How was your day honey?
Hubby (calls from an ordinary IT business trip to Chicago): So what did you do today? How are the kids?
Me: Fine. We just sat around. The kids swam for a little bit. How was your day?
Hubby: Well we had a tornado warning here, but that’s okay because we were at a particle accelerator and they had an underground area we could go to.
Me: <crickets> Uh yea. Me too. I was at a particle accelerator too. <rolls eyes>
Hubby: No seriously. R knows a guy who works at the particle accelerator here. He told us to stop by and he’d give us a tour. So I got to see a particle accelerator.
Me (wearing science dork hat): I can’t believe you went to a particle accelerator without me. So. Jealous.
