sleepy head

i want to share a funny story:

leeser worked the night shift last night and also again today. she doesn't have to be to work until 2:30 or whatever in the afternoon, so on these days she always gets her weary bones out of bed at 6am to drop me off at work (this is why i'm marrying her...well it's not the only reason, but a contributing factor). she wandered out to the car a bit bleary eyed this morning. i walked out behind her and pulled the door shut behind me, just as i did i looked down at saw her carefully watching where she walked; she was barefoot.

knowing that she planned to pick up a few things from the grocery store on the way home i said, "mate, where's your shoes?" she stopped and turned to face me and looked right at me and in all seriousness said, "they are on your feet." all of a sudden she realized that i was wearing my own shoes and turned to go back into the house to get some for herself. i stood in the driveway laughing and i've been laughing all day, each time i think of it. maybe it isn't funny to someone who wasn't there, so sorry if it wasn't.

in her defense, i was wearing khaki pants and a polo and adidas sandals, which wouldn't be what i normally wear to work. you see the shoes i wanted were still in the car from a weekend away and i didn't want to get my feet dirty then have to put on socks, thus the sandals. not in her defense, our feet are very different sizes. mine are only about a 7 and she is more like an 8.5 or 9. it was all just a silly bunch of silliness. ha ha.
