Things said after 19 years of marriage and not much left to say. While driving; "Careful, careful, Captain Safety, don't drive so fast." "Go, you pig f****er!", and two favorites, courtesy of my deceased father, "Sons a bitches!" and "Creeping Jesus!". I don't know what that last one really means, but that's what he would say.
Other nonsensical sayings pertaining to us would be: "Toe, Ally, Vole". What does THAT mean? You may well ask. The Mister lost his hearing a few years ago thanks to performing in bands and gunfire in Vietnam. He told me once (well, more than once), "I love you". I told him, "I love you, though." He thought I said, "I love your toe", which is a bit confusing, because I really don't love his toes, so why would I say that? Anyway, "Toe" is code for, "I love you". Oh, so very sweet.
Once, he said, "I love most about you", to which I replied, "I love almost all about you", which means, "Ally". Are you sick now? You should be.
Then, the topper. We watched a documentary about animals that mate for life. Must have been a very slow night. We found out that Voles mate for life. Hence, "Toe, Ally, Vole."
Now you know.
