while preparing dinner ...

Me: The cats aren't going to be happy with me.

Hubby: Why?

Me: I'm going to have to use the can opener to open up a can of clam sauce.

Hubby: They'll be fine.

Me: But they look at me with those sad eyes.*

Hubby: It would have been funnier if you said you were going to open up a can of whoop ass.

Me: We don't have any whoop ass.

Hubby: Well, you don't!


* My kitties think that every time they hear the can opener, there will be tuna for them to share!
