disaster planning

So my friend and customer M left today on a trip with a friend to Central America. She came in yesterday, chainsmoking her head off, panicked because she’s never flown, panicked because she can’t smoke on the plane, and panicked because what if I need time alone on the trip and what if it hurts my friend’s feelings and then what if she ends up hating me and such?

These are two women who’ve been friends for a long long time. Still, at one point, M paused, cigarette at her lips, and said, all morose, in her dry drrry deadpan:

“Well, baaasically … I’ve already planned on never speaking to her again once we’re home.”

Hahahahahahaha.
