Tonight in the car, on the way home from voting.

Me (to my husband): “What is eminent domain?”

My husband (so stunned that he physically recoils): “Did you take Civics?”

Me: “Ye-es.”

My husband (in a tone that clearly says, I cannot believe I let you sleep in my bed every night): “Do you watch the news?”

Me: “No. Could you please just answer my question without trying to make me feel bad?”

My husband: “Um, no, apparently not.”
