Kind of blog worthy

Nothing really happened this weekend. As I mentioned yesterday, it was gloomy. I read all afternoon yesterday and I am nearly through The DaVinci Code. I'll admit it is a page turner. I even read in bed before turning out the light. I haven't done that in years.

Yesterday morning, as spouse was taking a shower, I heard coins clang against porcelain and then the shout of spouse, "Hey, stop that!" Since I was in another room, I figured he was talking to himself. Ten minutes later, he came into the office and said, "Why did you throw quarters at me in the shower?"

"Um, I didn't throw any quarters at you honey."

"Oh."

"So why are you asking that?"

"Two quarters fell on the floor of the shower while I was in there, I guess they were in my crack."

I thought about it for a moment and remembered that he had fallen asleep on the couch Saturday night in his clothes and that in the morning there were coins strewn about.

Laughing, I said, "I think you must be right, they must have been stuck to you somewhere."

I don't think this has ever happened to me before. I couldn't help making cracks (ba-dum-bum) about spouse's own little coin purse. Snicker.

  1. I love the idea of spouse with coins stuck all over him. I also think it's hilarious that he thought you would be throwing coins at him while he was showering.

    Oh to have seen a video of this conversation. That story cracked me up. How long were those Quarters stuck in his Crack? If I were you I would have said, "Hey you owe me 50 cents, I stuck a dollar in there." Ed

  12. He should be careful -- A couple of toonies in the wrong place could be dangerous.

  14. Withstanding the explanation of the coins strewn all over the sofa, how did 2 quarters get in Serge's crack if he was wearing clothes??? This baffles me. What a funny story!

    On a somewhat related note (since we're talking about Serge), I was recounting your latest poo dream to my spouse and made reference that you usually refer to Serge as 'Spouse' on your blog. My spouse loved that reference and has requested that I refer to him as 'Spouse' on my blog from now on. You've started a movement, and I'm not talking about poo.

    Mark :-)

  16. So, he doesn't wear underwear, I presume......
    Let's see....other places to hide coins on one's body.......armpits, behind the ears, between the toes.....others??

    Thanks for the laugh, you just made my week!

  19. All I have to say is - his system is more secure than a wallet, so let him be! :P

    LOL :)) I guess I'll never look at a 'twoonie' in quite the same way ever again after reading this post, if you catch my drift... I've been meaning to leave a comment on your blog for some time now BTW; I've been following it for a couple of months and I want you to know that I really enjoy reading about your and Serge's adventures in Montreal... Keep up the good work!

    Spouse must have a nice round, firm ass for coins to get stuck in it! ;)

  26. Maybe he's working as a stripper on the side? Sicne you silly Canadians don't have $1 bills, the guys stuck the loonies in his crack and he forgot about them.

    That, or your sex life is REALLY much more interesting that anything I've ever been involved in. Coins in the crack....I think i might saw a porno titled that once.

    HUGS...

  27. Hey, maybe it wasn't the sofa.

    I'm thinking a Goose & the Golden Egg deal, here: maybe he's Spouting Coin out his ass.

    What have you been feeding him? Keep it up, could pay off big.

  28. Gives new meaning to the phrase, "Shake yo' moneymaker".
    I'd increase his mineral intake, since money is falling out of his ass now.
