Roxie: Get your mind out of thegutter, Dunn

Chris: Never

It’s burned in my mind now. Thelogistics are…fascinating

Seriously, you should look into playing or coaching. There’s noneed to give it up

It’s not WNBA or bust

Roxie: I liked you better whenyou were in college. You never gave me a hard time aboutbasketball

Chris: Cause you couldn’thandle it then. You can now

Roxie: So dunnoying

Chris: That’s me

Roxie: Chris

Chris: Yeah?

Roxie: Are we friends?

Chris: I think so. Why?

Roxie: Then how come we neverstayed in touch after you and Amy broke up?

Chris: I don’t know. I wantedto. But I got the feeling you thought I was a nuisance. You know,Amy’s annoying boyfriend whom you had to tolerate because you livedthere

Roxie: LOL I did thinkthat

Chris:

Roxie: Or I thought I wassupposed to think that

But I genuinely enjoyed spendingtime with you. We had lots in common. I think you’re the person Itold the most about my struggles to catch up with theschoolwork

You’re definitely the person Iplayed most video games with

Chris: Well then I am sorry wedidn’t stay in touch, but maybe it’s for the best

We can hang out as much as we likenow

Do you still play any of the gameswe played in college?

Roxie: No, haven’t inyears

We should get some new games toplay

Actually I should probably buy thenew console, too

Chris: What have you been doingfor fun then?

Roxie: Strange men

Lots of reading, gym, going out,friends, and wasting time online

But mostly strange men
