I was IMing with a friend
the other day and in-between discussing job interviews, Topper on TCM and house repairs, the topic of Virginia came up. I’d
said that if I get this next gig I’m interviewing for, I’d take a quick trip
back to the D.C. area at the end of July because a couple of friends are renewing their wedding
vows.
My friend, who also misses
the area, said that if she wins the lottery, she’ll go with me. And I urged her
to bring her daughter, too. Here’s how I left it:
“Okay—either of us wins the
lottery: 1)House repairs; 2)Virginia; 3)Everything else.”
But some hours later I
believe I might have twigged to the flaw in this plan, so I shot her another
IM:
“Say—about this
lottery-winning… Are you buying tickets? Because I’m not. And this may affect
our chances of winning. Um.”
But it’s okay—she replied
saying she’d buy one the next day. So all systems go.
