Our convo on the way home:

 

Sha: Today wasn't so bad. We didn't kill each other.

Me: I know, we're ready for the Amazing Race.

Sha: What?!

Me: We found twenty cakes, ran a marathon, ate ten shrimp, did handstands, and covered a ton of miles. I think we're ready.

Sha: I think we'd definitely be picked when they saw how we reacted when we got angry.

Me: Yeah, we'd never get picked. They'd have to bleep out every other word.

 

Maybe if we clean up our language, we'll be on the next Amazing Race? And we'll have the #cakewaytothewest to thank for it!
