One way to be less annoying

If I ask you about your day, I really just want to know if it was a good day or a bad day.

I am not interested in every mundane event that occurred.  If something remarkable happened, 

by all means, tell the story.  If, however, you just had another day in the coal mine, tell me it

was just another day in the coal mine and be done with it.  I had a day of my own, full of
unremarkable events that constitute everyday existence.  I'll spare you mine if you spare me yours.
