Ask Not For Whom the Horn Honks.......

Mister Lily Shows Off His Pearl Necklace
("NanaBear" by Cara *acrylic on wood)

A conversation I overheard outside our door this week.

Lovely husband and lovely wife...

Wife: HA! Honk the horn! YOU do it!

Husband in a whisperish: No, YOU do it!

Wife: YOU. What if we're not supposed to?

Husband: Well, it SAYS honk the horn, so HONK it!

Wife: YOU honk it!

Husband: No, YOU honk it!

Wife: How loud do you think it will be?

Husband: Horn-honking loud. Like a clown on a bicycle.

Wife: What? Just honk it! HONK it!!!

Husband: Fine! (and husband weakly squeezes horn resulting in a sad and wheezy "HHhhhoooooOOOooooNNK")

Wife: Honk it harder! HARDER! Just HONK it!

Husband: FINE!

Horn: HHHOOONNNNKKK! HONK! HONK! HONK! Honk!Honk!!!!!

Both erupt in fits of giggles.

My job here is done.
