• The Chaperone

    class trip 1

    Lauren [my wife]: I signed you up to be a chaperone for Liz’s class trip.

    Me: You know I have a job as a lawyer. Right?

    Lauren: I would take it a bit more seriously if you didn’t only claim you were a lawyer when you don’t want to do things.

    Me: No, I don’t.

    Lauren: And claim you’re a writer only when an attractive woman asks you what you do.

    Me: That is not true.
