Pulling away from the drive-thru window, I ask Jim to check the bag for napkins. None. Usually we keep some in the glovebox, but our stash was depleted.
Fearing a greasy steering wheel, I turn to Jim and say sternly, "I just don't get how that's not a routine thing - to put napkins in a take-out bag!"
His immediate reaction, "You're teacher-voicing me!"
Whoops... didn't mean to teacher voice my innocent husband.
By the way, Jim let me use his sleeve as a napkin on the way home. #superherohusband
Ha! My husband hates it when I teacher-voice him too. I try not to do it very often, but sometimes, it just happens. I can completely relate to this story.
ReplyDeleteHA! My sister & I are both teachers and we call each other out when we use the teacher voice on eaach other. We let it go on other people.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I teacher voice all the time. Phil gets pretty mad about it, but then I come back with him using his customer service voice on me. I think it's just hard to shut it off! Great post!
ReplyDeleteOh, I teacher voice everyone! My cousins make fun of me all the time. It's a hard habit to break!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband appreciates my teacher voice until I use it on him :-)
ReplyDeleteTeacher-voicing me! ha! my family has given me similar comments!
ReplyDeleteand what a good hubby to offer his sleeve!
