I have a feeling that this is ALSO the product of being married to a pediatrics resident: Yesterday my husband got a package from a company called “Udder Covers.”
Me: Um, I’m a little curious about this package you got? From “Udder Covers?” What the heck?
Him: It’s a thing you wear to cover up while nursing! They’re supposed to be awesome. And they’re usually like $30 but I found it for $4! It was a great deal!
Me: Oh. Why’d you get this light blue one, they come in lots of cute colors and stuff. Oh, nevermind I’m sure you’re all BUT IT WAS $4!!
Him: Exactly! $4!
Me: Is this a gift for someone? Or are you planning to save it until we’re ready to have kids? OH MY GOSH IS THIS SOME SORT OF HINT?
Him: It’s not a hint. I’m going to save it. I’m ready to have kids whenever you are.
I mean, I know we need to have kids pretty soon so he’ll know what the heck he’s talking about with parents at work every day…But at the rate I was planning, he’s going to be saving this “udder cover” for the next year at the earliest! Though I guess I should never underestimate this man’s susceptibility to a “really good deal!” A man after my own heart!
