My wife: “Have you met our new neighbour?” Me: “He doesn’t even have a single grass stain on his white lawn-mowing shoes. You can’t trust a person like that!” What do we learn from cattle, buffalo and elephants? It’s impossible to lose weight by eating green grass, salads and walking. Eyelashes are supposed to prevent things from going into your eyes, but whenever I have something in my eye, it’s always an eyelash. Eyeronic. No one is more determined than a woman rearranging furniture by herself. You know when you tap a YouTube video to see how much longer it is? I wish you could do that to certain people when they’re talking. Did you know the guy who named the umbrella meant to call it brella, but he hesitated. Me: [says something hilarious] My kids: [eye roll] My husband: [burps] My kids: [hysterical laughter] “Daddy’s so much funnier than you are, Mom!” Camrose City Police sent me a picture of me speeding. I sent them a picture of a cheque. Then they sent me a picture of handcuffs. Well played. A neighbour suggested putting sheep manure on my strawberries. I’m not doing that again. I’m going back to whipped cream. The dock at Mirror Lake is made of hickory wood. If it’s been raining, caution is advised, because it becomes a slippery hickory dock. My girlfriend borrowed $100 from me. After three years, when we broke up, she returned exactly $100. I lost interest in that relationship, and now I’m just left a loan. I deserve credit for this. Why do seagulls fl y over the sea? Because if they fl ew over the bay, they’d be called bagels. Can’t believe how much time my parents spent teaching me what sounds barnyard animals make. I have almost never needed that as an adult. I’m done being a people pleaser. As long as everyone’s okay with that. I like telling dad jokes, but I don’t have any kids. I guess that makes me a Faux Pa. The benefits of a good vocabulary: I recently called an old engineering buddy of mine and asked what he was doing these days. He replied that he was working on “Aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminum and steel under a constrained environment.” I was impressed until, upon further inquiry, I learned that he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife’s supervision. It’s not my fault I have a double chin. When God was passing out chins, I thought He said gins, so I asked for a double. This week in Camrose retirement facilities, contestants will be playing the game called, “Guess What the Tattoo Used To Be”.
MIDDLE AGE IN A NUTSHELL • “Wait … what did I come in here for?” • “I could’ve sworn that was my password!” • “Sorry, I forgot what I was going to say.” • “Why is the print on these instructions so tiny!??” • “Who cares if it looks good? I’m comfortable!” • “Has anyone seen my phone?” • “Stupid scale! That cannot be right!” • “Huh, I wonder how I got this bruise?” • “Shoot, did I already take my vitamin?” • “$5 for a box of cereal? They raised the price and shrunk the box! What a rip off!” • “Software update again? I don’t like updates.” • “Who in the world is calling me at 9:30 p.m.?”
