Imagine you had been told what to do for 2.5 years straight by one person. One totally righteous, in-charge, SOB who thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She knows what's hot, what's cold, what's dangerous, what's not scary, what's fun, what's appropriate, what's funny, what's for breakfast lunch and dinner, when it's bedtime, bath time, snack time, walk time, nap time, play time, clean up time.
Considering this, you'd think he'd kill me in my sleep, but instead he's just telling me what shoes I need to wear (strappy, high-heeled sandals and not running shoes) and how to push a stroller (two hands at all times). He also likes to follow most things I say with, "No." and then proceeds to tell me exactly the same thing I said either with or without a slight twist. As in:
R: "I think that squirrel is eating a nut."
I: "No! He's eating a peanut."
R: "Ah right, my bad."
