When real things happen to imaginary people

(Conversation is slightly paraphrased)

Me: "Honey, help me decide which angle looks best for this skeleton hand I want to put on this purse."

The Stroppy One: "What? Wait, you didn't yank that off of your other purse, did you?"

Me: "No. I got an extra skeleton hand."

The Stroppy One: " ... Where?"

Me: "eBay!"

The Stroppy One: "Of course. eBay."

^**Note To Self: Cull the handbags and sell some of them in the upcoming wardrobe sale. Yes, really.
