Airplane Love

The following is a conversion my wife and I had on an airplane trip by passing my iPhone back and forth writing notes. I was venting about the children behind me and their 'childish' behavior during a 6am flight.

Me: They open the window shade that is right in my periphery and kick, pinch and grab my seat. I am furious.

Wife: You really seem cranky today. You should smile more and be happy. You are with your family and they love you. Breathe deep.

Me: My toys do not work. I am tired. Tired of stupid people. Tired of the bitch and her kids kicking my fucking chair!!

Wife:  I love you.

Me: It took you a long time to write that. I will be fine once we vacate this plane.

Wife: Silly.

Me: I think we should buy an iPad 2.

When I grow up....

Sitting around the breakfast table, my son, age 4 says, 'Can I put chocolate sauce in your coffee?' I politely decline. He says, 'When I am a parent, I am going to put chocolate sauce in my coffee.'

Now only if I had foresight when I was 4.
