Ice hoarder

I played a funny on Jed, except I was the only one who thought it was funny. . . .which is all that matters.

I knew we were going to the lake on Sunday, so on Saturday I started taking the ice from the ice bin and dumping it in a plastic sack. Why you might ask? Because the store near the lake is closed, and there's no where to buy ice. That's why.

So I was being super proactive and frugal, by hoarding ice for two days so we'd have enough to fill the cooler and keep our drinks chilled. Being I'm the only one in this house who thinks further out than 20 seconds at a time, I'm also the only one that knew I was doing this.

Meanwhile, Jed came inside and wanted to make iced tea. He stood at the ice maker and waited and waited and waited...."hmmm, not much ice" he says. "Oh, bummer," I say. And exit the room.

A few hours later he tries to fill his glass with ice. "Still not much ice, wonder if the ice maker is broken?"

I'm pretty good at acknowledging that he is talking, without really responding. . .

So the next day he left and I filled our cooler with the lovely ice I'd hoarded for two days, and my beverages were perfectly chilled. Success! That evening after he failed to show up at the lake, which by the way, he blew off to go rope. Rope, rather than spend an afternoon with his ENTIRE family, not to mention his WIFE and CHILDREN. No, I'm not bitter. Anyway, that evening when I got home and we were getting ready for bed, I said, "by the way, the ice maker is working fine."
Jed: What?
Me: I've been hoarding ice
Jed: What?
Me: Ya know yesterday when you tried to make tea and there was no ice, then later you wanted ice for your water and there still was no ice. Yeah...I'd been dumping it all in a sack to put in the cooler.
Jed: You asshole.
Me: At least I'm still smarter than you
Jed: I'm so sure....you didn't even say anything when I was trying to make tea
Me: I know, cuz you would have stolen my loot.
Jed: You asshole.
Me: Bahhahahahahahaha
