her birthday.

‘I’d like to be six again’, she replied, still looking in the mirror .

On the morning of her Birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six Flags theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Roller Coaster, everything there was.

Five hours later they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside

down. He then took her to a McDonald’s where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a

chocolate shake. Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M’s. What a fabulous adventure!

Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted.

He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, ‘Well Dear, what was it like being six again?’

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed.

‘I meant my dress size, you retard!!!!’

The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong.

A PROUD American Citizen who was born and bred in England and now resides in the US. I’m married to an American who really didn’t have a clue what he was letting himself in for - poor sod! I’m a cranky bitch who loves cats and books and hates chocolate, politics and Dave’s. Oh and mosquitos. I hate those blood sucking parasites but since I’ve already mentioned politics I’m repeating myself! I’m a short, skinny redhead, 3 kids, 2 dogs, not enough cats and a mouth with a death wish. Blood group - certifiable.

    1. Holy Crap that’s terrifying. I’ve just struggled reading through it, both because it’s a daunting read and because thanks to my new lenses, I can’t see up close! I’m using a selfie stick to read and guessing at my typing! Going out to buy some reading glasses when ‘im indoors gets home.
      Do you have to take blood thinners now? My dad has several aneurysm and DVTs and he’s on constant blood meds and compression socks etc. I must admit, it’s something I’m very conscious of on long journeys whether flying or driving. I’ll get out of the car at least every two hours just to move. Glad you’re here to tell us! I’ve been awol for a couple of months but I’m back now – look after yourself 😊

      1. haha! It’s so funny. Reminds me of another story in an old email. In the story, an old woman told her old husband that she wanted some ice-cream, then said “Here. I’ll write it down so that you don’t forget”. He insisted that he wouldn’t forget, but she wrote it down anyway and gave it to him. He went inside and got her a cup of tea, or something that wasn’t what she asked for. He went back outside to where she was and she looked at what he had gotten her and exclaimed “See? I told you you’d forget. You forgot the ketchup.”
