[Nobbc] Humor!

I know we're not big on banter on this list, but here's something to 
start out the New Year with; this through my Dad, from Lyle Waggoner, 
who was on the Carol Burnett show (my dad was a cameraman and later the 
technical director for the show). I've modified it very slightly at the 
end...

HER DIARY ~
Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird.
We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink. I was
shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was
upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no
comment on it.
Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go
somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he
didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong; he said,
'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault that he
was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing
to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I
told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept
driving. I can't explain his behavior. I don't know
why he didn't say, 'I love you, too.'When we
got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he
wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there
quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and
absent.
Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to
bed.. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. To my
surprise, he responded to my caress, and we made love. But I
still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were
somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don't know
what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with
someone else.. My life is a disaster.

 
HIS DIARY:
Lotus wouldn't start today, but at least I got laid.
