Another conversation between Dave and I.
The location: At work (Dave in Hyde Park and me in River North)
The time: Early afternoon
The scene: We're running through our plans this weekend, which inevitably include some sort of wedding something or other.
Dave: Nothing going on this weekend, right?
Me: Nope.
Dave: Can we keep it that way?
Me: Sure.
Dave: Okay. I think we'll stop by this travel store over the weekend so we can figure out this adapter shit for Australia.
He knows that if I can't plug in my flat iron, there will be Hell To Pay.
Me: Gotta get a marriage license one of these days too.
Dave: That's right. I'm gonna look into that right now.
Me: (busy Twittering)
Dave: Hey, can we go on Saturday? It's open 9am to noon.
Me: See if it will be raining. I'll go if the weather isn't good for laying out.
Dave: Elle. Come on.
Me: What? Tanning is very important for the wedding, Dave.
At this point, I picture him rolling his eyes, letting out a defeated sigh and wondering what those cougars are up to at Elm St.
Dave: We have scattered storms on Saturday.
Me: That is acceptable.
Dave: Anyway, if we go at 9, we can probably be back by 10 and you can still get a seat.
Me: I don't know. You know how those dickheads have been saving chairs lately.
Dave: Well, it looks like it will be a cloudy weekend anyway.
Me: Then we can get the marriage license.
Dave: So, what, we just wouldn't get it if the next few weeks were sunny?
Me: Correct. I would take off work in the morning instead.
Me: No need to waste a weekend.

I find your logic to be flawless.
LOL! I agree - you'll eventually get the license anyway but there's no guarantee for tanning weather once september rolls around!
Fucking hilarious! And does this mean we can get marriage licenses Saturday mornings? Because I was worried about having to take off from work. Might need some details from you on that one. :-)
Good words.
