Sometimes the speed of life outstrips my ability to keep all informed of current events.

LondonPal: So we’re in town this weekend and I hoped we could all get together at some point.
Me: Fab. That would be excellent.
LondonPal: What’s your boyfriend’s name again?
Me: [Trying to figure out to whom he was referring] Oh, that would be Ex.
LondonPal: [In an about as unsurprised manner as possible] Really?
Me: Yep.
LondonPal: So the legend lives on….
Me: I wouldn’t say legend. I would say the train wreck that is my personal life. Someone greased the tracks recently.
