Strange Conversations: Part Eighty-Six
Posted 7 February 2009 in Strange Conversations by Catriona
ME: Honey, don’t store things on the windowsill. (It’s not just nagging: that windowsill also gets full sunlight most of the day.)
NICK: What?
ME: The Ajax.
NICK: Oh. That’s a temporary measure.
ME: They’re all temporary measures.
NICK: It’s the war.
ME: What war?
NICK: The war.
ME: Which war?
NICK: I can’t tell you. It’s a secret war.
ME: A secret war.
NICK: Marvel Secret Wars.
ME: Marvel Secret Wars are the reason why you left the Ajax on the kitchen windowsill?
NICK: Yes.

ah, but the Marvel Secret Wars where crap, so I wouldn’t be inclined to that take as an excuse.

I’m wondering what his excuse is for the iMac box that’s been in our living room for six weeks. Marvel Civil War, perchance?

well, a slighly better excuse, at least when you first listen to it, however, the more you listen to it, the worse it gets, and the ending was just stupid.

Just like all Nick’s excuses!
When he has an excuse.
Normally, if I say, “Honey, why is this thing here?”, he’ll say, “Well, I’m not going to lie to you, Treen” and then just walk off.
(I realise these posts make me sound like a passive-aggressive shrew, but even Nick would admit that he has a real talent for just scattering the oddest things in the oddest places.)
