I wasn't snooping. DW asked me to look at something. She wasn't receiving any texts yesterday.

This text convo happened last week between SS and DW, sometime in the afternoon while DW was still at work. I should ask DW how it is possible she is capable of texting SS during work hours when her office has strict policies against cell phone usage in the office.

Meh...

SS: Something wrong with lptop

DW: What? Not working?

SS: Something rolling around inside.

DW: The laptop fell on the floor 6 months ago. Could be a screw that came out.

SS: It sounds like a marble.

DW: I'll have a look when I get home.

SS: Did BS or BD put a marble inside the laptop?

DW: No! Why would they do that?

SS: I don't know.

DW: It's probably just a screw that came loose.

SS: It's not a screw.

DW: Okay fine. Is it stopping you from using the laptop?

SS: No.

DW: Then never mind. I'll look at it when I get home.

SS: But what is it?

From here on out DW refused to answer any more texts. I don't know how she does it.

If it were me, the conversation would have gone like this.

SS: Something wrong with lptop

Me: Oh! Well since it is an emergency. Run out into the street and cry for help! Do it now! Do it naked!
