Client asked if my prices went up because of inflation

Told her no, I don't do air mattresses. She paid the quote. I think mostly so she could leave.

I've been told my bedside manner is deflating. I've also been told to stop saying bedside manner to people dropping off footstools

the twins asked me what inflation was last week. I blew up a balloon and let it go across the kitchen. they now believe the economy is loud and ends up behind the fridge

Boring-money person here. I've tried to explain inflation at more dinners than I'd like to admit, and the balloon behind the fridge is the first version I'd actually steal.

you should knock a bit off memory foam though. it remembers what it used to cost

memory foam never forgets a price. that's why it sighs when you sit on it
