W picks son up from the bus stop. They come home and I'm grilling some food. W says she was talking to a friend of ours from down the street. The house across from him was sold, and 2 kids my sons age moved in. Then she says that the previous owner sold it for a $50 grand profit, and proceeds to excitedly tell me how it's a 'sellers market'. I just said 'that's cool'. Even the simplest conversations drive me nuts now. Ugh. She did then thank me for making dinner, and has made a little small talk.
