Minimus: Do you really think we'll find a coffee table for my apartment at this antique mall?
Me: I love this place! See? It's in an old train depot and has everything--antiques, vintage, fun junk. I bet you'll find something.
Maximus: I brought my list!
Me: Honey, it's not all about you today. I know that seems strange.
Maximus: But I brought my list!
Me: You knew we were shopping for things for Minimus's apartment when you agreed to come along.
Maximus: But I still brought my list!
Hubby: I hope everything isn't expensive in here. We're not spending a fortune on a coffee table.
Me: Let's just go in...
Minimus: Hey, it's pretty cool in here.
Maximus: I'm going to look for some things on my list!
Hubby: Geez, some of this stuff is expensive.
Me: We've gone a total of 17 feet. Minimus, just go look around and see if you find something.
10 minutes later...
Me: Where are you guys? What's so funny?
Maximus: Come here and look at Minimus!
Me: Wha..? Honey, what are you doing in a vintage clothing booth?
Minimus: Check out this shirt! It's vintage? I thought it was like Goodwill or something. It's cool!
Maximus: Bahahaha! It's terrible!
Minimus: It's cool. And it's vintage.
Me: It is kind of bad. Unless a 1974 middle management vibe is what you're going for.
Minimus: What? I like it. It's cool. And it's vintage. Oh wait, this blue one's better! Hey, check it out! A plaid sport coat with rhinestones on the shoulders!
Maximus: I have to get a picture of this. Go stand next to that mannequin head with the beret.
Hubby: What are you guys... Why are you wearing that?! I thought you needed a coffee table.
Hubby: It looks like a lot of the shirts you already have.
Minimus: But it's vintage.
Me: Let's just go look for a coffee table.
Minimus: Oh, I found one when we first came in. It's cool. And it's vintage.
