Gone Country

Lady Friend, helping me pack for a weekend trip to Nashville - "What shoes do you need to pack?"

Me - "I'll just wear my cowboy boots down there."

Lady Friend - "That's it? For the whole trip? What shirts do you need to take?"

Me - "I laid out that t-shirt over there."

Lady Friend - "You'll be gone for three days and you laid out one t-shirt."

Me - "Good point" (Throws another t-shirt on the bed.)

Lady Friend - "I'm not even going to ask if you packed boxers..."

People don't shower in the country. Don't worry.

This is the exact reason why I'm not helping the SO pack for vacation...

Let's see a picture of those boots.

Marie said...

You're just going to walk around in your tidy whiteys and boots the whole time huh?

Good work son.

I hope they are snakeskin... because if they aren't you will get NO respect down there in the Nash.

And so did Lady friend take over packing for you?

That's what I would have done.

Hey, maxie. we shower in the country. We even use soap!

nova said...

hm. i have the exact opposite conversation when i pack. i'm a t-shirt junkie. my boyfriend is always like "really? do you REALLY need twelve t-shirts for the weekend?"

Kellie said...

It's to blend in! Isn't Nashville full of country hick folk? Kidding, kidding. I think. I've never actually been there...

Women will never get it. My wife continually asks me if I need new underware. She just doesn't understand I am good till 2020 at least.

When packing for London, the boy kept questioning if I needed everything. Each response was "I'M A GIRL!" Apparently guys are cool with three shirts for a week whereas girls need at least eight. And hair products. ANd shoes.

We're so difficult.

She gets you... she really gets you.

Cowboys don't wear boxers

"...and then I packed my lady friend."

There. That's better.

You gotta work on your endings.

Christian Holm said...

Wait, you're going to Glamourville, Tennessee and you're calling it "Going to the Country?"

OKAY...

Maxie, you're right, we don't shower in the country, we take baths in crystal clear blue streams that drain into your evian water bottle... :p

I'm fine with one t-shirt and cowboy boots, no boxers required but please please confirm that you are wearing/taking jeans!
Boots, a T and a bare bahooky are fine in the house but you'll either be arrested or end up going Brokeback if you try that shit in public...just saying

I used to live in TN. Don't worry - Shirts are optional there. So are teeth.

Hahahhaa going commando for a getaway? classy.

Hex said...

The security check at Dollywood is very specific. If you're not wearing boots, they won't let you in.

I'm having such a sense of deja vu...

Anyway, have fun in Nashville!
