between calls (Thank You For Calling Victoria's Secret) (This is Misti) (How May I Help You?) I placed the five singles you gave me for the vending machine in my black velcro wallet and noticed there was a message scrawled on the back of one of them You Will Have a Great Week If You Write This Message On Five Bills this worried me because I'm irrational and superstitious I was pleased at first but after I read the disclaimer I thought Shit, I Only Have Four Bills Besides This One then I remembered the night we were walking down the path beneath the stars discussing numbers your favorite number is 4 and mine is 8 you said people who favor odd numbers are mentally ill and I disagreed reminded you how cool 5 is and for reasons that I forget 7 is the most spiritual number the number of Jesus Christ the number of Pisces, the Fish I don't know why so I decided to make my own rule, as always and on the back of the four remaining bills I wrote You Will Have A Great Week If You Write This Message On Four Bills I should have just wrote You Will Be Blissed Out Beyond Belief For Reasons Only You Know and left it at that I've never been good at numbers the Count Muppet on "Sesame Street" scared the hell outta me what a freak waxing rhapsodic over numbers I never understood it maybe that explains the hot checks and $20,000 student loan debt I will never be able to repay (have you ever been 30) (and been denied an Old Navy credit card) maybe that explains the unholy mess of who I have become I'm dumb and I know it I blow it just to show it who's really Boss. |
