Conversation. Of. The. Day
Husband is standing on the kitchen counter replacing the light bulbs in their new house. Katie is walking back into the kitchen after taking her multivitamin. Ryker is sniffing out a dead spider, undecided as to whether it deserves to be eaten if it's not going to put up a fight first.
Husband: Well, honey, we have a problem.
Katie: What?
The room is still cast in dim shadows despite his obvious attempts to bring light to the kitchen sink/cupboard area. Bulb boxes are scattered in disarray everywhere, as are the trails of cookie crumbs where Husband has walked.
Husband: This one is beyond me.
Katie reaches over to a different light switch and flips it. Light floods the once dark crevices of the sink and cupboard.
Husband turns to his three boxes of Creme de Menthe cookies to make up the room in his body for all his lost pride. Ryker abandons him as well as the shriveled spider.
LOVE IT!!
