    I was firm, but reasonable. I was also aware that this is a precedent setting email. We are establishing a baseline here. I didn't over-explain, I merely countered her assertions. I don't owe an explanation for my rationale. I get to define that. What she deserves is an answer to her concerns. I gave her that, but she will probably proceed to Defcon 1.

    That, and maybe a “damn you look cute when you’re mad” or a “you’re too pretty to be upset.”

    Oh, and make sure someone livestreams the beat-down she inflicts on you after that.

    We’re getting Indian take out tonight. The last time we did that the guy said, “oh, this is a big order, how many people?” I of course lied to hide my shame.

    See? This is why I can't stay mad at you. I frequently order a whole bunch of food and will receive four or five Forks. We have gone out to dinner and I have ordered and the waitress walked away thinking I ordered for my family of four. You have to have a hobby I guess.

    Leftovers are the cover for everything, whether or not you actually plan to have any.

    And fictional family members. We ordered one fewer app than last time and I was not questioned so perhaps I've struck the magic 'big order but not so big as to require inquiry from the proprietor' balance.

    Indian food, along with Chinese and Thai food, are my favorite leftovers. Now you know why I need those Charmin Ultra Mega rolls.

    The conversation is flying fast and furious in the conference realignment thread over yonder.
    College athletics are just about dead to me at this point.
