Bite your Tongue




I bet Jim (o.k. I forgot his real name) would never say this to his wife when he gets home from work and she has been stuck inside all day with her three kids because it's another snow day:
"Paige didn't practice her piano yet?" (Implied meaning: what the heck have you been doing all day?)
"Ummm, no."
"You know, I would really like to come home and just have fun with the kids, not practice piano or help them with their homework." (Yeah, sorry honey. I guess moms have all the FUN!)
I'm happy to report that I bit my tongue. Now if I didn't just blog about it, I'd really be a saint! :)

LOL!!!!!!!!!! First off, JIM, I love you and want to crawl into that sweater with you. When oh when will this stupid strike be over??
Second, glad I'm not the only one who gets the implied "what did you do all day" question(s) as soon as said husband walks in the door. LOL! You kill me.

Jim would never say that because, in that outfit, he looks like he'd be coming home to a domestic partner, versus a wife...hence, more than likely, no kids. Oops! Was I just politically incorrect? Censor me if you must...

Oh my dear sweet neighbor Patti - Jim is on "The Office" and is the love interest of Pam and is just so sweet you want to squeeze him!

AHHHHHH, I was thinking it could be Jim from The Office but I didn't recognize him in hip casual clothes!

I must get a subscription to People. I had no idea he was one of the Sexiest Men Alive!
