Oblivion and Suddenness May 26, 2008

Posted by carpebanana in : Ramblings , trackback

Devastatingly Handsome is not, and never has been, an observant man. Although this leads to a bit of frustration when I do something like actually clean or decorate or rearrange furniture or take care about my outfit, that is more than offset by the plus-side: I do not have to worry about him having a “wandering eye” in regards to other women. His eye is caught by things like news of the stock market or a new brick-work pattern so I have few concerns.

However, it did seem a bit much after church yesterday. We were chatting with friends when DH looked at me, stared at my eyelids, and mumbled, “… you have… something…”

I went to check and it was my make-up. Apparently he has not previously noticed it and thought “something” happened.

~ sigh ~

Glad he noticed.

And on a different note, this photo at engrish.com caught my eye.

I do not like surprises. I like to know what to expect. The only sort of surprise I like is when something turns out to be better than I expected, or less trouble than I feared, but I don’t really like a change in what sort of thing I expected. So now I know why I caution the Bananalets to stay away from the rail. Suddenness may happen.
