Mildly entertaining stories of little importance

So the other day I put something in the microwave and I punched in the time and was about to push START when my mom came in. She looked at the microwave, and I looked at her, and we just stood there for a LONG time. She was waiting for me to start the microwave so the light would come on and she could see what was I was cooking. My finger still hovering over the button, I said, "You really want to know what's in here, don't you?"

She reached over and hit START, then looked in. Satisfied in knowing that I was heating up half an apple turnover, she went on with what she was doing.

Such is what happens when the overly nosy meets the needlessly secretive.
