Be Nice To Me
Missed Connections in Bloomington
I really like you.
A lot. I think you’re great, in fact!
You’re smart, funny, and totally crazy-cat-lady in a way I find charming, rather than creepy.
But if you ever stand too close to an elevator shaft wearing those deliciously fabulous purple shoes from that outlet in Louisville, I will not hesitate to push you down it…
albeit AFTER I take your shoes.
I’ve killed for less, my friend. Much less.
So yeah. You should consider trying to make yourself a little more personable so that there’s better reason for me to keep you around.
*Hugs*
Our missed connections featured location for today is Bloomington, IN – and I never would have taken it for a rough-n-tumble place where folks get pushed down elevator shafts for a pair of shoes! Proves there’s something to be said for the expression, “Keep your friends close, your enemies closer, but your frien-emies closest.” Let’s hope our poet is one prone to sarcasm…
