Logic & Sense

photo-20160411045742372

“Honey, I believe it’s illogical that you keep on wearing these pointy heels and then endlessly complain about them. It doesn’t make sense.” Howard grumbled as he bent down to strap his wife’s high heels.

He loves her dearly but sometimes his Lisa could be too… clamorous. She looked stunning tonight. Her curly hair tossed gracefully just above her shoulder, her eyebrows arched and delicate, her legs flared gradually along her metallic dress. But what he hated were her heels. His ears were deaf from her complains.

“Sense?” Lisa barked, looking down at Howard. “Would barefoot be much better? It’s a party we’re going to. It’s a jungle out there. We, ladies, need to be equipped. And this— my edgy husband— is how we flaunt our splendor.”

“Honey,” he muttered, folding his arms across his chest, “From a logical perspective, you are teeming with splendor with or without these heels.”

Lisa smiled slyly and gave a kiss, “And from a logical perspective, we’re going to be late if you don’t get those straps done, Mister.”

Anything but that…

A marriage doesn’t just drop from “’til death do us part” to “we’re getting divorce” in an instant. Carol and Lyle have been through the ups and downs, tried to fix things up but failed, until they decided that it’s best to end it.

Today, they’re sorting out what goes to whom. Carol, in her alpha mode, got to pick hers first. Of course, Lyle thought. He let her take the sala set, appliances, and cutleries. It was when she mentioned “garage”, that he shoot out the door and hurriedly haul their classic Model-T Ford into a flatbed trailer.

“Sorry, Hon! You can have the house but not this one.”
