Reasons Why Engineers are Funny #11*
As many of you know, I am getting married to Mr. Rochester on April 29th. He finally got rid of the old bat in the attic** so we are free to live out our years in wedded bliss. We are having the rehearsal dinner at our house, a nice, laid back luau. There will be quite a few people, children, dogs, and celebrities*** in attendance.
Mr. R sent me an email today which contained the following sentence, ” I drew a schematic layout of our backyard with how it should be arranged for the rehearsal dinner party.”
I am not sure the words “schematic layout” should appear in the same paragraph as margarita machine, keg, Christmas lights, and umbrella. They tend to suck the joy out of things.
I wonder if he used graph paper for the layout.
–Jane, would bet money he did
*This number is completely made-up.
**No real bats were harmed for this exorcism.
***There will not be any real celebrities, unless you count my crazy Uncle Tim.





You’re welcome to borrow my xmas lights, by the way, if you need any extras.
I’m told my great-grandfather used to go to the barber with a blueprint of how he wanted his hair cut. I hope the schematic layout is a good one
That is awesome. And that is why engineers are awesome.
