Clears My Head

I've discovered a hidden...um, talent? Thanks, JM!

When I'm having a serious conversation over the phone, I simply MUST walk around the house. And if that doesn't give me the clarity I need, then I find myself standing on a chair, or the couch, or even the table. It helps, until I realize...I am standing on a piece of furniture!


Me:
oh guess what??? i laughed so hard tonight!
JM:
why?
Me:
i was talking on the phone w/ Barefoot, and realized i was standing on the table...
then my husband looked at me like what in the hell??
JM:
that's freakin' awesome! I always stand on chairs when I talk to people, usually on one foot
Me:
i was explaining to her that I always stand on furniture when I'm on the phone, but my husband interrupted to say HE DOES THAT TOO!!! i was freaking out!!! the only other person i know of who does that--is you!
JM:
your husband stands on tables? and you didn't even know?
Me:
apparently! and we've been married for going on...eight years now!
then i left b/c the kids were being too loud, and went into my room
Me:
guess where i found myself?
JM:
on the bed
Me:
standing on my bed! i seriously busted a gut
JM:
that is too freakin' funny!


*is the weird part of this story that I didn't know my husband stands on furniture? or is it that I stand on furniture, and he didn't know it? or is that we simply STAND ON FURNITURE?!

  5. Definitly too weird that you husband stand on furniture and you didn't know. Makes you wonder if he stands on the furniture at work.

  6. My hubby is a pacer, and so when my eldest is "on the phone" he paces too.

  7. I'm a multi-tasker, I HAVE to be doing something else while I'm talking on the phone. Such as cleaning, organizing my shoe closet, or flipping through a magazine.

    BSC runs marathons while he talks on the phone. If he can't pace, he can't talk.
