Scenes from a Sunday night pictionary match up.

Scene #1

The Brother: [looking at me] We obviously can’t be together.

The Mother: Why not?

The Brother: We would kill you and dad.

The Mother: Oh! It is on!

Scene #2

I am drawing and the Father is drawing. It is an All Play.

The Brother: Submerge.

Me: Yes! I can’t believe you got that so fast!

The Mother: [to the Father] What?? How was I supposed to get that.

We all look at the Father’s drawing of a submarine.

The Father: This was only the first part.

Me: Was the second part going to be the submarine being submerged in water?

The Father: No. I was going to draw two companies merging.

Blank stares from all.

The Mother: How were you going to do that, pray tell?

The Father: Two office buildings with arrows pointing together. You would have gotten it.

The Mother: Oh yeah right.

No one else comments because we are laughing too hard.

Scene #3

Game over. We all stare at the board.

The Brother: I hate to have to do this, but it needs to be said: I told you so.
