The future does bright after marriage :)

I guess one of the greatest advantages of being married for more than twenty five years is that you can learn the art of predicting the future accurately. Listen to this.

Mom calls up dad in the afternoon and wants him to verify about the warranty plan for a new exhaust fan that they have bought. Dad answers with a succinct yes and ends the call (my dad never believes in ending a call with any form of pleasantries) . My mom puts the phone down and tells me that dad's vehicle in his friend's place. The shop is in the opposite direction away from home. So, there's a very good chance that he would take the vehicle and come straight home and forget all about the warranty. He'll realize it only when she asks him about it. But he'll keep a straight face and tell her that the shop's closed (who's father is he anyway!). A bad liar and a gentleman that he is, he'll either confess that he lied and that he didn't remember till she asked him about it or say something else and get himself into trouble (who's father is he anyway!). All this will happen on Saturday. The shop will be closed on Sunday. He'll be on leave on Monday. Both of them will forget all about it till Wednesday. And if they are lucky remember it before Saturday and get it done.

Guess by now, you already know what really happened. This time when I came, I went and got it done.
