Funny, memorable family stories

Lately I've noticed a few more or less funny things that I always post quite succinctly on Mastodon. But hey, I thought, let's save this for the longer term.

As a result, I'll update this post every now and then if something funny pops up again.

1. The cyclist

We were traveling by car, following a cyclist. He swung his leg over the back of his bike, rode a little further with both legs on one side and then got off. (Very elegant in my opinion.)

My wife then said:

"Typical. Old men do that."

I explained to her that I've been doing that since I started cycling.

She then said

"that she had never noticed that before. Her father does that too."

I'm officially old now. πŸ§“

2. Approaching interest

I gave a larger workshop in the morning and my older daughter knew that.

When she came home from school, the appointment was over. The following then happened.

She asked me directly:

"Hi Dad, how did your appointment go this morning?"

I was extremely pleased that she showed an interest in me and my work, so I started to strike out.

"Great, I showed our intranet solution, we then discussed how..."

Suddenly I see the end of her ponytail swinging around the corner with the words

"I'm upstairs playing, bye bye!"
