“How lovely,” I responded.
“Not really. I’m stuck in telesales and have no money. The dream sucks. You know how it is.”
I was going to point out that I actually have a fabulous new job and enough money to splash out on dinner at Cocoon this evening, so I don’t actually “know how it is” but the New Me decided this would be inappropriate.
