How Was Your Day?

The other night, Brandon and I were both in the bathroom. I had just come home from visiting my mother in the nursing home and was about to take a bath, and he, having seen little of me that day, was just in there chatting with me.

BRANDON: So how was your day, Mama?

ME: (wearily) Ohhh... it was fine, I guess.

HIM: Except for the part where you had to work?

ME: Yeah. And the part where I went to the nursing home.

HIM: (stating the obvious, as if to a fool) Mama, that's all you've done all day.

ME: Oh. Then I guess my day sucked.

HIM: (laughed heartlessly)
