Hey, I just noticed you were in Washington... which part?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

What if it's a little south of Seattle?

 

[pdswife]

What if I"m a little east of Seattle, does that make us neighbors?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

I think it does, shall I bring some coffee or doughnuts?

 

[pdswife]

shall we meet at starbucks and make them do the cooking and cleaning?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

Yes, that sounds much better, doesn't it?

 

[pdswife]

Do you like starbucks as much as we do?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

Do you realize I don't go there that often?

 

[pdswife]

do you know we used to go every sunday morning but life has gotten tooooo busy and now only go once a month or so?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

I love their stuff, and do you know that back east they have a Tim Horton's?

My mom and I used to frequent that place a lot.

 

[pdswife]

Do they have better pastry than starbucks?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

No, I wouldn't say that, but do you know they have great sandwiches?

 

[pdswife]

do you know ... I've never even heard of them?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

I don't know the whole history, but what if I told you that Tim Horton was a hockey player?

 

[pdswife]

what do coffee and hockey have to do with each other?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

Don't you think you would crave coffee after playing ice hockey?

 

[pdswife]

don't you think I'd be in the hospital after playing ice hockey since I can only skate forward and very very slowly??

 

[Vanilla Bean]

What if I can't even skate forward without falling down?

 

[pdswife]

do you think we should by tickets to a play instead of playing hockey in that case...wouldn't it be safer?

 

[Vanilla Bean]

Yes, because I don't have knee/rump pads, do you?
