Sunday story

We were supposed to go hiking yesterday, but we had to meet with the balcony guy (we've been waiting over a month for this) to get started with the replacement of two rotted balconies. Then we did chores. I did take a minute to tape a little story for you. Tomorrow I'll have a few pics of our hike today.

Awww, poor thing. Emily was probably nauseated by the realization that even an obviously gay male assumes her spouse or partner must (of course!) be a "boy." I know I'd sure gag at that assumption. LOL!

Maybe you need to carry a barf bag with you. If she is going to be leaving class like that that on a regular basis, she'll miss important lessons and you'll have to flunk her.

I know I think of barfing when I think of some of my boyfriends...

bob said...

Maybe she had one of those new ipecac lattes that are popular the the bulemics these days.

Did you continue with .. "Now then, class, what are three other ways to say 'Emily's not feeling well'?"

There was a girl in my class in High School. All a person had to say was the woord "Vomit" and she would proceed to loose her lunch. Some guys (not me of course) would torment her to no end. Saying Phyllis I hope you don't Vomit on anybody. Then laughing as she trys to make it to the little girls room.

Maybe it wasn't what you asked, but simply poor timing. Perhaps she wasn't feeling well. I know my best friend's wife used to throw-up a lot when she was pregnant. I remember once visiting them and Lindsey just suddenly did your (very well done) upchuck-mime and fled the room.

Have a wonderful hike today, Torn.

Okay, I'm a girl... I can say I have never started to vomit at the mention of a boyfriend or lack of one.

But how embarrassing for her. Reminds me of Bush senior barfing into the Japanese politician's lap a few years back.

Mortification.

I feel bad for someone who could be so broken up about lost love that they would feel like barfing at the mere mention of it. What-ever. ;) Or maybe she ate some bad eggs. Either way, don't tiptoe, but do bring a large container to class to hand to her if need be. Have a nice hike.

See? This is why I never ask my students anything about their personal lives. Well, that and I don't care to know. ;)

You started laughing? I'm kind of shocked. That sounds a little harsh to me.

don said...

It sounds like an episode of Little Britain. You know, the one where a very proper elderly lady spews projectile vomit whenever someone says a secret trigger word. Her English Sheepdog also exhibits the same behaviour in one skit. So shocking that it is funny.

My bet is morning sickness. But then, as a gay man, the only experience I have with that had to do with drinking a lot the night before!

This Boy Elroy said...

I would have laughed too.

I'm with Wayne: morning sickness... and the reference to the boyfriend was not the cause.

Chunks said...

Maybe it was a bad breakfast sandwich from McDonald's or something. I would have laughed too. You and I are cut from the same weird cloth, I think!

The volume didn't work with the video, but it's good to see you looking so tan and relaxed. Damn, I know I missed a good story!!!!

Jess said...

I'm just glad you sat down to record the story for us. You're looking quite handsome! :)

Lacey said...

You have hairy legs. Nice.

Scottsdale Girl said...

Ok first thing is first. Dude you are HAWT!!!!!!

Now, Emily
A) her boyfriend is a prick and she is sensitive and whatevs
B) she is a lesbian and men repulse her
C) she was sick (flu/food poisoning)
D) she was sick (with child)
E) will you try to find out what happened? I might not sleep without a conclusion to this story.

Also? I would have laughed to because generally, I am a nervous laugher.

dawn said...

Hold on, let me see if there is any part two to this story, I have to know what was up with Emily.

...
No, nothing.

Damnit.

Emily's got issues.

Maybe you need to mind your own business and not ask personal questions?

You're so mean.

You should've laughed after she left the room.
