I don't have to nag
Conversation between Jake and Eric. Eric is looking for a cup in the dishwasher at the same time as Jake.
Jake: (picking up a cup and turning it over to check if it's clean) You have to check the cups before you use them Dad. They're usually dirty. Because the dishwasher is broken.
Eric: Ok Jake.
Jake: Yeah, the dishwasher is broken. (pause, silence) And the car is broken too.
Eric: I know Jake.
Jake: And the dryer is broken too.
Eric: Ok, Jake.
Jake: Dad, seems like everything around here is broken.
Eric: I know Jake. As soon as I'm done with school we'll start fixing things again.
Seems like I don't have to nag. Jake is doing it for me. And NO I didn't put him up to it. I've actually tried to be very silent and hold my tongue. But this conversation did give me a good laugh.
