Something Up His Sleeve

Today we walked into the city to find the Mercedes Benz parts shop so The Swede could fix the headlamps on the ol' Smart Car, a chore that is becoming more and more relevant as the daylight hours are quickly getting shorter.  Despite the masterpiece of a map he drew on a piece of loose-leaf before we left the house and because of some shady directions en route, we found ourselves lost.  After a few phone calls for directions and some pacing around the city we sat down on a bench.  I thought this expression was frustration, but moments later Papa Swede rolled up in the Volvo to rescue us and The Swede had totally planned it without telling me.  Now I know: this look is self-satisfaction.
