Today Jobina went to the library to pick up a book for herself that she had put on hold. "I guess your name isn't Mark, " the librarian joked, holding up two books in her hand. "No," Jobina replied, "But my husband's is; Mark A. Westman."
"Then this is your husband's" she said, "would you like to take it for him?" "Sure," answered Jobina. So the librarian passed her this book:
Jobina paused for a moment, feeling very uncomfortable. "Um, my husband's a counselor . . . he gets books with strange titles."
"Mm-mmm," said the librarian.
(wait til she tries to pick up my next book on sex therapy!)

I cringed a little in solidarity with your wife. I would have felt the need to overexplain thereby making myself look silly. I'm sure she handled it much more gracefully than I.
heehee...yeah I think the explanation would be necessary in this case!
you're welcome...from now on maybe I'll let you just pick up your own book!
Ha! I love this story. Way to go Jobina, hang in there!

You're lucky Mark, she could have just said "Yeah, I'm dumping him." instead. :)
That is HILARIOUS!
