Do you want to go the mall tomorrow?
Sure, it’s been a while.
Great, it’ll be fun. But lets not buy anything.
I know. Next time don’t say it before we go.
(We actually don’t keep it too tight. Just in case you’re curious, out clothing expenses are included in HomeExp. We averaged $434 a month this year, which isn’t too shabby I say. That included a refrigerator, a washer and a dryer.)

My sisters are visiting us over thanksgiving.
How long are they staying with us?
Three days.
Can they sleep on the floor?

I’d like to set aside some money for when I go out with my sisters, she tells me.
That, sexy girl, has to come out of the 2% we’ve allocated for recreation. You can probably go out a few times. Choose wisely.
Can you take them to the Chinese buffet?

Would you do this if you had a million dollars?, asked my wife as she came home from work this morning.
Yes I would, I tell her. I’m staring my the spreadsheet.
How about ten million?
Yes, I would.
I’m going to sleep now, you incorrigible boy.
