Question

Each of the italicized phrases consitute a word in the solution.

A man comes home from work to find his wife waiting for him on the couch.

Wife: "Take a load off honey; stay awhile."

Wife: "I know you've had a long day at work, but I've got a preposition for you."

Wife: "And after that, I found an article that I know you read everyday."

Man: "Look babe, I'm a bottle of emotions right now. At work people keep telling me I'm completely starch. But I know I can be a fun guy too."

Man: "Somedays I just want to quit my job, move into a house on the river and look for gold."

Wife: "Well sweetie, I see you putting so much pressure on yourself. You'd think you were trying to invent the elevator or something."

Man: "I know, I know, I'm way too palindromatic."

umm where it says preposistion i think its gotta be proposistion so it could have something to do with an e or an o

Although I sometimes spell words incorrectly, I triple checked this one. Preposition is correct.
