The “Joys” of Marriage.

Yesterday morning Reilly and I had a disagreement, or a fight, or something of that nature while we were getting ready for work. Later on that morning I emailed him at work so we could talk about what had happened. I informed him that I’ve been feeling out of sorts recently. What followed is inexplicable… so much so that I feel compelled to post a transcript. Enjoy.

R: I love you, Beenie.

K: I love you, too. I’m sorry… I know I’ve been stressing you out to the MAXIMUM.

R: That made me laugh. New Reilly Marriage! Now with MAXIMUM stress!!

K: Also comes in EXTREME DYSFUNCTION!

R: Now, with minty fresh DOG POOP!

K: As an extra bonus, receive ROTTING FOOD IN THE FRIDGE with purchase!

R: If you buy now, in the next fifteen minutes we will send you, free of charge, NO LAUNDRY and the personal TINY LIVING SPACE!

K: And for just $4.95 more, you can add the amazing MILDEW COVERED BATHTUB and DOG HAIR COVERED COUCH to your purchase! Take advantage of this limited time offer!!!

R: If you decide to return your purchase within thirty days feel free to keep the complimentary BITTER AND ANGRY ARGUING!

K: I love us.

    Jeff, I think maybe it’s just that your house is cleaner than ours. We’re not funny… just really dirty.

    Ain’t it grand when your stupid arguments end up in absurd laughter?

    Arguing with Reilly is the best…especially if you DON”T live with him :)

    this was great. Everyone should take notes on how to reconcile right.
