MONDAY
Jeani asked, "Where are your kleenexes?"
She was headed to the back bedroom for the night.
I said, "Under the Easter Island Nose. And I have a spare box over here, too," pointing to the lower cabinet.
Jeani responded, "You're just making me feel at home. I'm here for a month."
"I know," I said, "I knew that when you came, and I'm glad."
And then we collapsed chuckling, me crossing my legs, and her doubling over, in laughter when she stumbled over her next words.
Supposing she didn't want to be an inconvenience, I heard her say, "I'm here for a month. I'm sorry. I feel so ...." and she ducked and giggled, "wonderful!"
THURSDAY
Jeani was discussing the jumbo Skippy Nut Roll she'd just purchased.
"I just gotta try this."
Simultaneously her phone did a sing-song.
I was aiming for the stairs to go upstairs, when my mind blanked out.
I asked aloud: "Alright what was I thinking of......"
Instantly, she said, "BACON!"
