Because....

....drum roll....

....because we're not coming out for the 4th of July....

...and gave a "maybe" on coming out that weekend.

Yeah.

So he told my wife I'll catch his fade when he sees me.

I'm still deciding on whether this is more extreme than uninviting me to Thanksgiving giving for telling him to give it a rest after two hours of blowing my phone up with laughter emojis over the cold start to Zo's rookie year.

It's not as hilarious as the time I first met him, also on Thanksgiving, and he told me the story of what he and his friends did to my wife's last boyfriend.

That story was a slightly modified version of the ending to Alpha Dog, a movie I at the time owned, which was itself based on actual events near us.

Yes, he even used the Palm Springs location.

Needless to say, none of that ever happened.

This should be fun. I should probably start jogging at least so I don't get winded.
