A small pig flying with a snowball…through Hell

Me:  Ok, I’m ready to go to the Y…where’s our daughter?

Wife:  She’s going upstairs to take a coffee break [nap].

Me:  What do you mean?  We were going to go swimming after lunch.  I told you that.  Why did you send her up for her coffee break?

Wife:  I didn’t.  She told me it was time for a coffee break.

Me:  Come again?

Wife:  She started heading upstairs while you were getting stuff from the basement.  I asked her where she was going and she told me that it was time for coffee break and that she was going upstairs.

Me:  You told her that she would do coffee break after the Y?  And she just got confused?

Wife:  No.

Me:  You gave her the choice of going to the Y or taking a coffee break?

Wife:  No.

Me:  You told her it might be a good idea to take a coffee break instead of going to the Y.

Wife:  No.  She decided it was coffee break completely on her own.  No prompting on my part whatsoever.

Me:….I don’t….I don’t believe you.

Wife:  It’s true.

My perception of the world is shattered.
