Overheard on IM

This absolutely fascinating conversation occurred between my husband and me this afternoon right after the FedEx guy dropped off a package for him. You have to understand that these midday conversations happen almost exclusively over instant messenger...

Me: What'd you order?

Husband: That's my/your new free phone.

Me: Oh, right. It's here.

Husband: Cool.

Me: So, you had to get this phone so you could swap the SIM with the one in your new iPhone?

Husband: Yes.

OMG. I couldn't believe it. I spouted a big long line of something that sounded just like gibberish and my husband responded as though I knew exactly what I'm talking about. Maybe I'll be able to fake it as a recent transplant to Silicon Valley yet!
