Yeah, shower. Cold shower. And then movie night with Damiano siblings.

Me: I’m going to the thing on Friday after all.

Linc: !!!!

Linc: Why aren’t you answering?

Me: We’re watching a movie.

Mila: You and Emerson?

Me: And Chris

Linc: Damn I want to be in the middle of those two. Lucky Bitch.

Linc: You say potato, and I say penis.

Mila: I can picture Gianna’s face right now.

Linc: The eye roll, right?

Mila: Wait did we figure out who the date is?

Linc: It’s hot roommate.

Mila: Is it? I thought he wasn’t going.

Me: I will come to you – seriously - see you tomorrow.
