Goddamn if it doesn't happen. 'Cause she makes it happen.

One day one of the accountants comes over to me and he says to me, "Hey, Paul, what are you doing working for somebody else? Why don't you get a pharmacy or a drugstore yourself?" So I told Eleanor. And this is the way my whole life has been with Eleanor: I get an idea, I tell her, and goddamn if it doesn't happen. ‘Cause she makes it happen.

Very heartfelt short story. I really liked the matter-of-factness of the prose.
