Last night, Spouse and I were in bed watching The Walking Dead, when we had this conversation.
Spouse: I love you, but if you zombie out, I am not letting you eat my brains.
Me, very serious like as I turn towards him: I would totally let you eat me. THAT's true love.
Spouse: Yeah, but you'd just be a light snack.*
I totally made that last part up, because I don't remember his response, but like, here's the deal. Does that mean he thinks* that I'm skinny, or that my brain is not a full meal?
And by thinks, I mean fictionally, of course.
If I had said that (I totally didn't) I would be saying you're skinny. No sense angering a future zombie prematurely, right? Would suck if you actually sought me out as your first victim.
ReplyDeleteI think my actual response was far less interesting. Something like: that's nice, but I'm still keeping my brains.
I think about that first episode of walking dead a lot, where the guy's wife shakes the knob of their door but can't get in and shambles off, and he wants to pull the trigger but can't. It's a well thought out show.
ReplyDeleteWe had never seen the show before. I've been hearing good things about it (well, better things about season 1 than season 2) for awhile now. That scene at the door you were describing though when the guy is looking through the peep hole? that was pretty creepy.
ReplyDeleteAlso - I can't believe my wife didn't save this piece of sentimental awesomeness for Valentine's Day. I mean, it is all about what True Love is...
