His and Hers: The big blowoff

His and Hers is a weekly discussion of a question or topic relating to marriage. On Friday, my wife and I each write our thoughts on the week’s topic. I invite others to do the same with their spouses as an exercise in celebrating marriage.

Before you were married, what is the lamest excuse someone gave you for not going on a date with you?

Mrs. Happy’s response

"I have to work on my bird house."

Curt’s response

"I’m sorry, but I’m walking home this weekend." (This was at a college in northern Indiana, and the girl’s home was in Ann Arbor, Michigan."

    Hands down would have to be a girl wrinkling her nose like a little kid who’d been forced to taste broccoli, and vigorously shaking her head from side to side like she’d just been propositioned by a shambling mass of sentient garbage. That was back in college. Ah good old Broccolliface. I probably shouldn’t look her up….
