because he loves me THAT much
Last weekend we were at a friends house having dinner when the topic of love languages came up. Mine, according to Sarah, is nurturing. But none of us could figure out what Jim’s is. I remained unconvinced that Jim HAS a love language, but he determined that his love language is giving people a hard time. Relentlessly.
That is why what happened Wednesday should have come as no surprise to me:
During lunch, Jim walked over to the local barber to get a much needed hair cut. I was in the bathroom doing my hair when he got home. As he walked in, he was trying to keep a mischievous grin off his face, but that’s not terribly unusual so I didn’t think much of it. He was looking at me straight on and I commented on how happy I was that he cut his hair. That was until he walked away.
I did a double take and realized that he had told the barber to give him a MULLET. On purpose. FOR the purpose of annoying me. Isn’t he SO special?

Not that I’m taking up for Jim or anything (as a matter of fact – I may have to remove him from my rss feeds due to the mullettness) – but the mullet has made a mini come back here and in NYC punk-ish circles.
So very very sad.

This post made me guffaw. I also have an ornery husband, so I can relate. Good luck!!

Did you cut it off in his sleep? I would have. It’s also what I threaten my husband with if he ever decides on a handlebar moustache.

At least it’s a short mullet. It could be down to his shoulders. What a funny man your hubby is.

I have been musing on Jim’s love language. I think he has two: 1) words of affirmation and 2) Acts of service. I propose that his music is where he gives and receives words of affirmation (consider his early songwriting with SMA). As for Acts of Service; he receives your wonderful menu planning – especially spagetti; and he considers giving folks a hard time as his act of service.
