Unfiltered Story #27974

(I’ve stayed in touch with my freshman college roommate and am good friends with her and her now husband; both of them are people of science. At the time of this story, they are officially engaged.)

Me: (on the phone) I saw a story on NotAlwaysRomantic that was totally you and (Husband’s Name).

Her: Oh?

Me: Yeah; it was about a guy who somehow accidentally set a waterfall on fire at work and his wife not wanting to know how he did. Except if it was you and (Husband’s Name), he’d have done it on purpose, he’d know exactly how he did it and you’d want to know how he did it.

Her: (laughing) Yeah; that’s us.

(They have interesting plans about teaching their kids; something involving dissection I think.)
