This might become a regular series – our weekend conversations are deteriorating by the minute.
I’ve recently started running again and my right ankle and hip have been giving me trouble. As I was lying on the floor, trying to remember the exercises my former physical therapist taught me, I mentioned how cool it would be if D was a physical therapist. Free therapy and adjustments for life!
He looked up from his magazine and without missing a beat, said, “It would be even cooler if you were a hooker for free.”

June 24, 2007 at 4:43 pmMy hips resemble that of an 80 year old as of late. No amount of stretching has lessened the pain. If you remember/think of something (in your spare time, when you’re not learning how to become a hooker) let me know.

June 25, 2007 at 4:43 amOh my goodness, that just made me almost spray coffee all over the laptop! D is just hilarious.
As for running, well, if I can get back into it this fall, I am sure I will be crying in pain with you. Hubby runs and is always in pain, I keep telling him to choose a different sport.

June 25, 2007 at 6:42 amHA!!! Love the story! I’m delurking to share a similar story from my husband…
We were on vacation in China and at what we nicknamed “The Temple of One-Thousand Challenges” and there was this little bridge that if you crossed it in 9 steps holding the hand of your partner you would be together not only in this lifetime but also in the next. I said, You want to? and he answered without missing a beat, “You’ll probably come back as something cool like a monkey and I’ll just be a lice on your skin.”

June 25, 2007 at 10:21 amWhile I appreciate D’s sense of humor, I need to correct him with his logic, because if the hooker is really doing it for free, then she wouldn’t be a hooker, would she?
