Told my husband I was going to go get lost in the woods and would be stopping on the way back for cocoa. I think he took the first part as metaphorical because he was surprised I was gone so long and also that I was worried of ticks.
"Why would you have ticks?"
"I went to the woods."
"What."
"The park...I said I was going for a walk in the woods."
"Oh. I thought, okay. Did you have fun?"
"Yeah, it was nice. Too far to make a habit but nice. I got lost but there were people taking pictures and cackling so I followed them out. Took until I was at the car before realizing one of them was making fun of me...but that's fine."
"Making fun of you for what?"
"My face was flushed when they saw me, and you know. Big cheeks all red..."
"Rude. Some people..."
"It's fine. I had fun. The geese were hissy but their babies were cute. I did yet cocoa. So...do you want brownie cookies for father's day?"
"I heard you can smoosh chocolate chip cookie dough and brownie dough together and they bake at the same time."
"You want a chocolate chip brownie cookie?"
"I'm just saying. It's a thing people do."
"I can try that."
