a woman who gets me

A recent conversation.



Me : "Shannon, it's weird how you just get me."

Shannon : "Yea. In what way?"

Me : "Well you know, I say things for no reason, and people take me seriously. But you, nope, you go along with it."
(note : I believe empty chatter is unbiblical. Perhaps I should rethink my speech.)

Shannon : "Lol, yea probably. It's because I'm cool. But what are you talking about?"

Me : (while pushing the stroller) "For example..... Hey Shannon, what if I ram this stroller into this car right here?"

Shannon : "Oh, do it, do it."

Me : "My point exactly. You just go with it."

Shannon : "Well what do most people say?"

Me : "They look at me weird, which is normal and happens often anyway, and then say something like 'well why would you do that' or 'that's not very funny'."

Shannon : "Oh I see."

Me : "But you, you get me. You know I'm not really serious. It's all hypothetical."

Shannon : "Yea. And I'm just cool, so, you know."

:)


Later in the car.....


Me : "Hey Shannon, what if when I have kids, I tell them it's their imagination every time they think they have hurt themselves."

Shannon : "Haha. Do it."

Me : "I will. Then when they are old and maybe cut their foot off they'll say, 'Nah don't worry about it, it's just my imagination."

Shannon : "Exactly. So you should try it."





I don't have to explain this post. If you don't get it, then it means two things. 1) Obviously you aren't cool like Shannon. 2) You probably don't get me. But it's ok because I'm used to it.
