Frankensteins Marital Woes

In a word the monster couple was frustrated still having problems when they communicated Frankenstein and his new wife not being very verbal using a lot of mumbling and throat gurgles, So the newlywed couple went to school to learn the English language even taking drivers ed to drive a horse drawn carriage the other students trying hard not to stare at them and careful not to tease which would've caused a lot of bedlam, Eventually they both learned to exchange many words which they felt was a blessing but also a curse Frankenstein repeating jokes about his parts being from various ditches his wife rolling her eyes pretending to be in stitches, One night they got into the same old argument arguing over the holes in his socks with the bad scent Frankenstein complaining that his wife was neglecting her mending while she complained he was always out with Igor money spending, Finally Frankensteins wife said she had it up to here saying she had to go which Frankenstein had always feared with suitcase in her hand she said she was going on a monster retreat saying and while I'm gone do something about your smelly feet, Saying she was tired of doing all the castle housework by herself and airing out all the rooms after his constant farts and belches desperate Franky dangled a holy sock thinking he was doing no harm her reply while leaving being, "frankly Frank, I just don't give a darn!" Frankenstein remembered when they first met there was electricity in the air alas, he now thought, there are thunderbolts everywhere! 10-21-17

Glad you liked it; thanks for visit and grin John!~Che :) PS The reason I put frankly I don't give a "darn" was due to his obsession with her "darning" his Frankenstein socks...
