PONTILICIOUS: Yes, I’d like to pay our auto insurance premium. Our account number? Shoot. I don’t have the bill in front of me. (slight pause). Wait. Let me see if I can remember it from last time. (randomly shoots off some long ass string of numbers). Is that right? (they say yes) Wow! That’s good.
ME: (interrupting) You’re really good with numbers.
PONTILICIOUS: I know I am. Isn’t that weird?
ME: No. I think it’s awesome. You should do something with numbers; like be a financial analyst or accountant. Or bet on horses full-time.
PONTILICIOUS: I should do something like that!
ME: Why are you so good at remembering random numbers?
PONTILICIOUS: I don’t know.
ME: Maybe you’re a savant.
PONTILICIOUS: I’m not a savant. What the hell.
ME: Okay. Maybe you’re just the idiot part. (now bent over dying laughing)
PONTILICIOUS: Thanks. The customer service rep just heard this whole conversation and had to put me on hold she was laughing so hard.
ME: I love you, Rainman. (continuing to laugh so hard tears are flowing)
This post is not meant to offend or cause harm. It was a lighthearted moment between me and my husband. Take it with a grain of salt. 
ha ha-too funny! Love when we can post about the hubbys in good humor. : )

I think the ‘idiot’ part is implied whenever one mentions ones husband.
(And I say this as the girl who just posted in her own blog that she once memorized over 500 telephone extensions so the ringing phone didn’t interrupt her reading)

Haha! Is this a guy thing? My husband can remember every bajillion-digit number or code we will ever, ever need. I forget my actual birth date sometimes!
