A reply to Eva DV:

I sincerely appreciate your approval and I respect your relationship with My Ben, but, Eva, the constant phone calls, the messages, the emails and IMs have to stop. Now, I understand that once you go TJ you never go back, but, please, you're tearing up my heart - which belongs to only one.

Really, I'm kind of happy to have strengthened the Ann Arbor connection. It's quite harrowing trying to win over the friends, you know? Especially friends with such a long, frightfully incestuous history. But if I can banter with the ho (I mean that lovingly, dear), then I feel like I'm in the clear.

Hi hi hi Ben! Hi Marion! Hi Kate! Hi Graham! And, of course, hi my darling Eva!
