I had one whose "boyfriend" lived in Italy and she loudly complained they weren't "doing the deed" enough. There was also a time when we had a gift exchange at work and I got a crock pot and she said "You're going to need that now that you're engaged." It was extra hilarious b/c she'd just finished bragging about how she'd won some bogus business award for being a woman CEO. So hard in a man's world, but once you're engaged, you better suck it up and get to slow cooking, baby!Stephanie in Suburbiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10141782319969160150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1824745890000210678.post-38595201896148979252010-09-10T16:16:57.304-04:002010-09-10T16:16:57.304-04:00Been there done that and never want to do it again...Been there done that and never want to do it again...
