Me: “I can’t believe you’re bailing on me this weekend. All of you!”

He: “Yeah, sorry about that, but you’ll do fine. I found it easy to be entertained in New York on my own. There’s lots to do.”

Me: “True. I was thinking about taking the Sex and the City tour.”

He: “What’s that? Do they take you around the seedy underbelly of the city? Make you look in nudey bars?”

Me: “No, no, no. It’s a tour based on the show. They take you to where Carrie buys her Jimmy Choos.”

He: “What are those? Short, Asian men? That would make the tour!”

Me: “Shoes.”

He: “This tour sounds less and less interesting.”

Me: “I’m sure there are short, Asian men on the tour. I could get numbers for you.”

He: “No! I’m outta there on Friday.”

Me: “Okay, your loss.”
