Characters: Myself (Milton), Joe, a man in a car, two police officers on bicycles.
Setting: I am speaking with my friend Joe on the cell phone while he drives home from work.
Joe: Wow, that's embarrassing - pulled over by 2 bike cops.
Milton: So I think I'll try calling her in a couple of weeks. There's a couple of other cute co-ops I can distract myself with.
Joe: HAHA!! Now they're pulling him out of his car!
Milton: I suppose I misplayed my game a bit, but I don't think its irreparable damage. Besides, I'm Milton, I'm the shit.
Joe: I guess he said something to them, pissed em off real good. But why didn't he just drive off?
Most couples report a high degree of happiness in their first years of marriage, a steep decline between the third and fifth years, then a slight rebound between the sixth and eighth years. After low points before the second decade and 25th anniversary, there's a happy ending: after 40 years couples report being as happy as the newlyweds.
Milton: Are you driving? That must have been a really long light.
Joe: Ya, it was a long light.
