A conversation between AP and me while driving in the car during our 130th rainstorm of the month:
Me: So — next summer I’m going to go to spend a month in the south of France with Richard and Viki. Would you have a problem with that?
AP: Pffffft. I think SO.
***Looonnnnng Pause***
Me: So what I’m hearing is that you’re not supportive of the idea of me living in the south of France for a month next summer.
AP: (Hilarious laughter)
I tried.
P.S. – AP can be so selfish, no?

My Dearly Beloved, on the other hand, seemed quite pleased to wave goodbye to me! 😉
