Ok...so the truth is out. My dear, wonderful hubbie officially thinks I am an idiot. Why, you wonder? So glad you asked...........
(Hubby painting barn...Hubby out of paint...hubby calling FarmGirl)
Me: Hello
Him: I'm outta paint
Me: Okayyyyyyyyyy, do you want me to get some?
Him: Ya, I need three 5 gallon buckets...barn and fence paint.
Me: Ok, I'll stop at Tractor Supply
Him: It needs to be barn and fence paint
(No shit sherlock, you are painting a barn, right? DUH)
Me: Ya, I remember...I picked it up last time
Him: I need THREE... (I imagine him holding up 3 fingers)
Me: Got it
Him: Barn and fence paint...the red label
Me: Ok
Him: Call me when you get there...it's the red label
(Shut the hell up! I get it!!)
Me: Got it
Him: Don't forget to call
Me: Ok (jerk)
So I go in the store, to get the freakin' paint....
(Phone rings)
Him: Did you get it? You didn't call
(I just got off the phone with you, moron!)
Me: The guy is getting it from the back.
Him: I need THREE, ok? (Using his high pitch kid voice)
Me: I KNOWWWWWWWWWW
Him: You're getting the Barn & Fence paint, right?
Me: Yes
Him: The white?
Me: Yes
Him: The guy is getting the red label, right?
Me: Yes
Him: ok, see ya in a bit
I get the paint loaded, am heading home.....
(Phone rings, *sigh*)
Me: hello
Him: So did you get it?
Me: yes
Him: The barn fence paint, right?
Me: yes
Him: The red label, you got the red label right?
Me: yes... (I am starting to feel ornery now)
Me: Ya, I got five, 3 gallons.
LONG PAUSE
Him: What?
(oh this is too fun!! Too easy!!)
Me: Ya, I got five, just like you told me.
Him: I didn't say five. Did you really get FIVE?
Me: Yes you said FIVE, 1-2-3-4-5
(hee hee...they don't make it in 3 gallons)
Him: (almost yelling) YOU GOT FIVE??? How much money did you spend?
Me: a little over $400
(I am seriously trying not to giggle....he is wiggin' out)
Him: Ok....ok.....well, we can take it back. You have the reciept, right?
(Do I look that ignorant!! Give me a freakin' break!)
Me: No...I told her I didn't need the reciept....sorry
Him: YOU.HAVE.GOT.TO.BE.KIDDING.ME.FARMGIRL!!!!!!!!!
(ok, I am crying---I am laughing way to hard)
Me: Hey, I got another call, I'll see you in about 20 minutes...bye
So, he's calling back, freakin' out! I mean seriously, I am an educated woman! But I don't answer the phone. I pull in the driveway, and here he comes! OMG...I swear I could hear his footsteps in the grass...he looked like a big ole Sasquatch! I ran in the house, cuz I am laughing so hard!! I watch from the window as he opens the back hatch...then he looks to the house, back to the THREE buckets of FIVE gallon paint!
Who's an idiot now, MISTER!!!
(Ahh....that would be my loving hubbie....he is so much fun to mess with!!)

Ok, this is the kind of stuff my hubby does to me. Nothing bothers him but it's quite the opposite for me. HE LOVES DOING WHAT YOU JUST DID! I always ask him what is so fun about making me freak out. He just laughs and says, "Nobody's forcing you to freak out. That's your choice." I NEED TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET HIM BACK!!! I'm smiling by the way.
omg this is 2 funny! I laughed so hard....
It was a classic, that is for SURE!! It was yet another very proud moment in my life!! THanks guys for sharing in my fun (at Hubby's expense!!) lol
Ooh, I love it! You're rotten, just rotten! I couldn't have kept the joke going that long, I usually laugh and give it away.
That was funny! I'm the gullable one in my family, but proud to be. Thanks for the comments and words of encouragement.
Ahhh, FarmGirl, you've really got a sense of humor! I love it. "Don't question my intellegence, you idiot!" hilarious! Thanks for the laugh this evening! I needed that!

Classic FarmGirl!!! You Rock. I can see him now! Was there a bare spot in the yard from him pacing back and forth waiting for you????
Love You!!!!
Auntie P
Fee! Fi! Fo! Fum!
Or, that's how I envisioned him from your most awesome story, stomping through the yard at ya!
You're a HOOT!
HA!
That's the kind of sweet revenge I always wish that I could pull off. ;)
Great things happen to those who wait!!! Tell him to just remember that! You should have bought RED paint - sounds like you knew exactly what you were doing and how WRONG it was - so funny. Thanks for the laugh this morning! Pacey would have loved the red fence - or just about anything that was not GREEN - from his JD friend
Men! You just gotta love them! I think there's that male genetic defect that makes them think and act that way! He he he You are one funny lady! Hail to ya Sitstah!
