I may have posted this conversation already--but it's one of only a few I actually wrote down and remember. Wish I would have written them all down!
DH and my conversation on our walk:
DH: Should we walk single file? (There was a bike in the middle of the sidewalk.)
Me: Sure.
DH Should I walk on this side of you?
Me: ok.
DH Should we talk? What should we talk about?
Me: I don’t care. Do you have an idea you’d like to talk about?
DH Let’s talk about the moon.
Me: Ok.
Silence & End of conversation!!!
The moon??? Where in the world????

I posted this before too, but.....
I just got ready for bed, when I spilled water on my PJs, so I decided to just sleep in my underwear. In the middle of the night, my wife had to pee. So I got up with her, as I always do. She looked at me, and said "Where are your panties?".

Visiting my DW in MC.
DW: (staring at me, frowning) “You shouldn’t be here. You have to get out of here!”
Me: “Why..why do you want me to go?”
DW: “ Because my husband is coming soon and you can’t be here when he comes!”
