STBXMRSSP just called. Gosh. The Boy Himself isn't cooperating. He seems angry. Does he do these things XYZ with you?
No, can't say he does.
Why am I so lucky?
Can't say. Why not ask him?
He'll just say he hates me.
Maybe he does at that moment.
That's a really cruel thing to say.
I hear you say from your point-of-view that's a cruel thing to say. Anything else?
Why did you storm off this morning? I thought it went well.
If you don't know, nothing I can say will make a difference. Neither here nor there. Worlds colliding. Is there anything else?
It's because of European Capital, isn't it?
Goodbye, STBXMRSSP, I will --
[fast-talking]--But I've been really hurt about that for the past 10 days because it didn't work out, and since then I --
[Setting new ring-tone on mobile to make it go off] Oh! There's my cell phone! Work -- better take it. Goodbye. *Click*
So there you have it. No puzzle at all. Just like the first time, when she was in a mad rush to "see if there's a spark between us" after Signore 1 dumped her, her "no pressure" "just putting it out there" "anytime you like" "no expiration date" non-date-asking-out-on date-asking-out-on was apparently precipitated by being dumped by Signore 2, because "10 days ago" was January 21 and the putative Puzzle was January 22.
Sheesh! Do I have "consolation prize" stamped on my forehead or something?
