Wife to me (recounting her day at school) 'did i tell you about blah blah'...she blah blah....then blah blah...)and so on for 5 minutes.
Me..'Hang on, you were telling me about blah blah, and now we've moved on, you still havn;t told me what exactly the point was.
Wife..'yes, i was getting to that'...'blah blah blah'
5 minutes later...Me..'you've done it again, you moved it on to another subject...i still don't know the first point and now youve started a third story...and i don't know the point of the second story either
Or perhaps i just wasnt listening carefully enough ?
