Considerate

As I walked into the house yesterday, my husband quickly put something behind his back.

“What did you buy?” I asked.

“Nothing.”

“What did you buy?”

“Nothing!”

“Liar!, I see the box!” A 3 foot by 5 foot box lay on the floor, tissue paper everywhere. My eyes followed the line to the middle of the living room, where a large red & black container sat. I recognized it immediately from “Extreme 4×4.” “You bought a parts washer?”

“Uh huh. It’s for you. For your birthday!”

“You bought me a parts washer for my birthday?”

“Uh huh.”

“What am I supposed to do with a parts washer?”

“You can do your nails in it!”

    Oh, I’ve got one of those too. Not a parts-washer, but a husband who buys things like parts washers (cigar humidors! Extra memory for my phone that he covets!)…for me. Uh huh. Yep. I honestly think their brains are made differently. Smaller, more dense and DIFFERENT.

    Heh.
