1/6/13 - Already out of the running for Wife/Mother of the Year

[LisaR]

Poor DH. I don't know why he puts up with me.

Conversation:
Me: What did you do to your hand? It looks like you have a little blood blister.

DH: That's a birthmark. I've had it since.......um......BIRTH!

Me: No way! I've never noticed it before. OMG! How can you have a birthmark in such a noticeable spot and I've never noticed?

DH: I think you've seen it before. I remember talking about it.

Me: Hmmm......I'm not sure which is worse; not knowing that you have a birthmark at all or talking about it in the past and not remembering the conversation or the birthmark.

DH: Don't worry about it. It just gives me something to hold over your head.

Me: It bugs me. I can't believe I didn't know about it. We've been married for 24 years.......25 this May. This is something I should know about you.

DH: Um.....Honey, we've actually been married for 23 years, 24 this May.

Me: Damn! There goes my Wife of the Year award. I wonder if I am still in the running for Mother of the Year?

Both kids simultaneously: NOOOOOOOO!

I feel your pain. DH has a tattoo on his shoulder, I cannot every remember which shoulder and I just know I am going to be called on to identify his body and I will get it wrong!

If it makes you feel better, I have a rather large birthmark on the palm of my left hand. People who have known me for years will all of the sudden notice it and ask me if I burned my hand Even my sister saw it in a picture when we were adults and made a comment about it (she knew I had it but I guess just hadn't noticed it in a while).

I guess birthmarks on hands are not really noticeable.

At least you took the pressure off yourself early.

I love it! It should be smooth sailing from here on out without the pressure!
