my parents are out visiting us for three weeks. we’re long past the 2/3 mark and they’ll be leaving on tuesday. it’s going quite well, thank you for asking. they are apartment-sitting for one of my coworkers and today some piece of hardware fell off a door or something in the apartment. my dad, ever the handyman, told me that he wanted to fix it. i said i’d loan him some screws and a screwdriver (apple, not far from the tree).

as we were wrapping up dinner tonight, we were talking about supplies needed to fix the door and my mother looked at me and inquired, “do you have long screws in your apartment?”

silence.

she’s usually good for about one of these comments per trip and this one was a gem.
