You're Riding Me Like The Kentucky Derby

At the advice of my mom, Drew and I have decided to join the blogging world!

While we were sitting on our couch this evening, I farted (I'll admit it-- I'm a woman and I fart) and sucked through my teeth to try and get a piece of food dislodged. Drew looked at me and said (with complete sarcasm), "You are so attractive." He went on to comment about the bowl of peanut shells on my lap and the Bud Light in my hand. As we both looked over at our dog, he (the dog) sat down and rubbed his butt along the carpet. Drew started to laugh and said, "I'm surprised that instead of snow, we don't see a car on blocks outside." I told him that he brought me into the country (I moved from the suburbs to a rural area when Drew and I became engaged) and what happens now is out of my control.

I started to laugh and told him that we should be sharing experiences like this with everyone else.

So, we began the process. After I attempted to sign up for a blog, Drew took control to look for a blog that we could both author. THAT was the easy part.

Coming up with a name for the blog took significantly longer than I thought was necessary. Instead of vocalizing his thoughts about a name, he just stared at the computer. Why do men do that?

I asked him what he was thinking so that I could help. He became frustrated with me. Why do men do that?

At some point, our ideas magically clicked and everything came together.

Then, came the description of the blog. For some reason, that was easier than the name... Oh, wait, I know why... I walked away to get another beer. Of course, that was after Drew told me that I was riding him like the Kentucky Derby.

We hope you enjoy our thoughts about life and marriage filled with ups, downs, humor, and wit.
