That's not funny... I'm hungry

I walked into work today and Detective Hammy hit me with what I would be hearing all day: "Glad to see your wife didn't kill you on the cruise!"  Detective after detective repeated the line, "So, ya made it back alive", "Glad you weren't murdered by the Mrs!" on and on and on; all of them thought they were sooooo funny. 

One lone temp employee did not mention it; saying, "Hey, we only had a burned body in a fatal fire while you were gone."  Perhaps that's why everyone was so fixated on joking that I was murdered by my wife; it comes from a lack of real death and mayhem around here. 

What a crummy day, not because there was not much work for me, not even because everyone was telling me the same joke all day; the real reason is because the stomach is used to unlimited cruise eating, but the brain says keep that 32 lbs off. 

Pass me another celery stick.

I did the cruise things with my other desperate housewife girlfriends last february, my husbands only request was that I didn't go out on the balcony at night by myself, I said I didn't have any plans too, so no worries. !st night of the cruise once the ship set sail, I tried to radio him (nextel) that I DID feel the ship's movement (he didnt think I would because of its size! lol) I couldnt reach him while inside the restaurant, so I did step outside without thinking of the promise I made him, when I told him I can feel the ship sway, he asked about how high the waves were. I said I couldnt tell because it was dark and I was 7 levels up, he said well then look over the side and see! For one split moment I wondered if he upped my life insurance policy and didn't tell me! lol  As soon as he realized what he just told me to do he said never mind,get your butt back inside the ship! lol

That's a beautiful woman. It takes a special woman to stay married to a cop. She's a keeper, huh? Don't be chintzy on the baubles. Women are dazzled by shiny objects.
