Great Minds Think Alike

A funny thing happened today, so I thought I'd share.  Now, I know that Nate and I are usually on the same wave-length but this was above and beyond.

When I got off work I texted Nate because I was STARVING and was hoping to eat dinner a little early.  Nate called me back when he got out of the gym, but we couldn't decide what we wanted.  He said he was going to head home to take a shower so I just told him to call me when he was ready and we could both think about what we wanted in the meantime.

Well, since I have been working at the restaurant I have been really bad about eating (since I work shifts that work through lunch, I've been going too long without food).  So because I was hungry I decided I would make the executive decision to go to the store pick up all our favorite items for spaghetti.  My phone was charging and I thought, Should I text Nate to let him know I'm gonna pick this up?  Nah.  I knew exactly what he would say anyways... something along the lines of, "that sounds really good, actually."  So I went to Albertson's got all the goods and even picked up one of the hot Wheat French Breads from the bakery as a special  treat.  I checked out and headed home.

Sure enough, when I get home I have a couple of missed calls from Nate.  I call him back to give him the good news of dinner being handled...  BUT THEN...  When I ask where he is, he says, "I'm at Albertson's picking up stuff for spaghetti."  I would have stopped him but he was already checking out.  I mean really! Same executive decision, same dinner, same grocery store (we had to have been there the same time too!).  

I start cooking up the meat sauce.  Nate walks in a few minutes later with all the same ingredients, oh and one additional special treat - a hot Wheat French Bread!  

Like I said great minds think alike!
