It happens more often than I’d like to admit.

So, the other night, John and I decided to melt some semisweet baker’s chocolate and dip bananas in it. Mmmmm.

I was preparing us each a little cup of melted chocolate to use, and made his first. When it was done, I held out his banana and said, “Ok, it’s done.” He just stood where he was, across the kitchen, playing with his phone. I was annoyed, because I knew that the chocolate would not be good for dipping once it started to cool down.

“Are you going to come stick it in now or are you going to wait until it gets hard?”

He just looked at me and let it sink in, giving me sufficient time to feel like a moron.

Because, really, we all know it’s futile to try to stick it in before it’s hard. Duh.

Pssst. I was probably just excited about my Valentine… this awesome blogger friend of mine… who’s driving down to see me this week ….

This is way funnier than us saying things like “Heh. You said BALLS.”

#14 by Lilacspecs on February 12, 2008 - 2:32 AM

It is funny, although I do still laugh to myself when someone says “balls”.

#16 by Stella on February 12, 2008 - 4:06 AM

We had my Dad and his very Christian wife around for dinner a couple of weeks ago, and I was whingeing that my bridesmaid still hadn’t bought her dress, four days before the wedding. ‘Oh well,’ I said, ‘She can come in her underpants, if that’s what she wants to do!’
I couldn’t work out why Bobby choked on his dinner.

I have more comment, innuendo (God, I love that word), outuexito running around in my head right now that my fingers almost can’t type because there so much stuff in there screaming LET ME OUT!! and I can’t do that because these are friends out here and I really don’t want to ruin my reputation any worse than it is.

To Think is To Create:

Yeah, but… “balls” is funny… we have innumerable moments like that, too. For example, don’t even try to come anywhere NEAR us with any reference to “69″ if you don’t want to hear immature giggling.

#28 by Autumn Dahlia on February 12, 2008 - 9:28 AM

We made those Sunday. I managed to not make it into a porn though, like…ahem…. SOME people.

Ok, but I thought it. So what’s worse, thinking it and not saying it? Or saying it and not thinking it?

I’m so Mr. Miyagi.

My husband and I have have these little things come up pretty regularly. (See there I did it again. Oh well, guess you have to have a dirty mind to get that one.)

I refer to them as “out of context” my site.

#30 by Jennifer on February 12, 2008 - 9:49 AM

Sounds like my house. Example: We got more balls for my son’s ball pit (so its deep enough for therapy) and my husband goes, is that enough balls for you. I cracked up and had to leave the room with my daughter going, daddy, what’s so funny?

#31 by Kellyology on February 12, 2008 - 9:50 AM

Your house is a little hotter than mine I guess. Our latest joke involving innuendo was in regard to a fart. Perhaps our 8-year-old boy is rubbing off on us.

You weren’t clear.

Does the putting it in before it gets hard OR saying really stupid things happen more often than not?

Just clarifying.

And who is the mysterious blogger visiting?

#36 by Eve on February 12, 2008 - 12:26 PM

Oh, you bring back so many memories for me. From the time I was a little kid I had a knack for saying things that just came out wrong. Being a very naive and uninformed teenager I didn’t know what everyone was laughing at when I would come out with one of these things – and no one would ever explain to me what I had said. I always knew by the way they snickered that I had said something riske’ but never knew what it was. I think it was more fun for the rest of the gang to laugh at me than it would have been to educate me. I was very traumatized. This rarely happens to me these days because most of my conversation is with my grandchildren, aged 6-10.

Whenever I slip up and make a comment like that to Justin or even my coworkers, I always get a “that’s what she said!!”

My coworkers and I are always listening out for comments like that at work. We work at a denture office and our doctors are always cracking us up with comments like…”is that too thick in the back of your throat” or “open wide and and let me slip this in” or a personal favorite…”can your close your lips around it”. Oh man, what fun that is for us retards to laugh at!! You would think we were all in the 7th grade or something.

Only he’d accentuate what I said, so I’d realize what I said.

#56 by dkaye on February 15, 2008 - 10:18 PM

Sometimes you just don’t realize the connection until the breath actually hits the air. That’s hysterical. Just wait until Braden is old enough to catch the innuendos. Can’t claim naivety with my 17-year old – he picks on them quicker than lightning! Is he embarrassed? Not hardly.
