Upspeak

So far the service has been lovely from our insurance company, the rental car place, and the body shop. It's been super easy, dropping the car off, picking up the rental, and simply signing here, initialing here, and here are your keys, thanks!

Tomorrow I pick up the police report and fax it to my insurance agent. Then the race is on to see what finishes first: the car repairs or the claim. I really don't want to pay the deductible AT ALL, even if it will be reimbursed.




The latest phrase around here is "What does that mean?", usually used in response to some attempt at a double entendre or innuendo. For example, watching Ice Princess today the character who is in love with the lead drives out to her pond in his Zamboni, and I said "oh, he's going to Zamboni her ice!" and The Earner just looked at me (the phrase was implied). And then Teddy asks her, "Medium smooth, or Glassy?" and we lost it. What does that mean, indeed!

Because that's the kind of couple we are.
