Update Of The Update (this is the one you've been waiting for)
Alrighty sports fans, ready for some fun? I was getting ready for work this morning when the phone ring. Only one person calls me in the morning before work, so when I answered I already had my excuse ready for why I was running late. Oh, if it was only that easy.
It was T.B. She was calling from Florida where she was on vacation with her sister and mother. I asked what was up and she hemmed and hawed for a bit and then came out and said
"You have traded emails with somebody that you thought was me, but wasn't me."
Ok kids. Let's run down the theories that have been presented in this public forum.
A.) She wrote to tell me she was getting married and not to email because she really WANTED me to email her.
B.) She wrote to tell me she was getting married for the benefit of her current beau.
C.) She wrote to tell me she was getting married to show me that she had moved on.
Apparently, the correct answer was D.) None of the above. It seems that when she went on vacation, her sweetie thought it prudent to hack her computer and delve into all of her old emails. Seeing that I had told her not to visit me again, he concluded that we were seeing each other on a regular basis (I'm guessing that he uses to much crystal meth). So......he thought it was a good idea to send me a message in the guise of T.B. Naturally, when I responded with the obligatory "good luck, but I hope you aren't making a mistake" and "call me if you want to talk" he went ballistic and has been calling her non stop wanting to know what the story is.
He is what I like to call a "fisher." He implies that he knows more than he does and this entices his conversation partner to open up. Kind of a "well, he already knows most of it anyway" trick.
So, for somebody that prides himself on being in a "drama free" zone, I seem to have stepped right in the middle of it this time. I told her that I was sorry for causing trouble, but reminded her that I said this would happen. She replied that he had been told that she was on vacation and didn't want to deal with this right now and his response was to threaten to call ME! Sheesh, I didn't like eighth grade the first time. When I got home from work, my caller ID notified me that a local attorney's office had called but they didn't leave a message. I have know idea if the two are connected. Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion that is sure to come.

Wow, it's better than Friday's episode of Days of Our Lives. Of course I say that as I am not the one involved in the quagmire. Interesting twist, my friend. I didn't see it coming.
I guess all I can do is wish you well. Blame it on all your criminal twin. He must be good for something. Then you can move away to somewhere appealing and start a new life - free of TB, her absolutley stable fiance and that bastard who dares share your name. Maybe your trip to St. Louis will become a permanent move. Regardless, I will sit on the edge of my seat (I will get up now and again to pee) and await the outcome.
It's pretty ironic to read this post NOW.
