A Typical Conversation

Earlier this morning, as The Husband walked past me while I was here at my usual perch at the end of the kitchen counter, he and I had the following conversation.

Me:  "I want to show you something"  (pause, while I pull up the picture on Pinterest)

Me:  "Do you like it""  (showing him this picture of an Oriental rug)



Him:  "I like it.  It's interesting."

Me:  "Good, because it's ours."

Him:  "It is?"

Me:  "Yes, it is.  I saw it on the shop's site, and emailed them to ask if it was still available.  They sent a PayPal invoice, and now we own it."

Him:  "I was going to ask what you bought with the PayPal account.  (He pays the bills and keeps a close eye on the bank account.)

Me:  "Now you don't have to ask."

Him:  "Where are you going to put your new rug?"

Me:  "I'm not sure yet.  I'll figure that out when I pick it up."

Him:  (sighs, and walks back into his office, shaking his head.)
