The Shiz My Boyfriend Says, Volume XVII… and Farewell.

by rachaelgking on November 4, 2009 · 101 comments

It still hasn’t sunk in that tomorrow, yes, TOMORROW, I will be roaming the rainforest-y hillsides of Costa Rica with my lovah. You see that little post tag down on the right, the one that says “dear god how am I not still in Puerto Viejo“, and has FOURTEEN posts dedicated to it? Yeah, well… now I finally WILL be back on that gorgeous Caribbean beach… and I could not be any more stoked in the pants about it.

Don’t be too jealous. I’ll miss you guys, I swear. Just… a little less every time I sip something with a wee umbrella in it.

Now don’t fret- I do have a few posts scheduled to go up while I’m gone, especially the two next installments of the “Post Secret” TMI Thursdays. (Don’t know what Post Secret is? Click HERE to be amazed). Your submissions have been truly awesome… keep ‘em coming, too, and I’ll post them until we get every last one up for all to see. Send them to heylivitluvit at gmail dot com, and if you don’t want even me to know who you are, you can send it from the top secret email account I made just for this purpose…

Log in at Gmail with the username: tmithursday

Password: tmit1234

Okay then! I think we have time for one last “Shiz My Boyfriend Says” before I go, don’t you?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yesterday evening, he suddenly hops up off the couch…

B: Baby, I have a poop situation!

Me: By all means…

[He heads to bathroom, stops, comes back to the couch]

Me: What happened?

B: Forgot my beer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The other night, we were watching a DVD and left the player on while we went downstairs to do laundry. When we came back…

B: Why is the player off??

Me: It turns itself off after a while if it’s not playing.

B: Well that sucks!

Me: No, it’s good, actually. The player burns out faster if it’s left on all the time.

B: Listen, don’t you contradict me, woman!

Me: YOU taught me that!

B: Well definitely don’t contradict me with things I’ve taught you!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the bathroom…

Me: Baby, where’s the bathroom trash can?

B: I threw it away.

Me: … Um, why?

B: IT WAS INEFFICIENT!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 While watching the Office…

Me: Damn. Erin has a serious rack.

[They talk about Michael falling into the Koi Pond...]

B: Those are like $2000 bucks!

Me: Excuse me?!

B: What? [Blank stare] The koi fish!

Me: OH. I totally thought you meant her boobs.

B: No! [Ponders] Well, those are probably about $2000, too.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While watching Murray be his adorable dumb self…

B: Murray looks like a mongoose.

Me: He looks nothing like a mongoose.

B: Yes he does! He’s exactly the same. In fact, I replaced him with a mongoose a week ago and you didn’t even notice!! 

Me: … I can’t even argue with that logic. Good one, baby.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Farewell, my lovely blogdudes and blogettes. I’ll check in when I can! Don’t have too much fun without me…

UPDATE: I just found out that my BFF Maxie is going to be moving here to DC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so mad I won’t be here this weekend to celebrate, but Lexa has already been instructed to get you a shot of tequila on me. LOVE YOUR FACE! Congrats and Happy Happy Birthday, my darling wife!

Ha. This seems like exact convos I have with my husband. It’s like I have a child.

Exactly, except you bang them.

Wait, that came out wrong…

2 Badass Geek November 4, 2009 at 7:48 am

Cat… mongoose…

No, I don’t see it.

If you kinda squint…

3 Paula November 4, 2009 at 7:50 am

Most people take magazines.

B takes beer…

Awesome!

Truth be told… so do I. ;-)

4 Tara November 4, 2009 at 7:58 am

The first one definitely sounds like something my husband would do.

Have a fabulous time in Costa Rica!

I PROMISE I will!

5 justrun November 4, 2009 at 7:59 am

You guys are great.

Have an absolutely fabulous time, like I know you will, and bring me back some sand, please! My crevices just don’t feel right without it.

Hahaha. I’m sure I’ll bring back enough to share…

6 littlemsblogger November 4, 2009 at 8:04 am

Have a wonderful time — no bringing back monkeys for the cats to play with….if tempted, just remember the poor lady in CT with no face and realize that could be your cat.

Somehow I haven’t heard about this and I am afraid to Google…

7 Patty Duke November 4, 2009 at 2:33 pm

Please do not google that story if you are squeamish. Anytime I am reminded of it, I get creeped out.

8 Bird Shit November 4, 2009 at 8:05 am

You guys are awesome! Have fun in Costa Rica!

Woot! We will ;-)

9 Lee November 4, 2009 at 8:06 am

I love conversations!! Hilarious! Have an awesome time and think of me taking care of kids house dogs kids house dogs…..so jealous…

As much as I’m going to miss the kitties, it will be nice not to scoop their poop for a couple weeks.

10 Sassy Britches November 4, 2009 at 8:14 am

An inefficient bathroom trashcan? I’d LOVE to hear his logic on that one! Have the bestest time ever on your trip, and don’t come home with anything you can’t take shots for!

The cats kept getting into it, which I understand… but maybe we should have bought a new one BEFORE throwing the old one out? Just a thought…

11 f.B November 4, 2009 at 8:22 am

He’s right. You’re just not allowed to contradict with things he’s told you. That’s cheating. It’s using his own weapons against him.

You always take his side. Penises stick together, I sup-

TWSS!!!!!!!!!

12 Shannon November 4, 2009 at 8:37 am

Have a great time, I’m very jealous!

I never thought Erin had fake boobs? Doesn’t she have small boobs? Maybe I need to pay closer attention this week… that won’t make me a lesbian will it?

We were totes kidding about them being fake, but they ARE rather large for her… proportionately. Also, yes.

13 Yankee Girl November 4, 2009 at 8:51 am

My husband takes whisky to the bathroom….

That’s hardcore.

14 carissajaded November 4, 2009 at 8:54 am

I like to have a beer for poopie time as well.

Have a blast on your trip! You will be missed! (But also hated a little more for every sip you take on that umbrella topped drink. Yeah, I’m jealous.)

Good.

I mean, love you!

15 lemmonex November 4, 2009 at 8:58 am

I shall watch this blog like it is my own.

Have a wonderful time and drink some rum for me.

I know it is in good e-hands. Xo

16 bananas. November 4, 2009 at 9:04 am

HA! love the koi pond dialogue. hilarious!

I thought it was worthy, even though only a few will get it. ;-)

17 Cyndy November 4, 2009 at 9:09 am

Yaaay! Costa Rica! Have a wonderful time.

Woot! We surely will.

18 moooooog35 November 4, 2009 at 9:11 am

If I brought a beer in with me when I shit, I’d never leave the bathroom since beer makes me shit.

I’d probably end up creating a tear in the time-space continuum or – even worse – run out of TP.

It would be like a snake eating it’s own tail but instead of a snake it’s a turd and, honestly, I just made myself throw up a little by picturing myself eating it.

That image will circle in my mind while on the plane tomorrow…

So, thanks for that.

19 Skylers Dad November 4, 2009 at 9:15 am

My wife wonders how I can take things to eat and drink into the bathroom. I tell her I am multi-talented.

Drinking is one thing, but eating? I’m impressed. And a little nauseous.

20 shine November 4, 2009 at 9:15 am

Have fun in Costa Rica!

Beware the Mongoose.

I feel like that’s a saying from a childhood cartoon or something…

21 Dave "Loose Cannon" Wills November 4, 2009 at 9:26 am

These banters are truly hilarious. Love them!

Have fun in Costa Rica most definitely. Nothing beats being able to snorkel, hike, go to waterfalls, scuba dive, do horseback riding, surf, boogie board, go para sailing, lounging on the sand in a beach chair under a beach umbrella sipping on a margarita, mojito or any alcholic beverage, doing it with the ‘special one’!

Wow! I’m excited for you and I’m not even the one who’s going to be there. Safe travel and mucho mucho fun!

We are a ridiculous duo. And rest assured that I will! Thanks :-)

22 Peace Turkey November 4, 2009 at 9:32 am

I’m so effing jealous of you.

Please make mental notes for Shiz My Boyfriend Says: Vacation edition

You lucky bitch.

Oooooo, great idea!!! I’ll let that slide…

23 Kris November 4, 2009 at 9:37 am

Have a wonderful trip! Bring us all back a treat!

Will do! ;-)

24 Lollygagger November 4, 2009 at 9:38 am

Trash can = hilarious. Have fun on your trip!!!

I thought so. Thanks!

25 Travis November 4, 2009 at 9:38 am

I don’t really like the new secretary on The Office. She’s kind of a bitch. Kid Funk said, and I quote, “You just don’t like her cause she didn’t want candy on her desk without permission.”

He couldn’t have been more right.

26 flora November 4, 2009 at 12:47 pm

I couldn’t understand the no candy on her desk without permission bit either – it was stupid. I hate her for that…

27 Hannah November 4, 2009 at 9:46 am

I am so f*cking jealous I could scream. Maybe if I did scream, my boss would think I was suffering a slight nervous breakdown and send me home to recoup and recover. Or just fire my sorry ass for being crazy. Shoot.

Have such fun!!!

Oooo, I wish you could come… I know what Boston’s like in the winter!

28 Kristina P. November 4, 2009 at 9:47 am

I thought Maxie lived near you already! Have a great time in CR!

She lives in WV- TWO HOURS AWAY!!! Now she’ll be just up the road!

29 Liebchen November 4, 2009 at 9:52 am

Have so much fun!

Also, the “don’t contradict me with things I’ve taught you” convo? I’m pretty sure I’ve had that one. Silly boys.

The degree of indignance was priceless.

30 A Super Girl November 4, 2009 at 9:52 am

Favorites: bathroom trashcan (only a man would think that it’s inefficient) and Murray the Mongoose.

Have a great trip. I’ll be stuck in Detroit, jealous as hell.

“Murray the Mongoose” sounds like a fantastic children’s book.

31 BeckEye November 4, 2009 at 10:11 am

Enjoy Costa Rica, you whore.

That name-calling may have been the result of insane jealousy.

That’s fair.

32 Kim November 4, 2009 at 10:19 am

Her boobs probably were a bargain compared to that koi.

33 Aritza, Goddess of .. November 4, 2009 at 10:22 am

Hahaha, that’s an awesome post, as always I adore The shiz :P
Have a great time in CR and don’t get too much sand in your bikini .. if ya know what I mean *wink wink* .. you don’t ?!
Uhmm, o-tay, forget I even mentionned it.

34 Nikki November 4, 2009 at 10:22 am

What?! What will we do for the next few weeks? *sob* Why haven’t we seen your halloween photos yet??

Oh, have fun I guess ;)

35 LA Cochran November 4, 2009 at 10:24 am

I hope you see monkeys! Have a grand time!

36 Chandra November 4, 2009 at 10:25 am

Hey, Newbie reader here. So far, I find your blog way fun and just thought I’d say hi.

Oh and here I was thinking my husband was the only person that said things like that.

37 MJenks November 4, 2009 at 10:25 am

Don’t knock it. I’ve drank a beer while on the shitter. One of the most relaxing things I’ve ever done. Turn the lights out of a good ambiance.

38 Chandra November 4, 2009 at 10:26 am

Oh, and I just looked at a pic of Murray. And I have a cat that looks a lot like that. Random…

39 Kendall November 4, 2009 at 10:28 am

There may have been a brief moment of panic where I read the farewell and you were peacing out from the blogging world. Glad to know it’s just your Costa Rica trip.

The “I forgot my beer” line is similar to something I would say. Except for me it’d be “I forgot my iPod”.

Have fun, take tons of pictures, and we’ll see you when you get back. Take care.

40 Elizabeth November 4, 2009 at 10:30 am

Have a blast! I won’t be jealous. Not at all…

41 Miss_Nobody November 4, 2009 at 10:37 am

Have fun in Costa Rica!!!And er-cat…mongoose.Um okay I’ll take your word for it!
Oh,and btw I have something for you on my blog

42 mermanda November 4, 2009 at 10:50 am

Okay maybe you can clear this up for me. How exactly does one throw out a trash can? This has really kept me up late at night for years.

43 Dana November 4, 2009 at 11:00 am

Those were hilarious!!! And let B know, I usually take my beer with me as well to do the duty! HA!

Have fun! We just got back from Jamaica! Hope your weather is beautiful! And those little pink umbrella drinks… my tum tum still aches with a passion when I think about them! :)

44 Michelle November 4, 2009 at 11:01 am

Maxie’s moving to DC? Shit. Did anybody warn the citizens? It’s going to be complete utter chaos and debauchery, the two of you in close proximity! Awesome! Have a great time on your well deserved vacation. Oh, and you and B are freakin’ killing me. You two need your own reality show. Seriously!

45 Miss Procras. November 4, 2009 at 11:10 am

My boyfriend has to have his iPhone in the bathroom. B is much more badass with the beer. I’ll tell him he needs to step it up a notch.

Hope y’all have an amazing trip!

46 hillbillyduhn November 4, 2009 at 11:14 am

The koi pond… hubs and I have these kinds of discussions all the time, I’m referring to boobs or woman, and he’s talking about cars or something off in the distance… And the blank stare always get pointed at me.

Have fun. Yes, jealous, will miss you!

47 Dani November 4, 2009 at 11:28 am

Well at least now you wont have any cobras invading your apartment and hiding in your inefficient trash cans.

Have an excellent time in Costa Rica!

48 Laura at Vodka Logic November 4, 2009 at 11:32 am

Poop problem…and they are prob $2000 too funny stuff

49 Brooke November 4, 2009 at 11:46 am

Have so much fun in Costa Rica! I love the inefficient trash can. Hahahaha.

50 Alice November 4, 2009 at 11:50 am

i TOTALLY do not take beer into the bathroom with me often enough. i hereby pledge to correct that deplorable lack of awesomeness.

51 Randi November 4, 2009 at 11:55 am

actually sometimes i take my beer to the bathroom too… lol!

have fun on your trip!!

52 DawnDishesItOut November 4, 2009 at 12:00 pm

Beer in the bathroom … thank God my hubby does’t read this blog! He doesn’t need any new ideas!! LOL

Have a safe & relaxing trip!!

53 Sara November 4, 2009 at 12:02 pm

HAHA I swear, my fiance says some of the strangest, yet funniest, things ever too. Other times he just pulls stuff out of the air and I give him a look of, “You dork.” :)

54 Lisa November 4, 2009 at 12:16 pm

Have such a good time on your trip! Envy abounds!

55 Julie November 4, 2009 at 12:21 pm

You deserve this vaca like no one I’ve ever met.

Have a motherfking blast.

56 Ams November 4, 2009 at 12:24 pm

TRRRRRREEESSSSS Jealous right now!
Have a great, wonderful, drunken time on the warm Caribbean beach… ummmmm we’ll all be HERE if you need us ;)

57 k8 November 4, 2009 at 12:25 pm

I will talk on the phone while pooping, but I absolutely cannot talk on the phone while naked. Or if I know the other person is naked. I can’t.

Oh, and boobs around here are $6685. In case you were wondering. But you’ve got an awesome rack – so whatever.

HAVE FUN! Monkeys! Monkeys!

58 Hip Hop Hippie November 4, 2009 at 12:30 pm

Some of the best convos tween my man and I happen in the bathroom. We should start a series called “The Bathroom Diaries” or some shiz. Have a mega-awesomelypants vaca!!!

59 Adrienzgirl November 4, 2009 at 12:37 pm

B is right, you are an evil-hooker whore. I hope you get sunburned tits and ass while your gone. That would serve you right bad word.

Oh, and doesn’t everyone take their adult beverage to the toilet?

60 alliemarien November 4, 2009 at 12:43 pm

haha so cute! i love to read conversations of people. it’s like the twitter what my dad says.

61 Marie November 4, 2009 at 12:47 pm

I’m glad to hear Matt is not the only guy who takes his beer into the bathroom with him for a poop.

Safe travels and have a wonderful time!!!

62 emrlds November 4, 2009 at 12:51 pm

63 nashe November 4, 2009 at 12:57 pm

The last one is the best! HAHAHAAAZ

What Puerto Rico?? If you see your suitcase moving, that’ll be me inside. Hola!

64 a!kO November 4, 2009 at 1:16 pm

What’s a mongoose? I know…stupid question, but I am lazy to google :P I do love ‘the shiz my boyfriend says’. :D Wish my bf has some shiz to say :P . OH, have fun in the sun :D and don’t get too much sun without sunscreen…will miss ya. :) Be back…:P to the wonderful wonderland of DC…(wouldn’t it be freezing cold when you come back?)

65 Head Biting Princess November 4, 2009 at 1:17 pm

kiss kiss .. listen Lilu .. i’m gonna freakin miss you
and your squirrel-i-ness … but ..
I sincerely hope you both have the awesomest chillaxing vacation you could ever possibly imagine .. and if by some crazy chance you do forget us all with every sip you take (c-rap.. Police song now floods my head -every breath you take) .. flippopotamas !! I don’t remember what I was going to say , the song distracted me..
Later !!!

66 Kellie November 4, 2009 at 1:33 pm

Can I tell you how much I love, love, love the fact that B takes a beer into the bathroom with him? I have been known to do that a time or 2 before (who am I kidding, all the time) so now I feel in good company.

Have a blast on your vacay! Mucho jealouso!

xoxo

67 Toe November 4, 2009 at 1:33 pm

Ha, my Hubs calls his poop situation the “downtown pushdowns” but I wasn’t aware drinking while doing business was a no no. I learn something from you everyday.

Have fun in Costa Rica!

68 Patrick November 4, 2009 at 1:34 pm

Have a good trip!

69 Maxie November 4, 2009 at 1:38 pm

The city has no clue what they’re in for.

70 eric November 4, 2009 at 1:43 pm

Costa Rica! Sweet trip, are you going to do any eco-tour hiking and stuff? See if you can’t find and bring back a monkey…

ps – Erin does indeed

71 Kayla November 4, 2009 at 1:57 pm

Okay I didn’t realize you were going on vacation and may I just say: You. Suck. LOL
I’m SO completely jealous, but not too jealous to say have a great time and a safe trip!

72 Cindy November 4, 2009 at 2:07 pm

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Enjoy Costa Rica!!!!!!!!

73 HannahBlue November 4, 2009 at 2:14 pm

I am SO jealous of your upcoming trip! Have a great time and remind B that soon he’ll be able to bring drinks with umbrellas in them to the bathroom next time he has a “poop situation”. ;)

74 Carol November 4, 2009 at 2:49 pm

Poop & a beer – how could you go wrong?!
All he needs now is the cell phone with internet… he may never come out

Have a great trip!

75 Hope November 4, 2009 at 3:19 pm

Have fun!!!

Just be glad it’s just a beer in the bathroom… My BF likes to bring his laptop in there. Along with a kitchen stool to rest it on. Ewww.

76 katelin November 4, 2009 at 3:26 pm

77 Ela November 4, 2009 at 3:39 pm

84 Susan November 4, 2009 at 9:06 pm

Have so much fun!!! Can’t wait to hear about your trip!

Mike just told me that sometimes he slips in idiot responses in conversation just to catch me off guard and make me think, “oh my God what am I getting myself into.” Sometimes it works.

85 Just Fine Just Dandy November 4, 2009 at 9:09 pm

Have a blast! I’m sure you will!

86 Candice November 4, 2009 at 9:25 pm

I hope B proposes! I keep dreaming that one day I’ll see you and Maxie on “say yes to the dress” nothing would make me happier. sophie in toronto

95 Des November 6, 2009 at 11:06 am

Costa Rica is a beautiful country. Hope you have a relaxing trip.
