    A quick quiz, then back to the sofa...

    by Mindi Cherry

    FacebookPinEmail

    I'm wiped.

    What I thought was just a minor sniffle on Sunday afternoon has kept my fat ass on the sofa with sinuses that feel like they are about to explode and chills and shivers like I haven't seen since the epidural started to wear off after Prince #2 was born.

    It didn't help that we ended up with a serious cold snap/monsoon yesterday and it was about 40 degrees outside.  Of course, being the cheap ass wise person that I am, I refused to turn on the heat.  One simply does NOT turn on the heat in May!

    But I do have a question....perhaps my understanding of male fashion is too heavily influenced by Shane & David and Brock and Ash, but is this picture:

    a)  the latest fashion?

    b)  a clever attempt to get the wife thinking about sex by having a belt pointing right to his "most special muscle"?

    c)  proof that my husband cannot be trusted to pick out his own clothes?

    He assures me that the "dangling belt" is the latest fashion...and while I can certainly appreciate an extra 10 inches, I typically don't think of a belt in those cases (well - sometimes, but that is a whole other post for an entirely different blog)

      What's wrong with Shane & David?? Just push the rewind button...

      I think the outfit is strange more because of the colors than because of the belt. Those shorts aren't neutral enough to be with a red shirt. Try khaki instead of olive and then it will be much better.

      I hope you are feeling better, Mindi. And remember that being sick is the perfect catalyst for quitting smoking!

      Uhm... C. Definitely C. "Current Fashion" no more applies for grown men than it does to grown women - by "current fashion" I mean strange fashion anomalies like long dangly belts. Or thongs sticking out of one's pants, or pants worn so low that one's boxer shorts are spilling out of the top...

      Poor thing.

      At least he is trying, Min... feel better! 🙂

      I choose "C". Don't worry. My husband suffers from the same condition. He's color and fashion blind.

      Clearly option C.

      But I'm still curious about that other post and entirely different blog. 😉

      Perhaps he was trying to get in his "Indiana Jones" mode - you know if you whip that belt out it can double as, well, a whip.

      Movie comes out on May 22. Just ask my 9 year old who has been seen walking around with 3 of his belts linked together and an old purse of mine slung across his body bandolier style. At least your DH didn't have the purse...or did he?

      I know I am late - but I think he is going more for the Johnny Depp - Pirate look......either that or the "recently lost a shitload of weight look"
