In all of our married life, Mike and I have taken MANY MANY road trips. On most occasions, I am the driver and this is for two main reasons - Mike drives WAY too slow for me AND he is always working or reading on the road.
However, like MOST of our road trips, Mike always gets side-tracked with my music. He loves to play this game: "What's the name of this song" to which I reply "I don't know, I need more than just one note"; "Who sings/sang it" and yes he means originally, to which I reply "You mean this is NOT the original"; "What album is it on" and on this I have NO earthly idea; and sometimes even "Who wrote it" and again I have no earthly idea.
We were driving to Alva, OK and back last week. One the way there, Mike played his games about my music. About 30 minutes outside of Alva Mike decided to give me a break (this after over 30 years of marriage). He told me he would not ask me any more music questions, he would just TELL me the music trivia.
Three hours, and a nice lunch with his sister, later we are driving home. Probably 10 minutes outside of Alva, the radio is playing a song and he states "JUST in case you wanted to guess, WHO this is, WHO would you guess?". Of course I KNEW this had a double meaning:
1) He is NEVER going to give up on this game OR me!
2) He is almost ALWAYS going to give me a hint one way or another in his game - yes the song was sang by the Guess Who.
I sure love Mike!
Until later
