We have a hard time when I get on a roll with my jokes. She quite often doesn't think I am funny at all. It has been pretty hard convincing her that I am in fact by american standards capable of being funny. So far it has been an uphill battle.

Joanna, on the other hand... when she doesn't understand the humor... laughs anyway :) Although secretly, I think she is laughing AT me :)

Ok... naptime!

American humor is a little different. The reason how I know is because even when I joke with Marina, sometimes she doesn't think I am joking.

Stay strong Lee!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To me it usually ends up being funny. But you know how a joke isn't funny if you have to explain why it's funny. I think it is just something I have learned to accept that my wife will never think I am as funny as my friends think I am. We still joke around so it isn't that big of a hurdle. I know exactly what you mean with Marina though.

Hey guys how you been! how was your weekend. Mine was pretty tranquil until Saturday night when i went bar hopping in Manhattan and had some drinks with a friend from high school whom i haven't seem in a while, he's mad cool and we were talking about the fun times back then and having some beers. The lower east side is pretty fun place to hang out.

By the way, my girl's medical is this Friday and she'll get the results returned on the 4th of august...

I already bought her luggage and hand luggage for her trip, neat for a girl lol.

Whats new here!

With me and Marina it doesn't happen that often (very rarely). Both of us are from the same city originally, so our humor and culture is the same. But sometimes my American comes out and she doesn't get it.
