I love to debate. Unfortunately, so does my husband. The look we’re giving each other in the photo above is such a normal part of our relationship that we even had it immortalized via family photo. We don’t really argue (unless you count when I’m pregnant and that still wouldn’t be arguing…it would be me transforming into a banshee), but we bicker. It’s ingrained in both of our personalities – we can’t help it. The silly part is that the topic is usually something that won’t even matter five minutes later. Case in point: our recent trip to get ice cream. I was playing with Little Man while Dan placed his order. Then it was my turn and that’s when it just went wrong.
Me: So…wow. There are like a bazillion different flavors. This is going to take me a while.
Dan: Seriously? Just get the same thing as me.
No. I don’t like the same flavors as you.
Yes, you do.
No, I don’t. You get funky stuff with seven different ingredients and a crazy name. I like the basics.
I do not always get weird stuff. You’re the one who eats all the weird stuff.
Like what?
I don’t have any specific examples right now! We’re in the middle of a restaurant. Just order.
Well if you don’t have examples then don’t make the statement. Now… oh! I want Cotton Candy.
They’re out of Cotton Candy.
Crap. Okay….then I’ll take Frozen Pudding.
Out of that too. Think you can pick something they actually have?
Why are you still talking to me? ….you’re only making me take longer.
I don’t think moving any slower is possible.
What?
Nothing.
Fine. I’ll get Cake Batter…wait…they’re out of that too?! Does this place even HAVE ice cream?
(Dan is leaning against the wall as if he’s dying) They had my flavors. Just get the same thing.
No. I get to pick what I want. Stop trying to brainwash me with your ice cream voodoo. Okay…. I’ll have Red Velvet and Pistachio with sprinkles.
(turning to Dan) What did you get, anyway?
Um….Red Velvet and Pistachio with sprinkles.






that is just too funny. My husband says I have “that look” but I have no idea what he is talking about. And he usually orders what I order.
I can totally imagine you giving ‘that look’ Karen LOL
Great photo! Too funny that you did get the same thing! How is Red Velvet ice cream? It sounds super yummy!!!
It was delicious! It had big chunks of cake in it. I tried to play off the whole ‘you were right’ thing…but he definitely didn’t let me forget it lol
LOL! Sounds just like my marriage. You’d think they would learn after a while…
two “A” personalities at work…at least you made up your own mind….that’s my girl!!!
Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard at this. It totally sounds like a conversation that I would have with certain people in my family.
Hahahaha! I think you guys are soul mates. :P
