Strange Conversations: Part Seventy-Eight

NICK: Oh, look: there’s a water dragon climbing the yukka stalk!
ME: I can’t see it.
NICK: It’s sort of behind. You won’t see it from there.
ME: I still can’t see it.
NICK: Look, there! It just moved!
ME: There’s nothing there, is there?
NICK: No, there! See? It just moved its head.
ME: There’s seriously nothing there.
NICK: Oh my god. You can’t see that?
ME: No, because there’s nothing there.
NICK: There! It’s moving again.
ME: I’m not looking any more. There’s nothing there!
So, anyway (as my mother would say):
On the other hand, I don’t see a yukka stalk anywhere in this picture, do you? So I claim the moral victory.
