"EVE WAS FRAMED." I recall the very first time I saw this bumper sticker on my way to campus one day, and I thought to myself, "Gee, I wonder if this girl ever gets tired watching all the people she sees in her rearview mirror roll their eyes?" Eve, my friends, was not framed, she swallowed the apple whole. Core. Seeds. Stem. And, I bet she loved it. She probably devoured the apple faster than that finicky freak of a monkey-boy Chris Kattan plays on Saturday Night Live. I recently received in an e-mail this bit of information:
Anyway, I also wanted to apologize for being so distant with you recently. I did suddenly start dating someone more seriously lately, and it is such that I probably won't be dating anyone else for the time being. So, I suppose I was just being unnecessarily awkward in bringing it up. Sorry about that. I don't even know whether you care all that much. However, I hope that it won't prevent us from contunuing to get to know each other because I think you're a cool cat, John. I really do...in fact, I have found very few people in my life that I can identify with as well as with you, spiritually and otherwise. That's
important to me. So, in hopes of not losing that, I'm very glad that we've arranged something where we can see each other regularly and not once in a blue moon. You dig?
Well, I don't dig...and I did care. I guess I'll survive.
