Seriously?

Yesterday a nice middle-aged sales man came to our door. I answered the door and here's how the conversation went:

Him: "Are your parents home?"

Me: Smiling "Um no, they aren't here."

Him: "Do you know when they will be back?"

Me: "I'm not sure, probably not for a long time."

Him: "Thanks, I'll stop by another time then."

I couldn't keep from laughing as I shut the door. I didn't lie, my parents weren't home and I really don't think they will be back for a long time. At least it kept me from having to hear a sales pitch about some cleaning products.

That is pretty funny! You'll have to tell mom and dad about that; I'm sure they would get a kick out of it.
