The inner workings of our marriage

"Have you seen my wallet?"
"No...where did you have it last"
"In my pants that you just washed-did you check the pockets?"
.............silence...........
"yea....which pocket was it in"
"the back one"
........more silence...........

"the pants didn't feel heavy enough to have a wallet in them"

.....silence...... sound of dryer opening and then more silence....

"I wish you'd be more careful"

"sorry....

....well why don't you look on the bright side: you needed a new wallet anyway!"
