One liners

The Thursday before the big championship game, Vern hurts his neck. Some kid hit him and gave him quite a stinger. We went to urgent care and things looked OK. The bad part, Vern was not cleared to play until we went to see our primary care doctor.

On that Friday off to Docs we go to see if Vern will be able to play in the championship game.  In comes Doc. He is a happy guy and likes to joke with the kids. In he blazes with his jovial personality and joking with Vern. (He is handsome so that is a fringe benefit. hee hee)

 He then begins to ask Vern questions about his injury. How did it happen? Where does it hurt? You get the picture.

Then, Doc gets to....are you having any headaches?

Vern looks over at me, doesn't break a smile but has a twinkle in his eye and proceeds to say - Only her.

Doc can't help it. He bursts out laughing.  Then Doc asks Vern, Do you cook?

Vern replies, Yes, macaroni and cheese!

OK Doc concedes - proceed on teasing your mom.


At work later....


I'm working away in my cube and Vern is sitting beside me reading. We are quietly minding our business when we hear Lady B (for b*tch) stop in to talk to Lady A in an office very nearby.

Lady B proceeds to start in (if you work in an office you know the type - never happy and always complaining about something). ")@)@$)#$)_++(_!*_$%$&&^$^&GW%(^*(#Y@;#);@# Squawk squawk squawk" On and on and on.

Vern suddenly stops reading.  Looks up and says to me, "What is THAT ladies problem? She sure is cranky!"

It took everything in me not to burst out laughing. I did have to instant message what Vern said to a couple of people that know her and we had a good laugh.  Sometimes you can't fix cranky but you sure can laugh about it.
