A Conversation
“I’ve lost my cereal bowl. I had it Friday.”
“Did you look in the refrigerator?”
“You nailed it. I didn’t finish my soup.”
“Those new extensions?”
“Maybe.”
“I don’t understand why you change color or length every week.”
“It makes me more interesting.”
“The water cooler took three minutes to give me hot water.”
“It’s not sucking.”
“Yeah, that’s what I meant.”
“No. It’s not getting any air, so the water isn’t coming out.”
“Well, that sucks. You know, I really don’t want this leftover soup.”
“Dump it out.”
“I should have done that when I was looking for a cereal bowl.”
