Ana had found a stray coin, so she got the whole bag of them down. And then she goes to me...

Ana: Connie, I'll say "Where are the coins?" and you say "I don't know!" Where are the coins?
Me: Uh... in the bag!
Ana: No, you say "I don't know!" Where are the coins?
Me: I don't know they're in the bag.
Ana: Nooooo. You say "I don't know!" Where are the coins?
Me: You don't know.
Ana: *giggling* No! Say "I don't know!" Where are the coins?
Me: I don't know.
Ana: Thank you. *walks off*

The conversation could have ended there. In a million other worlds, it did. But in this world... Me: Hey! Aren't you going to tell me where they are?
Ana: I'll give you a hint. They're in something red.
Me: Uh, uh, uh - EVANGELINE'S SHIRT!
Ana: No. That's a good try, but it's not... it's not ri- it's not...
Me: Good guess, but that's not it?
Ana: Yeah, good guess, but that's not it.
Me: *waiting* Can you give me another hint?
Ana: Okay. They're in something red... that has coins in it!
Me: WHAT? No, give me another hint! Please?
Ana: *sighs and shakes bag* Do you hear that, Connie? What is that?
Me: The coins are in the bag!
Ana: That's right! Do you want to see them?
Me: Uh, okay.
Ana: I can't show you, though. It's a secret.

And thank you, Liz. I always knew I sounded freakish to you :P
