Conversation between me and my husband this afternoon... Hubs: I'm affixing your shoe tree to the closet door. Me: Why? Maybe I don't want it affixed. Hubs: Because it keeps the door open. Me: Does that disturb you at night? Hubs: It drives me crazy. Me: Are you afraid monsters are going to crawl out of my boots? Hubs: I think one already has. Me: Jerk. Great comeback. |
