Do I like and appreciate this poet's work? Yes, in fact I do.
But is one of my favorite television shows on tonight? One with fiendishly complex plotting, one that I desperately anticipate each week? Yes, a brand new episode.
Do I, in fact, have DVR for just such occasions as these? Yes, I do.
Am I in attendance at the reading? No, I am not. Clearly.
And does the television show start in eleven minutes? Yes, it does. Actually, five minutes.
And will I be watching it? And will it all have been worthwhile? Yes. Yes, I will watch it and it will definitely--definitively--have been worthwhile.
this reminds me of a game that one of my colleagues and I play. We try to have conversations in only questions. Can you believe it? Do you think I'd be good at it? Why do I do this, you ask? Can you and I try it sometime?
ReplyDeleteROFL I love it!
ReplyDeleteLisa, you are fantastic.
I did not attend, but for other reasons, like it was Son's birthday. But did that prevent me from watching AI with Son? No, it did not.
ReplyDeleteI have met this conflict before and succumbed to the choice truer to my nature. Especially on a cold, Wednesday night.
