Winter home dialogues (2)
HE
I’m considering buying mushrooms for tonight.
Do you say “Yes, please” or “I really don’t care”?
SHE
Do I have any other options?
HE
Besides mushrooms?
SHE
No. Besides “Yes, please” and “I really don’t care”.
HE
You don’t want mushrooms?
SHE
I didn’t say that.
HE
Then what do you say?
SHE
I say: don’t buy mushrooms for me, but if you’re willing to go out there
in the snow to get some, I will eat them.
