My new
girlfriend
told me
“I truly believe that
the secret to a long marriage
is separate bathrooms.”
I smiled because
that’s when I knew
this one was different
and when I told her
to get stronger toilet paper
and more air freshener
for her guest bathroom
because there was a new
bear in her woods
she said
“Safeway’s open until 11:00pm,
good luck with that.”
Be still
my beating
heart.
