The following is a conversation that I had with my wife:
Wife: You have more hair.
Me: Of course I do.
Wife: No, I mean you have more hair on your back and shoulders.
Me: Well, yeah. I’m getting older.
Wife: What do you mean?
Me: I mean, when guys get older, they grow more hair in parts other than their head. It happens to all guys.
Wife: Eeww! Really?
Me: Yeah.
Wife: That’s…I don’t know how I feel about that.
Me: Well, hopefully you like it, because it’s only going to get worse as I get older.
Wife: …
Me: Your dad is probably getting more hairy.
Wife: Ew! Ew! Ew! (runs away into the other room)
Me: Chuckles. Stops and looks at back in the mirror.
Every marriage has their little things that make life interesting. They’re the odd conversations you have where you learn something surprising about your partner. The time when you see your spouse display a heretofore unknown talent for drawing after knowing them for three years. Those little things stick in your memory and make you smile when you remember them, even years later.
It’s these little things that make the best friends and the best lovers. Those little things are the little stitches, the tiny drops of glue that form the bond between you and your partner. Love can last a lifetime. You just have to fill it with those little things that make you laugh.
What are the little things in your marriage that make you laugh?



Woohoo! Sorry lady, but here comes the fuzz. Thats classic. Surprising though that she was unawares of our increased manliness as we age.
I have had a slow yet consistant influx of fur as I age.
I'll tell ya, it's hard to shave your own back. I feel like an contortionist in a circus with my trimmer bending backwords. I had my Lilly do it once, but she was tramautized, well i was traumitized. My mom did itonce, but that was creepy. So I got the Mangrooomer at BedBathBeyond, good idea but its crap. The blades went compltely dull and unusable after three shaves.
