Totally random post, but had to post it.
So heres my conversation with my neighbor yesterday, mind you my other neighbor is the exact same way. If you've ever seen the movie Extract, there you go!
Neighbor: " Hi, I found Frankie (my dog) out front" me:" Oh, he must have gotten out through the side gate" so blah, blah, blah. ok, here it is, me:" well thank you so much for returning him" (usually a cue that the conversation has ended) neighbor: (as he leans up against the wall, letting me know that he's not leaving any time soon) " so did you hear about Tom's dog" me: " ya it's sad, ok, well my baby is waiting for me to feed her so I'm gonna....", cut off, neighbor;" ya I had a dog when I was probably 12 or so, he was a lab, he used to get out all the time." (sigh), really? so, blah, blah, blah, the conversation goes on. Then (yay) my husband comes up behind me, and I see our neighbors attention turn to him, sweet thats my exit, I squeeze by my husband while nodding and saying uh-huh.
So, anyway, I just thought I'd share. Apparently there is no, for sure comment that will end a conversation, I could have said my house was on fire I gotta go, and he would have started up with a story about how his house caught on fire one time. And the funny thing is, this happens all the time with my husband and I and our 2 neighbors!
