Thursday Bonus Conversation

Last weekend while riding in the car with Spouse, Wondergirl and BoyWonder on the way to the (not) mountain-biking extravaganza, we got lost. We got lost because Spouse decided to take a "creative" route to get there. The route we ended up taking was pretty, but confusing. We began to have the glass=half full/glass=half empty conversation. The following ensued:

BoyWonder: "An engineer looks at the glass and says, 'The glass is twice as big as it needs to be.'"

Cheesehead: "The minister looks at a glass with water and in it and says, 'I've got water, who's thirsty?'"

BoyWonder: (to Wondergirl) "I don't get it."

Wondergirl: (to BoyWonder) "Don't. Please don't ask. I'm begging you. Don't. She'll start in. It'll be Jesus-this and Jesus-that the rest of the day."


Cheesehead: Humiliating teenagers since 1999. That's me.

My dad would lead into his conversations that were always something political. I was the same as Wondergirl when I saw/heard it coming. Political debate was not my idea of interesting dinner conversation.
