Dana was indignant when I told her that my ex-girlfriend’s mac and cheese was better than hers. Dana and I weren’t together. I know that I would have been sleeping in the backyard had I said that to my wife. But Dana, already being very crushed out on me (without me knowing it) was hurt. Really hurt that she covered up with humor, telling my ex-girlfriend when we saw her at church.
She looked at Dana and said, “I think Leslie likes the package that comes with the mac and cheese.”
This was quoted to me by Dana for the next seven years.
I was just trying to pay my ex-girlfriend a compliment… and Dana, too, actually.
Because thanks to the pair of them, my mac and cheese is my favorite.
And I’m starting to like the package that comes with it.
