The Husband's Retort

"A mild retort. Or, at least a lukewarm retort", he says. 
"I'm not about you and your asterisks", I reply.

It's not cold-hearted, it's love. Amore in nerd disagreement.

(In continuation of the drone story from Yesterday...) "I think you are thinking you are at the Golden Gate Park figuring out how to use this so called drone, when Officer Sulu lands the captured Klingnon Bird-of-Prey Bounty. Instead of Starfleet officers disembarking the ship you see Coach Belichick and his drone army walking down the plank.", he says.
"Oh, my God. Yes!", I exclaim. "That sounds better than the idea of Jedi Jon Snow in Awakens."
I glance up as he gives me his quizzical brow. I giggle back at him. At the same time we tell one another, "God, you are such a dork". 

"Ha, I'm not the one who brought up Bounty".
"You are still hanging on to the notion that Snow is alive".
"He is on the season whatever poster". 

I cock my head and say, "Don't. I know what you are going to quote and please don't say it".

"Happy December 18th to you, happy December 18th to you.  Happy December 18th to youuuuu,  go Awaken The Force" - to the tune of... you got it. 

Why am I getting excited for December 18th? When my ticket for Awakens says December 17th?
