Totally sincere conversation between me and my husband

September 11, 2007

in conversations

Victor:  “I don’t know why you don’t wear things that show off your boobs more.” 

Me:  “My what?”

 

“Like that little brown dress.  Your boobs look great in that.” 

 

“You know what would be really refreshing?  If you occasionally directed your attention to me rather than my boobs.” 

 

“But baby, you are a part of these boobs.” 

 

“Um…no.  These boobs are a part of me.” 

 

“Isn’t that what I said?” 

 

“You know, it’s things like ‘You’re a nice bonus to those big jugs I married’ that really do wonders for my self-esteem.” 

 

“You’re in charge of your own self-esteem.  I can’t do anything to hurt it.” 

 

“Are you high?  Of course you can.” 

 

“Well…I guess that’s just your stupid perception.” 

 

“I’m blogging all of this.”

Did Victor really say ‘You’re a nice bonus to those big jugs I married’?

I just want to know who to give credit to for my tee-shirt.

2 PunditMom September 11, 2007 at 8:05 pm

I sense a boob boycott approaching in your household.

3 hello insomnia September 11, 2007 at 8:25 pm

Sometimes I have to wear a bra on my head if I want to have a face-to-face conversation with my husband.

4 Nicole P. September 11, 2007 at 8:29 pm

Shove his moobs (yes, moobs – not a typo, people) into a too-tight push-up bra and see how he likes it. Wait, he might like that. Abort mission!!

Or take photos for blackmail.

5 Julie Pippert September 11, 2007 at 8:51 pm

Take that boy downtown, Judge Brown.

Using My Words

6 Jen from Boston September 11, 2007 at 9:03 pm

The brown dress you wore to Blogher? Cuz he’s right, you know. ha. don’t kill me.

My kingdom to have my guy notice me for my boobs. Can’t a girl get oggled in her own damn house anymore? jesus. (tho maybe it would be helpful if I had a rack).

7 Melanie September 11, 2007 at 9:18 pm

Ha! I feel your pain. I, too, am an optional attachment for the boobs.

8 LawyerMama September 11, 2007 at 10:23 pm

You do have quite a rack, Jenny. But still. Oy. Are you married to my husband’s long lost brother?

9 daysgoby September 11, 2007 at 10:30 pm

Aw, honey, step on his toes a few times.

Guarantee that’ll get his eyes off the boobages.

10 Willowtree September 11, 2007 at 11:03 pm

So nice to come across a guy who is not only sensitive but honest, reminds me a bit of me. Way to go Victor!

Oh btw, you may not be getting any for a while.

11 Kyla September 11, 2007 at 11:09 pm

Yeah. We have that one, too, more or less. And your boobs are way more impressive than mine. LOL.

12 Erica September 11, 2007 at 11:17 pm

ha, ha…. Ah the curse (or blessing depending on who you are) of a nice rack.

13 kittenpie September 11, 2007 at 11:28 pm

Since he must also be in charge of his self-esteem, I guess it wouldn’t hurt his feelings at all if you were to, say, divorce him from his equipment? Or better yet, cast aspersions upon it? Sheesh. Still, it’s nice to know you’ve got it going on, though, isn’t it?
;^)

14 Karmyn R September 12, 2007 at 12:23 am

and sadly – I think he’s not alone in his thinking.l

15 Shades September 12, 2007 at 12:52 am

Men.

Paint his toenails while he’s asleep and then track how many weeks it takes him to notice… you know, since his eyes don’t reach that far…

- a nice, bright, girly color ;)

16 Jenny the bloggess September 12, 2007 at 1:30 am

Clearly even in the comments the battle lines are drawn straight across gender lines. Except perhaps for Karmyn who I think is telling me that she finds my boobs distracting as well.

(Right back atcha, Big K.)

17 Biddy September 12, 2007 at 1:52 am

*snort* what a romantic…

18 Margaret September 12, 2007 at 1:53 am

I so didn’t notice your boobs when we were all at lunch at Molina’s. FOr our next get together, I fear I will be staring your your boobs.

I apologize in advance.

19 Phoenix September 12, 2007 at 3:45 am

Just smack him.

20 Lady M September 12, 2007 at 6:40 am

So, totally blogging this.

On the other hand, you know what to do to get your way in all things. ;)

21 Stephanie September 12, 2007 at 12:27 pm

That conversation could have totally taken place between Matthew and me.

Wait…Yeah, it has.

22 Sayre September 12, 2007 at 12:27 pm

Some days I think my husband married my nose. Yes, he’s a nose guy.

23 Erica September 12, 2007 at 12:38 pm

*giggle* re: to Margaret…. I was thinking the same thing. And, I too apologize in advance. (just in case)

24 Nikki September 12, 2007 at 3:15 pm

What is it with men and boobs?!?! I can’t walk by the hubby without being groped. It’s like his hands are possessed.

Tell Victor his winkie is small and then ask him if you hurt his self esteem. He might get it then.

25 Mommy off the Record September 12, 2007 at 3:54 pm

LOL. Well, at least you got a little blog revenge.

26 dodo September 12, 2007 at 4:35 pm

why don’t you wear the brown dress any more? (hope you’re feeling better)

27 Gina September 12, 2007 at 5:57 pm

My husband once said, “I love you. You have a great rack.”

And even though technically they were two different setences, he still got smacked.

Jenny, all I can say is that I hope you feel better soon and that you can be up and around. Hugs.

28 wordgirl September 12, 2007 at 6:18 pm

Lucky for me my personality is better than my boobs.

29 Malin September 12, 2007 at 6:37 pm

Hehe I bet Wictor won’t get any for a while :P

30 corky September 12, 2007 at 7:16 pm

Have I ever told you how much I like boobs Jenny. Wait a minute… I’ve never even said hello to you before. HI Jenny. ;)

31 Pamela September 12, 2007 at 8:50 pm

stupid perception… ummmm…
I’d be throwin a pillow out on the couch about then.

32 Marques Lyons September 12, 2007 at 11:14 pm

You know, us men CAN be that retarded :) and not really think about what we’re saying when we say it. But think about it, men are always a 6-pack away from just grunting and using two word sentences like “remote now!” and “throw that!” or “nice ass” or “beer me!”

But I’m a guy…I’m probably giving out too much :)

33 Just A. Reader September 13, 2007 at 2:01 am

You know how sometimes words just can’t fully express a concept? This blog post just cries for a photo.

34 mickey glascow September 13, 2007 at 2:04 am

gotta like boobs a alot. as for me, i wish i felt MORE like my little general was a part of me. as it is I don’t think we can share consciousness at the same time. I’m sound asleep and he is raring to go. wake up and he goes to sleep. go figure.

35 Lotta September 13, 2007 at 2:43 am

You do have nice boobs. I say that you flash and deny for payback.

36 Ed T. September 13, 2007 at 1:32 pm

@Willowtree, Malin – the Blogess has admitted she is afflicted with mono AND parvo – which means that *not getting some for awhile* might not be such a bad idea for Victor after all.

@Jenny – you need to get him some of them thar “Funbags” you done did wrote about, and give them to him wrapped up in that brown dress ;-)

~EdT.

37 Ed T. September 13, 2007 at 1:33 pm

Jenny – you might also remind him of his prophetic words:

“That poo-poo is so not going to have a nice day.”

~EdT.

38 3carnations September 13, 2007 at 3:26 pm

The picture’s a little blurry…Is that a purple bird in your hair?

Just kidding…very pretty flower. :)

39 Kyla September 13, 2007 at 4:06 pm

Arg! We were all such hot pirates.

40 lildb September 13, 2007 at 4:38 pm

Victor has some trouble keeping his thoughts from spilling out before he’s formed them properly, methinks.

(is he adhd too? because I have the same problem. also, your boobs are awesome.)

*rests case*

41 motherbumper September 13, 2007 at 5:31 pm

Sometimes I think the only reason SB married me was so he could have a better chance at touching boobs everyday.

42 Momish September 13, 2007 at 5:33 pm

My husband and Victor would get along rather nicesly.

Love that dress!

43 Chase September 13, 2007 at 7:21 pm

Parvo suits you well. Nice knockers.

44 Houston September 13, 2007 at 7:51 pm

OK, the quote,

‘You’re a nice bonus to those big jugs I married’ is priceless.

I agree, T-Shirts would be awesome (tight ones, made of white cotton… but I digress).

Look on the bright side. Obviously you have quite a bit to offer besides your amazing pectoral superstructure, otherwise the quote would have been more like,

‘Those big jugs of yours sure offset that noise which come from above them’

Now THAT would get him killed!

45 Spamboy September 14, 2007 at 2:03 am

Slut.

46 Biddy September 14, 2007 at 3:01 am

i bet mine are bigger…

47 Ed T. September 14, 2007 at 9:44 am

I got just the solution for this problem:

http://blog.etee2k.net/index.php/etee/2007/09/14/ed_action_moment_14_sep_07

That’ll fix Victor’s little red wagon… ;-)

~EdT.

48 kim September 14, 2007 at 11:27 am

after 20yrs talk is cheap, I’m just glad he notices.

Nice rack by the way.

49 Phoenix September 14, 2007 at 4:29 pm

Hey Jenny, you are right, my thumbs don’t have Parvo. But I am sick now. You didn’t by chance breath when you stopped by, did you?

50 Biddy September 14, 2007 at 8:12 pm

p.s. this week’s thursday 13 on my blog is dedicated to you and only you

51 slouching mom September 14, 2007 at 8:36 pm

Snort.

Well, it is a cute dress.

But…men. Sheesh.

52 Robinella September 14, 2007 at 9:21 pm

That’s when you reply, “why don’t you wear things that show off your penis more?”

On second thought, nevermind.

My husband always says that if he had my boobs, he would feel himself up everyday!

Hopeless!!

53 Carrie September 14, 2007 at 10:16 pm

I think Victor and my husband are related.

54 Marques Lyons September 14, 2007 at 11:13 pm

Why are all of the arrows aiming at the chest. Especially on a post like this?

55 Jenny the bloggess September 14, 2007 at 11:40 pm

Marques – Those arrows point to my boobs in real life. It’s part of the dress. Do you think that’s the reason why Victor’s so distracted by them?

56 Robin September 15, 2007 at 8:10 pm

Hey, Jenny, I know what’ll put Victor in his place–

post a NAKED picture of your boobs! Just slap those big boys up there, digitize ‘em, and let the whole world take a look.

Y e a h…that’ll put him in his place!

(I promise not to look…).

57 Jen from Boston September 18, 2007 at 8:46 pm

Ah HA! I was right.

58 Jenn September 18, 2007 at 10:55 pm

Men! Sheesh!!
I will never understand the obsession!

59 Miss September 27, 2007 at 7:12 pm

My boyfriend lovingly refers to me as “big tits” and loves to comment when they look especially big on any given day. Ahhh… romance hasn’t died!!
