And we return to our program already in progress...

So at the Boxing Day Party today at the lovely Brett and Cate's Chort got to declare something as fact (in good faith, yeah, yeah, whatever) only to have it shown to be false within mere seconds. Naturally, we (okay, me, whatever) began to tease him about, you know, lying to us (even though he didn't, okay, fine).

Anyway, I pointed out that when I'm wrong about something I at least get to live with my delusion for longer than a heartbeat or two before I get corrected.

"Unless I'm around," David said.

"Yeah... (sigh) That's our relationship so far: a seven-year long teachable moment."

Had he only been sipping something at the moment my holiday would have been near to perfect.
