My wife is not a heavy drinker. She has been drunk-and-stupid-wasted only three times since I have known her...And just so you know it was not the night that I proposed to her...she was sober that night...
I, on the other hand, am no stranger to the porcelain bus...as frequent readers know, I have been OverServed on a few or so occasions... My wife is a very responsible drinker. And as much as I give her crap about it , I truly respect that among many other traits my wife exhibits. I really do not tell her enough what a good person she is. (note to self: tell her in person )
Before she gets drunk, but not drunk-and-stupid-wasted she has the SockPuppet phase. When the SockPuppets come out we know she is HappyBuzzed. I am not sure if she takes her socks off her feet to use as sock puppets, but the socks come from somewhere. I know my wife keeps an odd hodge-podge in her purse, which is a bag that is usually toooo large to be a carry-on for flying, and she could keep them in there. Sometimes, although I have not documented this well at all, the SockPuppets drop some pearls...
They may just appear, ghost-like as well. There are some strange goings on in the world, and the SockPuppets could make the jump from the SockPuppet Dimension, or what I believe to be the 8th dimmension, for those of you that are ScienceMinded, which BTW is the dimension that is somewhere between this world and the alternate reality where I am King Of the World...
It is usually a good warning sign, for me to stop drinking and SoberUpPeople when I see the SockPuppets, if we are out at a party or some such social occasion away from the WereBloggerCastle. I should heed the sign...I usually do not...Jus' Sayin'...
The SockPuppets usually converse between themselves. Sometimes they talk to the group. Most times they just prattle on about nonsense. The trouble with nonsense, not unlike this blog, is there are often times pearls of wisdom in what is said. And funny stuff as well. But mostly a bunch of sillly things that their alter-ego, Roxy would not say if she were stone -cold -sober. She is reserved and polite in most social gatherings. Almost too polite, but consider the source of this opinion.
I am usually not reserved and say the wrong thing at the wrong time. I found out recently that a friend is REALLY pissed at me, but I do not have ANY clue as to why...NONE...but I must have said something...at this point if you cannot tell me, then who-the-f-cares... I am usually not the one to drive us home, as I am not as composed and responsible about sober driving.
However, since the VoHo accident (http://www.bruceejohnsonjadip.blogspot.voho-can-you-hear-me.html/) I have been much more cognizant of the need to drive sober...However, cognizant does not translate to actionable as easy as one would think...
My wife has plenty of reasons to be angry with me. I have made some REALLY stupid decisions in my life. Some of them could have resulted in a knife in my chest while I was sleeping...Factually, that would prolly also cure that snoring issue. I think snoring has something to do with breathing, but since I burned all my physiology notes about three lifetimes ago, I have no way to check this for sure...
We can all find the bad in people. People are irritating... It is much easier to spot than the good. I struggle to find the good in some people. We all do. HOWEVER, irritation is what creates a pearl, a thing of beauty, in an oyster, so it can't be all that bad.
Recently my wife said, "Sometimes you are just a vague memory in the background of my life" I guess I could be offended, but one of the things I love about her is her brutal honesty...We sometimes forget that the others in our life have their own agendas. Our society is very egocentric. I blame the MeGeneration...
She has said some pretty funny things thru her SockPuppets, but I am remiss as to what they are. I now keep a notepad handy to write down funny stuff, odd stuff and fractured reality stuff to use as fodder for Bloggering...Well, I try to...
Last night the SockPuppets came out, but they were naked sock puppets. Somewhere between the dimensions they left the socks behind...In my Mind, I scrambled for a note pad, mebbe. No, not so much. The WINGS had Just won on a Datsyukian Goal with 11.4 seconds left in regulation. I was as bit OverServed, and even if I could have written the pithy things that the SockPuppets said, it would prolly not be legible...I do love my wife. I know she can be irritating. As can we all...I never find the SockPuppets irritating...I look forward to their arrival even if they are a rarity. We should all relish the pearls, and look past the irritants...
