Do you ever have those conversations in your head about what you should have said when a particular incident happened? It's so much easier to think of what you should have said after the moment's over and you have to time to really think.
So I was rehearsing this morning what I should've said to the weird guy at my door last night. In light of the fact that we had a break in last week at the house, I was leery. I answered the door to find this guy I'd never seen asking if Phil was back in town. And let me clarify that there is no Phil who lives here, nor has there been in recent years. The guy's asking me if I'm new and I'm starting to wonder if he's just trying to case the joint. See who lives here. Size me up. He asks me for money, which I don't give him and I send him on his way.
Anyway, what I should have said was "Hmm, no I don't think I've met Phil yet. But I'll ask my boyfriend when he gets back. He might be one of his hunting buddies. He's a real good shot, you know."
