Spark

Me: “In his e-mail he said there was no je ne sais quoi, but that we could go out again if I wanted to.”

She: “What does he want, instant spark?”

Me: “I wasn’t feeling very sparky last night – combination head cold medicine and wine, you know. It would’ve taken a sensitive spark-o-meter to pick me up.”

She: “The inner flame was burning low?”

Me: “Well, it’s not like he used that French on me at dinner! Give a girl a chance, sheesh!”
