Me: “Now that I’m losing some weight, I think maybe I’ll start lifting weights again. If I got a little definition in my shoulders and arms, I’d consider some Viking tattoos.”
Wonderful Wife: “What kind of weights? I’ll go buy them right now.”

Little Miss Thing, age 6: “I want to be an adult.”

Me: “You got me. Being an adult really is awesome.”
