When my brother called today (he calls every day), I decided it was time to mention Blaine, simply to enter him into the record.
So I said I had gone to the murder mystery dinner Friday night with Eve and Paul, who my brother has heard about before; Mica; "Blaine, a guy I've been going out with"; and his daughter, Allison.
There was silence, probably as he was counting to five, his way of "listening," and when he spoke again it was to tell me stuff about his work, all of which I'd already heard because he calls every single day, and I stopped speaking during those daily calls years ago.
But Blaine is on the record. I'm perfectly fine never speaking of him again.
