Reason # 423

Conversation in our kitchen yesterday.

Me: We need to find a cord so we can put more songs on Sabrina’s MP3 player.  The pre-loaded ones are diving me crazy.

Steve: I have one.  It is a universal USB cord.

Me: But you threw away the one that came with it!

Steve:  I know.  It is a universal USB cord.  Don’t worry, I have several.

Me:  But it had a thing on 1 end that looked like my cell phone charger and the other end was the computer plug in thingy.

Steve: I know what it looks like.  It is a universal USB cord.

Me: But this is a USB cord [holding up camera cord] and it doesn’t look like that.

Steve: Well not everything uses the universal one.

Me: Then it isn’t exactly universal, now is it?  They should call it the Prevelant USB cord then.

Steve: [muttering something under his breath as he walks away]

Reason #19

Most things in our house bring to mind a song for at least one of us.

In bed 2 nights ago, Steve finished writing in his journal and was shutting off his light.

Steve: I used the word “day” a dozen times in one paragraph!

Instead of asking the obvious question “What were you writing about that required the use of “day” a dozen times in one paragraph?”, I looked at him blankly for a moment and then:

Day, me say day-ay-ay-o
Daylight come and me wan’ go home
Day, me say day, me say day, me say day
Daylight come and me wan’ go home

Thankfully he thought it was pretty damn funny.
