My new vacuum cleaner:
Since when are vacuum cleaners turquoise? |
A gift from my husband today |
Phone rings:
Skippy: "Hello?"
Pooldad's coworker: "Hey Skip, it's Linda. How's it going?"
Skippy: "Great. What's up?"
Linda: "Uh. We're taking bets at the office today. And, um...we were just wondering."
Skippy: "Yes....?."
Linda: "You weren't awake when your husband left for work this morning, were you?"
Skippy: "No, I wasn't......um, how did you know?"
Linda: "Well, do you know what Pooldad is wearing today?"
Skippy: ::headdesk:: "No, now what?"
Linda: "Khaki shorts with thin blue strips and a purple work shirt with a green logo. Oh, and gray socks."
silence.........
Skippy: ::sigh:: "Uh...y'all.have fun with that. Oh...and you are welcome."
Linda: ::laughing:: "For what?"
Skippy: "Twelve hours of visual stimulation and entertainment."
Linda: "Skippy?"
Skippy: "Yeah?"
Linda: "For godsake's woman set your alarm tomorrow."
*Pooldad thought both the vacuum and the elephant were grayish in color.

My vacuum is purple and green. And I think the one before was red.
Pool dad has his own unique style and I think the elephant is super cute
Hi Skippy! I think I've seen vacuum cleaners in all sorts of colours. Love that little elephant - so cute, and how sweet of Pooldad. See, you've got a little gem there. Never mind his fashion mistakes!!! Hee Hee! At least it gave his co=workers something to smile about!
my vacuum is an ugle gray
lol! Poor pooldad. But if it makes him feel any better, I dress like that on purpose. And so he doesn't feel left out, today I will dress to match rental bowling shoes (one of my favorite color schemes)
When I once again live in a sticks and bricks, I am going to have a metallic RED washer and dryer. And a turquoise vacuum cleaner.
I probably won't have an elephant though.
word vert: humshann. More power to Pooldad for having the humshann (say it fast with emphasis on hum) to wear that particular outfit.
well, I was going to say that they were both my mother's favorite colors but I'm stretching it a bit as her actual favorite colors were lime green and orange...together.
funny story.
THAT kind of entertainment is very endearing...HAHHAHHA HEE HEE GIGGLE GIGGLE!
I do feel sorry for him. He can't help it if he is color blind.
Ah yes, the color blind are highly entertaining. My dad could not perceive red and green. If my mom was not around, his attire could be outrageous.
My brother was color blind...he was very entertaining at times with his color choices but he never meant to be entertaining. As to the color of vaccum and elephant, well this is not horseshoes so........close but no cigar. TOB
I always lay out He Who's clothes. Not only does he put wrong colors together, he will put a long sleeved shirt on with what my grandson, Gavin, calls short sleeved pants.
I have a vacuum that is turquoise AND purple ;)
This one is just too hysterical for words. Poor Pooldad.
you rock my world!
this was just a perfect example of the weird stuff that happens when guys grow outta granimals!
My boyfriend (whom I live with) is also colorblind. Oh boy can I relate, especially to the clothes...
Apparently my grandpa was colorblind to blue and green but he learned to tell the difference somehow because they would be different shades of grey. LOL
