I spent 2.5 hours one day last week and 1.5 the next searching for a belt. I wanted a brown one with a square buckle, there were many to choose from but somehow they all looked wrong. I ended up with a brown belt with a square buckle which looked pretty much like all the brown belts with square buckles I had looked at and it turned out to be just fine. So I can relate. To the polite nod too:
"If you've heard this boring story before why didn't you stop me?"
"I don't know, it wasn't really bothering me."
"I do that a lot, huh, Repeat the same boring stories."
"Well, yeah."
"How can that not bother you? They're not even stories, just trivial blather."
"I guess I figure you just need to talk."
Glad to hear you two aren't calling it quits.
Hmm? Did you say something, dear? I was in the other room petting your sniveling toxic cat who acts as much like an old man as his name suggests. Your new belt looks fine and I'll strike a deal: I'll listen to your stories on playback if you'll listen to mine, and interrupt me if I've already told you and you don't want to hear it again. Okay.
Holy cow, Lorina is a real person?
No, we're supposed to say that. Hi, Lorina.
