Okay, I'm a little hard of hearing. But Belinda's a low talker.We're going into Target. I ask, "What are we here for?"
I thought I heard Belinda say "A lawn sock".
"Why do we need a lawn sock?" I ask.
"AN ALARM CLOCK!" Belinda replies in a normal volume.
"Oh yeah" I say.
While pushing the cart down the isle by the DVD's, Belinda tells me "My kids are boobies".
"Your kids are boobies?" I ask.
"HERE ARE THE MOVIES!" she says in a normal voice.
We go to look at the alarm clocks. Belinda tells me of an artist that stuck a bunch of clocks together to make a "mirage".
"I think the word you're looking for is collage", I correct her.
"No, I think it was a mirage", she says.
"Oh", I replied, "It wasn't really there."
well, maybe you weren't hearing things. Doesn't everybody need a lawn sock? And while I've never met your children and I'm sure they are lovely people, maybe your beautiful wife does think they are boobies. And well, frankly I really wouldn't be too surprised if you are seeing things.
Usually we hear. The health of the relationship and the reasonableness of the request are in direct proportion to how much is listened to. After listening a response may or may not occur depending on the same two conditions above. Finally, affirmative action will only happen once all these barriers have been overcome and the Steelers aren't on TV.
