Taking the boys out to eat. Dominic brings a can of Dr. Pepper. It’s not unusual to see him carrying one almost everywhere. Half way to the restaurant, he opens it.
Me: You do realize that we are headed to a restaurant? To eat?
Dominic: Yeah, it negates the need to get a drink. Plus, it’s free.
Me: (Epic side-eye)…
Dominic: Oh, I meant free to me.
Me: (heavy, slow blinking)…Excuse me?
Dominic: I know. Any other parent would have beaten me for saying that.
Me: Well, maybe. You do know they have Pibb, right?
Dominic: Oh, I forgot. Crap…I might have to get a drink.
