Johnny can you hear me? You're on fire!
So the fiancée (yeah... living the engaged life!) intertrupes my tweeting (WTF??) and asked me to help candle his ears. OK, what? This was so random and out of the blue.
SIDE NOTE: For those of you know do not know.. ear candling is when you insert this hollow candle like thingy (that is totally medical term by the way) specially designed to collect wax in your ear and light it on fire. Sounds like fun huh!
So...It was about 10pm and where in the world did he find these things in our house (they were given to us... and I do think they are kind of cool...but not at 10pm when I’m in the middle of something). I light the first one, and the flame is HUGE! I could not remember if I was to let it just flame or blow it out and let it smolder. I blew it out. Bad idea. It is smolder... filling my entire house with SMOKE!!! So I relight and now we have this huge flame in John's ear. Looks a bit like a very large "doobie" coming out of his head. Comical to say the least. The flame goes down a bit and he sayus he can feel the natural magic happening. (Who knows if this stuff really works by the way... I did read the FHA says it does not, but his Dr. said it did. Who knows). You need to have another person there to cut the ash or it will fall on you as the tube burns down. So I come back to do my first cutting into a bowl of water and a small piece of ask floats away on to his head and shirt! OPPS!!!! I nonchalantly pinch it out and keep my mouth shut. He is oblivious to the whole thing. No burning hair and it just seems to have left a little ash mark on his shirt... not a big deal. :)
Ok...candle one down. He gets up... goes to the bathroom to take a look and comes back in with this look on his face.. that look like I just got a D on some paper in 6th grade. WHAT! He proceeds to tell me I burned a hole in his shirt! LMAO! I burst out laughing. OMG! I would be lying if I say I felt bad... I didn't at all. I am hysterically laughing. He fuels my laughter with his next comment. "That is my only white polo". What? What guy only has one white shirt? Are you kidding!? BABY! So I light his head a blaze with the other ear candle thingy and get online and order 3 $10 polo shirts from Old Navy. I walk back in the room, carefully cut the ash and let him know his wining got him 3 new white shirts and a bag of pampers! HAHA. I’m still laughing now thinking about it. J
