Trophies

I had the option today to pick up a "trophy wife." I had just arrived at the house of some friends when my cell phone rang. It was another friend of mine, who in respect for her, I shall not name. She said she had a great idea. She said that she wanted to get married. She said that she could do laundry like a mofo, she claimed great skills with a vacuum cleaner, and she claimed great skills of another... well.. sort.

I tried to explain to her that I was in the middle of this thing with Sarah, and I really couldn't get married; but she seemed to have given this a lot of thought. It just isn't the conversation you typically have. You don't typically get a phone call proposing marriage to a girl you've never dated.

Eventually things settled down, but in the end remember this: I could have a trophy wife right now, this very moment. One phone call and a couple of tickets to vegas. Anyways, it's been a wonderful week, and now I'm off to fishing with the manfolk up in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. I'll be off the grid for 3 days. I can't wait.
