Conversations That Shouldn't Be Ignored

While distractedly straightening up and putting laundry away this afternoon, I overheard the following conversation between Lauren and Marty:

Marty: I smell something

Lauren: That smells like someone's barbecue.

Marty: That smells gross.

Lauren: That smells like someone blew out a lot of candles.

Marty: I don't like that smell.

Lauren: Don't worry Marty, it just smells like someone has a fire.

Me: Hmmm, none of the windows are open, I wonder what they smell.



Oops. Maybe next time I'll investigate a little quicker.
