I'm clearly out of dark brown sugar

This afternoon, I decided to label the lids of our clear containers that hold our baking ingredients.
So I printed out labels, turned them into a sticker and was in the middle of putting them on the
lid of each container, when the furnace guy came upstairs, having finished our pre-scheduled
furnace tune up. He was giving me all the information on how our furnace looked, but stopped
in the middle of what he was saying to comment on our robo vacuum that was making the rounds.

He mentioned that his mom had just bought one for Christmas and I told him I loved our
particular one, because it was inexpensive and had lasted us forever. He then told me that his
mom is kind of obsessed with theirs and follows it from room to room. That made me laugh
and he followed up with, "But my mom is one of those crazy people." I told him that while I don't
follow our vacuum around, I could completely relate because I was also one of those crazy people.

He then looked at me, look down at the baking containers and replied,
"Yeah, I kind of could have told you that considering you're labeling your flour."

On my word, I cannot quit laughing. I have no idea why it is so funny to me when
people are so blatantly honest (without being unkind or mean). It's not like
he was wrong for sure and the way he said it, was kind of the best.

Because I am most definitely crazy. And I do currently have baking flour
that is labeled. And both of those facts kind of make my entire day.
