Me: Hey honey, what do you think if I run to the library tonite? I have a video on hold that Jeana told me about. It might be helpful if Hannah is still sick tomorrow.
Hubby: Sure. What is it?
Me: It's a Rogers and Hammerstein version of Cinderella. Mikhail Gorbachev is in it. (Realizing he wouldn't know who Gorbachev is, I explain...) He's a dancer.
Hubby: (Looks puzzled) Mikhail Gorbachev???
Me: (as lightbulb goes on) I mean Mikhail Baryshnikov!!!
Hubby: (Never one to pass up an opportunity to capitalize on my blunders) Gorbachev....does he play the wicked stepmother? Who plays Cinderella? Yasser Arafat?
