Today, I went to Home Depot to buy some flowers for my outside balcony. After wandering around for a few minutes, I found an employee and had the following conversation:
Home Depot Employee: "Can I help you find something?"
Kate: "Um, yeah, I'm looking for some idiot proof flowers."
Home Depot Employee: "Have you bought any flowers before?"
Kate: (While turning my back on the flowers and speaking in a low voice) "Actually, I got to be honest...I've killed a few of these guys in my day...I guess, I'm just here looking for my new victim." (Cue awkward laugh and glance away.)
Home Depot Employee: (Turning his body to shield the plants) "Um, have you thought of plastic flowers?"
Come on...not a little funny?

You sound exactly like me and my husband. I couldn't keep it alive if I had Martha Stewart in house. I am surprised they haven't banned us from H/D.
And yes, it is very funny. Although I hate plastic flowers. heehee
