I texted my spousal unit about a recent purchase I had made, and this is how the conversation went.
Me:
I bought a new rug today.
Spousal
Unit: Why would you buy a toupee, you’re not bald?
Me:
No, it’s for upstairs.
Spousal
Unit: That’s usually where you put a toupee, yes.
Me:
Why are we talking about toupees?! You’re starting to make me feel
self-conscious! I’m talking about a rug, as in a floor covering for my office
upstairs.
Spousal
Unit: Oh, well why didn’t you just say so.
Me:
Sigh…
