About a week ago, I came home from work and my husband greeted me glumly.
“What’s the matter?” I asked him.
“I’m sick,” he said. “I feel awful.”
“I’m sorry,” I responded. “What do you think you have?”
“I know exactly what I have,” he said.
Instantly, his sad face transformed into a gleeful one as he announced, “It’s March Madness, baby!”
I fall for this every year.

The other day, the phone in my office rang. It was my husband calling about what we should have for dinner.
Once that was resolved, he asked if I wanted to speak to our son, who was with him.
“Not right now,” I said, “But if I decide that I do want to talk to him, I’ll come downstairs and do it in person.”

Frank called you on the phone when you were upstairs?!
Yes, he doesn’t like stairs.
I don’t like stairs either so I’ve been working on a teleporting device powered by my domestic WIFI. Hopefully I won’t reassemble my molecules inside a wall.
Good luck with that, Jon!
