Welcome to a new weekend section I'm calling Real Conversations I've Had With My Husband! I don't know if this will happen every weekend, but when I do post a "Real Conversation" I will always include it in a weekend update. Tonight, the ridiculous conversation that I could swear sounded like something from a poorly scripted fast-talking show was as follows:
Mr.: "I can't believe the next Fringe episode wasn't posted this week! How could they do this to me?" (slams fist on table).
Me: (contemplating) "Well, you see, the guy responsible went to a party and got really drunk, and had a three day long hangover and totally forgot he had to do it. By the time he was back to work he had so much other work to do that he didn't even realize it or even have time to do it."
Mr.: "Huh?"
Me: "Well, you wanted a reason, I gave you answer."
Mr.: "Don't lie."
Me: "It wasn't a lie. It was just a possibility."
Mr.: "You didn't say maybe the person got drunk."
Me: "Well, hypothetically. Ok, there."
Mr.: "I don't need your... hypothesizing."
Me: "Hypothecaries?"
Mr.: "That's different."
The conversation then drifted to another subject. Minutes later...
Mr.: "Apothecaries!"
Yes. That is the conversation as it actually happened. Nothing unusual here. I just can't help but wonder what it is that makes our brains work quite the way they do. It is truly incredible some of the connections we make... or, in some cases, miss.
On a side-note, last weekend I went out seeking a balance board, which I found at Target. I wanted one so I could do easy work-outs while watching TV (simply balancing on the board, getting a simple core work-out), or harder work-outs incorporating the board. It's quite the handy tool. I tell you this so you understand my next statement. While I was writing this post, my husband turned on the Wii the to play a video game, whilst standing on the balance board. Ingenuity, people!
