T A T E She's pretty persuasive. Just not sure about work. Seriously we can talk to someone if needed. Oh wow, that's some big moves for both of them. Does he seem like a good influence?

R O S I E East Coast meeting times would be brutal in the morning. A very drunk me also said don't do it, so. No, it's fine, I just wanted to complain about it. And from what I've heard, yes, but she's also had horrible taste in the past so taking it all with a grain of salt. I'll see in a month or so.

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Drunk you is someone I hold in high esteem, so maybe. Complain away. That's tough, try not to worry about it until you've got a real reason to. No point.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E She's elusive, that one. I think sober me agrees with her though. I'm sure they'd be thrilled if they knew I was complaining to you of all people. You're right though - jury will stay out until I can actually meet the guy. Or they'll break up before I go back home, we'll see!

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E In vino veritas. They can cry about it. Right, the problem might just resolve itself.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Haha fine, I stand by everything I said. Can I ask an awkward favor though for when you're back? I almost told them I saved them a lot of money once, but I then would have had to admit I was the catalyst for it, too. Evened out.

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Of course, what is it? Why don't you work for a competitor?

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E I think I left some of my rings in your place that night, probably one of the guest bathrooms. If you or housekeeping finds them, let me know. Noncompete, an ugly one.

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Oh shit, anything the housekeeper finds she puts in one specific box, so I'll look when I get back. Or I can text her to bring them over to you. Ah, of course.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Whichever's easiest. A couple of them you got me so I just...I didn't mean to leave them, if that makes sense. I just forgot them. It's fine, I don't plan on being here forever anyway.

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Not offended. Might pawn them off, though. Feels like forever already.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Everyone wants a Spinelli ring now, that one alone might get you through the month. Flew for me, but not surprised when I barely come up for air sometimes. There's always next year!

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Good to know, know any pawn shops? Don't let yourself drown.

[rosie de la cruz]

R O S I E Yeah - I think there's one at 527 West 27th St, APT 5C? Someone might take it there. Do you ever get tired of saying that?

[tate mccarthy]

T A T E Yeah. Do you get bored of hearing it?
