A few weekends ago I was in my parents' basement checking out something my dad was building when I noticed a cool old suitcase that I'd never seen before.
Me: Hey, I like this old suitcase!
Dad: Yeah, my accordian's in there.
(pause)
Me: That was not the way I expected this conversation to go.
a) I love old suitcases b) I love finding old musical instruments (in fact I even have recurring dreams where that's a theme) c) You didn't know your dad played accordion? It's a family secret! d) Your conclusion? Brilliant!
