There is no deeper meaning. It's just a conversation.
me: shower power
glynn: I'm having thanksgiving in my shower, everyone's invited.
me: I'll bring turkey.
glynn: I lay down in my bathroom with three candles, eating.
Then I ran around my house, naked, looking for you (knowing you weren't there).
me: Sounds like you've been busy.
glynn: Yeah, it's hard work.

Assuming this is fiction (or even if it isn't, actually) ...

It's quite difficult to grasp the deeper message, when the conversation is so completely devoid of context.

"I'll take that little one, way in the back," I said.
"That little collie mix?" said the animal shelter guy.
"No," I said, "the one behind him."
"The gray terrier?" he said.
"He's gray," I said, "but way in the back, in the corner."
"You mean the water faucet?" he said.
I realized then it was a water faucet, but I didn't want to look like a jerk,
so I said, "Yeah, that's the one I want."
It ended up costing me almost five hundred dollars to get that faucet removed.
But you know, I've still got that faucet,
and I wouldn't trade it for any dog in the world.
