With laughter that is
DH went and got acupuncture for his ankle 2 nights ago, and got given some Chinese medicine to help with the swelling or something. It was a big brown ball, kind of grape sized, maybe a bit bigger and smells horrible. He got told to chop it up and take 1/4 each day for 4 days. Well today he decided he was going to be a man and take 1/2. I said he should at least chop it into smaller pieces so it would go down. He decided I was just being a girl about it.
I was watching him, and he swallowed it down, and immediately gagged it up, and sputtered and squealed and groaned about how gross it was. I don't know why the sight of my husband gagging was funny, but I was almost wetting myself with laughter (maybe it's because I was right
).
So he tried again, but cut it in half, and I said he should cut the bits in half again to make them smaller so they go down easier. Sure enough, he ignored me (maybe because I was still laughing at him). He got the first bit down, and gagged up the second one again which had me literally rolling on the ground with laughter.
Oh the things that amuse you when you're married.
