In the car on the way to Trader Joe's to get tonight's dinner:
Wife: Well, I haven't gotten my period yet... keep your finger crossed.
Me: .... okay....
Wife:.... are you sure you want a baby?
Me: Of course.... Yeah....
Wife: Look me in the eye and tell me you want a baby.
Me: Not while you're driving
Wife: Come on... you know what I mean.
Me: YES I want a baby... it's been ten years... it's now or never!
Wife: Why do you want one?
Me:...?..... Why? Because I want someone to come visit me when I'm old...
Wife: That's a horrible reason!
Me: Oh come on, in your culture, people have kids so that someone will take care of them when they're old... I just want them to visit. You know... in the retirement home...
Wife: What about creating a new life... you know... from both of us.... parts of us combining to make something new.
Me: .... that sounds like Frankenstein
Wife: You suck.
