Me: Are we still going to the Johnsons tonight for drinks? When?
Her: Well I called Tina and she doesn't get out of work till 6
Me: K, so when are we going over there?
Her: Well she has to get the kids ready for the sitter and I guess her mother is coming over for a little while as well and...
Me: Are we getting to an answer here?
Her: On what?
Me: When/if we're going!
Her: I was trying to tell you that.
Me: Just say a time, I don't need to know or care how you and Tina arrived at that time, just say it.
Her: 7:30
Me: Thank you.
Mind you this is done in good humor, not in anger. I think women are so stunned that we ask them for something that they grab ahold of the opportunity to start a conversation...They should know better
