Hangin' out

• "Hey, Dad, those aren't the words Mom uses when she's driving."
• "Umm, turn right here. ... Watch the car at the intersection. ... Hey, hey, hey - goin' a little too fast, aren't you? ... Watch the light, it's turning ... Turn signal, please ... What, Mom? Oh, no, your driving doesn't bother me at all, why do you ask?"
• "Wait! That's the third McDonald's you've passed, and I've got a hankerin' for a Happy Meal!"

• [Quietly to myself] "Hmmm, just what do you do when the conversation lags? Talk about awkward."
