And of course I knew that conversation would turn to dinner eventually. 
 
"You know what, I have plans," I told her. "I guess I knew that you would be in the city today but it just didn't occur to me..." 
 
"To think of me?" she interrupted. "That's okay, I get it," she continued. "I know how you are." 
 
She'd been waiting to use that line on me for a long time. 
 
For the record - it sounded better a few weeks back - when I used it on her.
