Me: "The package gives us options. Do you want to make ultra-vibrant colored eggs; regular colored eggs; or pastel eggs?"
James: "What's the difference?"
Me: "You use vinegar for the bright eggs, lemon juice for the medium ones, and water for the pastels."
James: "Which do you want?"
Me: "I don't care. Do you have a preference?"

Me: Yeah? She's there a lot.
James: Her husband's phone wasn't working.
Me: Oh.
James: She called me a bastard.
Me: What?! She's Local-TV-Anchorwoman! She can't do that! What happened?
James: She asked me if we have kids. I told her that we're enjoying it just being the two of us right now.
Me: Okay....
James: And she said, "You bastard!"
