under the blanket

Because the bartender and I are seldom awake at the same time, even our SMSes have a significant time lag.

He messaged me on Saturday afternoon, after he spotted me on Friday night while he was working. Basically, he thinks my new China doll bangs are cute. [Don't even get me started on the old joke about banging the bartender.]

By the time I decided to stop ignoring him and replied in the evening, he was at work again on a busy Saturday night.

It is now Sunday and he replies with: "I'm off on Monday. Take a nap with me?"

I'll bet sleep is the last thing on his mind. Going back now to ignoring him.
