A "typical" phone conversation between The Man and the Duchess

Duchess: Hey baby on the way home from work can you stop by Home Depot?

The Man: Sure what do you need?

Duchess: Some lawn bags, new gloves the ones I have now aren't very good at keeping the picklers from not pickling me and a hatchet.

The Man: Ok lawn bags, gloves and what?

Duchess: A hatchet. A small one if you can find one.

The Man: A hatchet? Why a hatchet?

Duchess: We need one for a weed that thinks its a tree.

The Man: I see. Why don't I take a look before buying a hatchet.

Duchess: Whatever, we still need a hatchet.

The Man: Babe hatchets kill people.

For some reason The Man does not trust me with power tools or anything heavy and sharp. Hmmm wonder why?

Not quite what I said, but close. I would have had to be the one to drag her to the hospital when she sunk that hatchet into her leg. That's not one of my favorite things to do.
