I Wear the Pants

Hello my lovely friends! My lack of presence here and elsewhere on the internet probably makes it apparent that I’m having difficulty keeping up my blogs or engaging in social networking while working on my books (I have 20 of them to update and rewrite for new release).

I’ve been writing like crazy and making fabulous progress on my latest manuscript. It’s the second book in a series. The first book is in the capable hands of my editor.

I came across a joke today that made me smile, so I thought I’d share it with you. I even made the time to draw a picture for you to go along with the joke! Since the book I’m writing is a contemporary romance, I was inspired by the characters in my story so I’ve used them here in my illustration.

As you can see in my expertly drawn image, these chic, fashionable characters are the embodiment of the term romance. They’re bold, beautiful, and sexy as hell. I wanted give you an idea of how incredibly sexy and romantic my books are so that you’ll be clamoring for them once they’re released.

And now, without further ado, I Wear the Pants:

Before Kevin married Lori, his dad sat him down for a father/son chat. "Kevin,” he said, “on my wedding night in our honeymoon suite, I took off my pants and handed them to your mother, saying, ‘Here, try these on.’ She did and said, ‘These are too big, I can't wear them.’ I replied, ‘Exactly. I wear the pants in this family and I always will.’ Ever since that night we’ve never had any problems."

Kevin liked the idea. On his honeymoon, he took off his pants, telling Lori to try them on. She did and said, "These are too large, they don't fit me."

"Exactly,” Kevin said. “I wear the pants in this family and I always will. I don't want you to ever forget it."

Lori took off her pants, handing them to Kevin. "Here you try on mine," she said.

He did. "I can't get into your pants," he told her.

Lori smiled. "Exactly. And if you don't change your smartass attitude, you never will."
