What Did You Say?

Had this conversation with hubby recently:

P: "Did you know that cats in the wild eat dirt to kill themselves when they get sick?"

L: "Eww, that's horrible! Don't tell me that!"

P: "Horrible, why is it horrible?! I think that's pretty smart of them."

L: "Smart?! I don't want to hear about cats dying. . ."

After a few confused rounds, I finally realized what hubby had actually said was, "Did you know that cats in the wild eat herbs to heal theselves when they get sick?"

Ha, ha, I thought that was funny.
