Well, since you all were so kind to provide me with options, I'm contemplating.
Since something close to the truth is too scary for me right now, I'm going with Hud's answer! It just provides me with enough humor to get through the day until I find out what he wanted to discuss with me....
Now, what dresses should I pick out for him? Or should I send him to Foley's to the Chinese lady?

I'm going to have to do any boinking without the Tennent's.... now that I have my sights set on some good progress on the scale, Triple J has offered to carry my load for me. (Isn't he swell? Sort of Ireland's answer to Simon of Cyrene--helping me carry this cross and all )
I'm afraid that Hud's answer is probably not the truth. Mr. W's mom used to make him dress up as a girl on Halloween when he was young, and he still shudders at the mere thought. Guess she figured she'd get a girl somehow?
OMG, better keep this a secret or he's going to clobber me like Moe! And since he's actually Curly Joe, he can't hit me--I get to hit him first!
Maybe he wants to ask me to go bowling?

Hiya, Betsey - I am just poking my head out of my rabbit hole to check on my favorite stooge/shark/seal/etc. I happen to think that today's ocean journaling is a little exciting - it sounds like he is thinking, and whatever he is thinking about is difficult to say. I do NOT think it smells of the big D, if that's what's scary for you.
I really hope it's not a sex change - what would he call himself? Freida? What's the Chinese lady's name? Maybe he'll want to honor her....OR, you could BOTH be Betsey! No eye poking, please! Hugs, Myrrh

One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life.
One final post before I close shop for the night! I don't know if I'll be on tomorrow, as things look a little crazy around my place.
After my last perplexing convo with Mr. Wonderful, I have an equally perplexing behavior with which I can match it.
A few minutes before the end of my work day, he showed up at my office to get D10... and promptly hit the head (sorry, worked in the military industrial complex too long to change). I asked D10 where her dad was and she told me, so we started walking toward that side of the building--I had to give him some golf papers he needed.
I was more than a few steps ahead of D10 as I turned the corner... just in time to catch Mr. W. walking toward me. He was smiling from ear to ear (WTF? Bob in person?) and started waving at me???? As in, he looked really excited to see me?!?!
I was feeling a little like Molly Ringwald at the end of Pretty in Pink--pretty disbelieving he was staring at me and maybe a little bit annoyed--but I don't have anybody that resembles Ducky...
I turned around to see if he was waving at D10, but she was talking to my colleague and facing the other direction...
I gave him the golf papers... and Bob was present in full force:
MW: Enthusiastically. "OH, good! I'll add this to my notebook, which is increasing rapidly!"
Me: Couldn't seem to muster Bob... thrown off track by Bob greeting me. "Uh, okay. I wrote the deposit check and mailed it off today."
MW: "Terrific! Thanks so much!"
Me: "Uh, okay. Well, I'm going to close up shop and get out of here."
MW: Smiling broadly... actually, beaming. "See you later!" Giving me a Terrell Davis wave.....
Holy moses what is he doing? These beaming smiles and frantic waves? What a complete enigma? From depressed, MLC man to a real live Bob Barker? In particular, a Bob Barker who keeps reappearing?
Where did the sullen Curly Joe go? I've been way too accustomed to dealing with that guy...

Yea, I have seen Bob a few times in my H also! I also thought "WTF"! LOL. When they are in MLC expect anything from one end to the other!
I don't know if the "old H" pops out (bob) or what it is. As I am waiting to hear how if the dismissal goes through; H has been very helpful, friendly, blows the horn and waves. I don't know if this is good or bad, LOL. I guess we never know!
All I have to say is when you see your H in that mood; enjoy and DB your butt off. It is the perfect opportunity to give it your all! I've made use of this technique often in the last 6 months!
