Ben looked at me strangely and said, “What’s wrong with you?” I shook my head and said “Nothing!”

He looked down at his hand where he was counting the possibilities on his fingers and looked back at me with the same mock-incredulous look I’ve loved for many years. And then, one of these:

We busted up laughing and I asked if I could blog that. He thought about it for a second before approving… and there you have it.
