Wild Hair

We were watching Natalie’s volleyball game today when Kara noticed that I had a wild eyebrow hair. She said, “It is totally curling down, is it bothering you?”

“Nope, I didn’t notice.”

(Eight minutes later)

“It is really crazy; when we get home I’ll pluck it for you. It really isn’t bugging you?”

”No, I can’t see it and I had even forgotten about it. No bother.”

(Three minutes later)

“OK, that hair is just freaking me out. I bet I can use my nail clippers to trim it right here. Are you sure it isn’t bugging you?”

“It’s starting to become a little annoying, yes.”

 

Thirty seconds after we got home, she was poised with the tweezers and I was reminded that there is a direct correlation between eyebrow hair girth and plucking pain. Yeeeooow! Kara was finally at peace. I was scrambling to find gauze and an ice pack.

classic funny. Stephen has the exact same hair and his wife has the exact same problem.

I can't believe it wasn't bugging you Dave, you should know better. If it bugs the wife, it bugs you.

I think that is a addendum to rule number one & two: 1. the wife is always right, 2. if wife is wrong refer to rule number one.
