You And I Are Very Different People Now

Impending Ex: "So, does [Friend of Mine With Uncommon Name] own an herb farm?"

Me: "Ah... I guess you could say that Friend has a partial share in an outside concern, but only receives shipments every few harvests or so..."

Impending Ex: "Oh, because I was picking up some thyme at the supermarket, and it was from [Friend's Name] Herbs. I was just wondering."

Me: "Oh my god. You're not talking about pot, are you?"

Well, I'm glad you've moved on from using that "green sweater" bullshit. Who wants or needs seven green sweaters? Who shares them? Who sells them to their friends? Is there like some sweater version of Avon (Swavon, perhaps?)? NO.

Try "CDs," as in, Can you bring over a few CDs to listen to? Yeah, if you've got that new CD I'll buy it off ya. At least bring it over so I can listen to it, too. Bob's bringing one of his albums but he always picks out the weakest music.

Wait a second... he WASN'T talking about weed!

"Impending Ex"??? Jesus, Jul!

I'll shut up now, before I get in trouble.

This makes me laugh so hard, and reminds me of conversations I used to have on the phone with a certain friend, both of us healthily paranoid. One in particular discussing whether I should bring a certain "friend" and whether I needed to bring his
"house," or maybe his "houseboat."

Houseboat...

But I love your response to the herb question. So murky, yet so clear. And I love that he was actually talking about herbs.

There's really such a thing as [Friend's Name] Herbs? What an awesome cover!
