We’re eating at a chain restaurant. Italian. Big pepper mills and oil bottles with long dead chillies in them. I’m in love with the un-her now. The everything she isn’t. She suspects something.

I think we have all been there, waking up on a Sunday morning with a hazy glare in the eyes, rolling over the covers to see what you brought back last night.  This was my Saturday morning after an out of hand Summer party the night before. Hawaiian themed with an open…
