i just heard a really good story

This morning I'm in the kitchen making a cake for break the fast when my roommate Heather rolls upstairs and says, "Do you want to know what my life has come to in the past 12 hours?"

Yes.  Yes I do.  Heather always has good stories.  So last night she was out with some of her girlfriends and runs into the best friend of an old boyfriend.  This old boyfriend has been one of those on again off again never ending nightmares that we can all sympathize with.  Heather and the best friend end up making out at the bar (I personally think the old boyfriend deserves for her to systematically make out with everyone of his friends).  

As the night comes to a close the friend offers to take Heather home.  She gets into his car and after a bit realizes they are not headed to our apartment.  He claims they are going to stop by his place first then he'll take her home.  She insists that he go to her place first or just let her out there and she'll find a different ride home.  He keeps driving and they end up at this house way way east of Portland.  She verbally punches him in the face and sleeps on the couch.

This morning she wakes up before everyone else and is desperate to get out of there.  She begins rifling through mail in search of an address for the house and finally finds the address outside on the electricity meter.  Heather calls a cab and the cabbie is like wow you're way out there that is going be an expensive cab ride.  Suck.

Heather walks over to the couch, removes the friend's wallet from his sleeping person, and grabs a wad of twenties.  Then she picks up his cell phone and deletes her number from his phone along with all of his text messages for good measure (she can't remember if she's sent him a text or not).  The cab comes, Heather leaves, and even ended up with an extra $20 after paying for the cab.

I would have given anything to be there in the morning when he woke up, found she was gone, and  realized that he could no longer call her.  Hopefully he'll assume the missing cash was spent on booze he just can't remember.
