Today i got Brooks to go through the rest of his boxes and the massive pile of crap that was on our recliner. In the process he found some interesting things. I felt like i needed to be in the garage side of the basement with him, for you know..."moral" support. In truth i was the one who was tossing things into the appropriate boxes or trash can for him since he was stuck in the closet behind the recliner. Haha!
Upon digging through a big massive tote he had full of random items, he handed me some shirts to choose which ones he kept and which ones needed to be tossed. I don't like doing that or being THAT girl, but it's what he wanted. It was like pulling teeth on a stray feral cat to get him to tell me which ones he actually wanted to keep, but we got it done.
One of the items in said tote was an old black leather jacket. It was padded, almost quilted in places, had some sort of buckle type thing on it, (clearly an old biker jacket) and as he handed it to me to put into the box of stuff to keep, he says, "That's a good coat! Glad i found that! It's old!!" I took one look at it and realized it looked quite a bit like the leather jacket Michael Jackson wore in the 'Bad' video. And this is where my story begins....
Me: Oh, so the 80's are back?
Him: NO! It's a good coat!! It's old! I loved that thing!! I'm keeping it!
Me: Oh, ok...... So do you have the single white sparkly glove in there too?
Him: Stop it!!
Me: When will the rest of your posse arrive? Should i expect them for dinner?
Him: Hey! (then proceeded throwing socks at me)
Me: Where are all the silver buckles and stuff at? Did they fall off?
Him: Woman! (threw more socks)
A few minutes later he pulls out a really cool knife that looks like an old pistol in a holster, complete with chain and shows it to me.
Me: OH!! Look!! You found your chains!! Ok, so when will the remake of the 'Bad' video be taking place? Should i call around to find a location we can rent?
Him: Really woman? You're gonna mess with me while I'm holding a knife?
Me: Well...I have a valid question. Do you have the boots and leggings to go with the jacket, or are we gonna have to go shopping?
Him: That's it! (begins looking for more stuff to throw) Crap! I'm out of socks to throw at you! (throws a hat instead)
Me: (singing) Who's baaaad?
At least he's got a good sense of humor about stuff!!
