The Shower and My Siblings.

Background:

My elder brother and younger sister share a bathroom. I used to, but gave up. Now I am much happier. *Smile*

I was sitting in the hall when this conversation took place between my siblings in the kitchen, within earshot:

*some talk about who showers at what hour in the mornings before work*

Brother:      *something about how its his timing for the shower and she shouldn't be in the shower at that hour*

Sister:         Why should i come out when I was in the shower first?

Brother:      We have an agreement!

Sister:         Show me the agreement!

Brother:      It’s a verbal agreement

Me:             [internal mono-log]: my brother takes the prize with his response!

A few days later, I tell my sister that I heard her conversation with our brother.  And she says:

Me:             He really took the cake with his response that it was a verbal agreement

Sister:         Actually we have a memorandum of understanding ya? (though it was a question, it was more rhetoric and said with so much conviction that she had made a most capital point)

Me:            All you have is an understanding! No Memorandum!

Made me miss all my friends from law school. It seemed like one of those super lame law-student jokes we used to make.
