话说昨天我在这儿兴高彩烈的讲我怎样拿到一个笑容甜美的美眉的电话时,王平常同学就说了一句 "i'm not available",想不到竟然有可能一语成谶。
事情是这样的:昨天下午快下班的时候,跟我一起去做 presentation 的 steve 神经兮兮的跑进我 office 跟我说了一番话。
s: so u know kathy?
p: not really. but just between you and me, i was just gonna ask her out to lunch or something.
s: ohhhhh... she's kinda cute. but i heard she's kinda WILD.
p: wild? how? like what? parties a lot? smokes pot? what?
s: oh, hey, look at it, it's time to go, LATER!
p: *&$&$#&@&
那小子丢给我一肚子问号就跑了,我向他的背影行了个一指礼,决定动用我的线人。
p: hey, u know this girl kathy at our client XXX co.?
i: big eyes, good skin, rosy cheeks, face is a lil' on the chobby side, right? wassup?
p: yah, that sounds like her. i got her number this morning. steve just came in and said she's wild. i dunno what that's supposed to mean.
i: ohhhhh. well, assuming we're talking about the same person, for starters, she's got a boyfriend. i ran into her in the mall last weekend, she's with a guy and she introduced him as her boyfriend...
p: ... thanks for breaking my heart.
i: that's not the whole story. during their company retreat in hawaii, she's been spotted sneaking into some guy's room at night.
p: ... you have been VERY helpful.
i: you asked. plus, we might not be talking about the same person. so you still gonna call her?
p: i'm sticking to the two-day rule. worst come to worst, it'd be another chapter in my book "50 disastrous first dates".
好了,事情就是酱子了。真是应了我自己的名言 "girls are like parking spots, there's a point where all the good ones are taken, and all that's left are handicapped."
