DAMM CATSUP BOTTLE GOT ME!!

Ok, this has to be told for all to know.  The most lovely wife is a "greenie". She is into recycling, so whenever we use a can of veggies, milk bottle, containers of any sort, we have to wash them in the dishwasher so later down the line, someone can throw them into a crusher or melt them down to be made into who knows what. Anyway, I try to appease her, and mostly try to do her bidding, but once in awhile, when i'm in a hurry, i'll just throw the container in the trash, and cover it with other trash, so she won't notice the direful deed i had committed. ANYWY, a couple of weeks ago, in a hurry, i threw a plastic catsup bottle into the trash can and buried it so she would'nt find it. And it worked, I thought, until today, when she stated she was going to recycle some things. Then, she said it: I'm missing a catsup bottle!! I didn't hesitate,as I was caught. I silently laid my head on her shoulder in pretend shame and guilt, then burst out laughing, and I couldn't stop. She was missing a damm catsup bottle. We both laughed and I still laugh when I think of her digging thru the trash to see what i've thrown away. Oh, life is great!!  I can hardly wait for what is next.

I chuckled all afternoon too! Your face reflected the shock of me calling you out over a catsup bottle! BTW, I didn't dig thru the trash. I noticed we were using catsup out of a NEW bottle and new I hadn't see the old one cleaned up to recycle. Anyway, a funny moment in time.
