Mom: Hi, I'm calling to ask if you will bring a second suitcase when you come home.
Me: Absolutely -- for all the presents I'll get?
[uncomfortable silence]
Mom: Actually, I wondered if you would bring back some of that Christmas garland I loaned you.
Sorry I missed seeing you. Hope you had a good Christmas and have a happy new year.
