You're a good man, Charlie Brown

An actual email conversation:

Me: "So, the deal was still going on at Smith's . . . so I might have purchased three varieties of hot chocolate as well as a pumpkin. Hope that's cool with you. :D (I suppoooooooose I could return one if necessary.)"

Jacob: "You bought only 3 hot chocolates???? ;0 I was thinking you were going to buy more. Only one pumpkin? Did you get a GINORMOUS one? :) I guess you could have gotten two."

Well then, if you insist, I'll go out and spend all our dollars on more hot chocolate and pumpkins.

Why do I feel like most wives get opposite reactions to their shopping sprees?
