I love the married life of communication. Sometimes, you can play on the same team of Pictionary and be exactly on the same wave-length.
“You know! That thing? The thing we did last week? With the blue scarf? YES!”
As opposed to other times… Like today… as the husband was in an unfamiliar (extremely fast car – unlike our Prius) and was enjoying it.. and proceeded to go at least 85 down the freeway in the carpool lane.
I glance up from messing with my phone and start shrieking at him, “COP! COP! COP!”
“What?” As he continues to speed past the slow moving police vehicle which was three lanes away.
“Slow down! COP! You just passed a COP!”
“Huh?”
“OH MY GOD, SLOW THE CAR DOWN. YOU JUST PASSED A COP. YOU ARE SO SCREWED RIGHT NOW.”
As we held our breath, the cop car swooped over three lanes, got behind our vehicle, followed us for 2 minutes, and then passed us and went around.
It was his lucky day.
“You know, you could have simply TOLD ME to slow down.” He says.
“WTF? Was me screaming COP not enough for you? And you were SO ridiculously lucky just now, I think I ought to be able to go on a shopping spree with that ticket money I just saved you!”
