Do you want a boat?

Do you want a boat?

No.

Why not?

Boats cost money.

I have money.

They cost… MAINTENANCE money.

I have maintenance money!

Fine. Who am I to stop you? If you want a boat?! Get a boat?!

No, I’m asking if YOU want a boat?

No?! I don’t want a boat?! Why would I want a boat?!

It’s a nice thing to have!

Okay then?! If YOU want a boat… get a boat… for yourself?!

No, I only want to get a boat if YOU want a boat…

WHY?!!?!?!?!? (Laughing)

I want to get YOU a boat, I want to name the boat after YOU…

But… I’m not asking you to do that?! You don’t need to do that for me?!?!

Okay, fine… I won’t get a boat…

(Laughing) I’m still confused… if you want a boat, just get a boat?! Why do you need me to tell you or give you permission to get a boat?!

Because I do want your permission! I don’t want to get a boat if you don’t want a boat.

(Sigh) I don’t think… we “need” a boat… at this stage… in our lives… maybe?! Maybe some time in the future? MAYBE… okay… I won’t say “never” to a boat — but not right now. It’s like, so ridiculous. You don’t even have time to SEE. ME. How will you have time to enjoy a BOAT?!

(Nodding) (Processing) Okay I guess you’re right. No boats. Not this year.

No… not in 2025… you don’t need a boat in 2025…

(Laughing)

STOP IT!!! (Laughing more)

I don’t need a boat in 2025.

YOU. DO NOT. NEED. A BOAT. IN 2025!!!

Okay, fine. No boats. IN 2025…

(Smiling) Love you!

Love you, too! xoxoxoxoxox
