Incredible feats of logic

B had a check-up with the GP today, and here is what happened after a while once he got back.

D: Hold off on the samosa order for tomorrow from Swati. We'll get to it when we're there.

B. Oh, are we going back there for lunch?

D: No, not necessarily there, but somewhere in the area. I thought we were heading out to Devon for lunch.

B: Oh..

D: What "Oh"? Where else did you want to go?

B: No, I assumed we were going to Grande Noodles, and that is definitely not in the area.

D: What? Grande? Thai? When did we decide that?

B: I thought I mentioned it this morning in passing and you said yes... Or something like that?

D: No way. YOU'RE the one that mentioned the thali at Mysore today…. What on earth are you talking about? Grande wasn't even a part of the conversation!

B: ………… (brain-wheels creaking on overtime)

D: WHAT?

B: Oh, I get it. When the doctor cleared out my ear wax this morning, you see..

D: What sort of an explanation is that? Are you trying to tell me that information was clogged in your wax, and once removed, it had no chance to filter in and register in your brain?

B: Uh huh. Yep. (delivered in a "obviously, d'uh" intonation)

D: Seriously?!

B: D'uh.

D: Okay, this goes on the blog.
