Funny conversation

Wade is on spring break this week, so we agreed that it would be really helpful and sweet if he would do some painting in our house. We needed to paint the master bedroom, 2 bathrooms and the ceilings in the bathrooms, which have been peeling. Yesterday he worked on the ceilings all day, stripping the peeling paint, priming, spackling, cleaning brushes, etc. It was kindof a frustrating day. Today he was going to work on painting the ceilings and getting the other walls/rooms ready for painting.

He just called me at work to ask me to pick up a few things at Lowe's on my way home, and we were discussing various details about the projects, etc. When he got to my house earlier there were some boxes of wedding gifts that had been delivered - plates and stuff he wasn't too interested in. So while we're on the phone, the doorbell rings and it's another delivery of a wedding gift.

Wade: "This one's from Target."

Kim: Oh really, what is it?

(Wade unwraps the brown paper, reads the card from his cousins)

Wade: I'm not going to paint anymore.

Kim (Thinking what the heck, we just worked out all these details and you told me all the stuff you were going to do): Um, why?

Wade: Because this is a Nintendo Wii.

I still painted (: Painting is just like a real life Wii... with only one game... called "Paint It" (or something like that), and the goal of the game is to score as many points with Kim as possible.
