My standard (smartass) answer to anyone who challenges a story as the truth is, "I wouldn't lie to you-you're not my husband".
My friend Rooster has the perfect line, "I never lie. I rearrange the truth to suit my needs".
I've been 'accused' of being too open and honest, especially with my opinions(it's gotten me in deep trouble more than once in my jobs); I probably lie more to myself about things in general. A purchase won't hurt us, I don't smoke that much, etc. And I always lie to anyone asking for me on the phone:"She's not here right now" or, to those fake cops looking for donations:" My husband is a police officer".
