Jersey Girls Unite!
HEY JERSEY GIRLS! If you read the 'About Me' page, I'm a South Riding resident but raised as a 'Jersey Girl'. If you are originally from Jersey you know we are a special breed. I would like to find more Jersey girls in the Northern Virginia area. I created this special JERSEY GIRLS FORUM so we can find each other!
New Jersey Wife
Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties.
The first man had married a woman from Illinois and had told her that she was going to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.
The second man had married a woman from Michigan. He had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the cooking. The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he saw it was better.
By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done, and there was a huge dinner on the table.
The third man had married a beautiful girl from New Jersey. He told her that her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said
the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything, but by the third day some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye, enough to fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher.
