A similar IM from my wife would go like:
bracketswife: there’s some sort of fluid leaking from under the Jeep
bracketswife: I just jacked it up, and found a front differential pinion seal leaking
bracketswife: would you mind bringing one home from the shop
bracketswife: I’ve already gotten the front driveshaft out
bracketswife: I’ll probably mow the lawn in the meantime
bracketswife: oh yeah, while we’re at it, let’s install a better exhaust
