Jim's Invite

That morning I closed the browser, grabbed a breakfast bar, and headed out for class. Jim caught up with me on the way...He asked if I wanted to hang out with him and Vanessa and a few friends that evening. They had heard I was a decent bowler (probably from my blog) and wanted me on their team. I said I couldn't. I was already having enough trouble putting her out of my mind...

Then, I'll never forget what he said...

"Oh, how's your commitment going?"
"Fine. Thanks very much."
"What a shame. Vanessa's either heartbroken by it, or finds it irresistible. Either way, a lot of guys would love to be in your shoes."
"I suppose so. I wish they were."
"Magnus, I found Vanessa's blog. Don't worry, I found it on my own. My lips are sealed."
"She's making it up."
"Sure she is...we'll see you tonight..."

Did he really think it was real? Well, I decided to go bowling to clear this up. And, well, I'm not opposed to throwing a bowling ball now and then either.
