Scene: Late evening in casa del thenewgreen as he has car keys in hand, heading out for the door.

"Hey hon, I'm gonna head out for a bit. I'll be back in a few days."

"What? A few days? That's not going 'out for a bit.' Where are you going?"

". . . Denver."

"DENVER?! WHAT THE FUCK IS OUT IN DENVER?"

"I owe a guy a beer for helping out on Hubski so much lately."

"Hubski? Oh Dear Lord. You and this Hubski thing with your stickers and your internet friends. Fine. You can go to Denver but I need you back by this weekend. My mother is coming to visit."

"I can't make any promises babe. You know how erratic the weather in Colorado is. I might get snowed in or something."

". . . it's October."

"Climate shift babe. It's the way of the world now. K. Gotta go. Love ya. Bye."

I mean, you say that like it wouldn't happen, but crazier shit has happened in this state.

"You got some mail today"

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah. It's covered in writing and hearts and pictures. I think it's about the website you're always looking at."

"Oh cool, my stickers arrived!"

I can't even imagine the conversation that would ensue for a meetup...

If only all wives could be so patient and understanding.
