Well after over a years-long recess, it's back!
It began this year, with Misty, a friend of Erin's (now, i'm happy to say, my friend too!) informing Erin that she had found "THE MAN FOR YOU".
Apparently Misty had worked at camp with him over the summer, and she discovered that he was funny, kind-hearted, dramatic... basically, the male version of Erin! And, unlike myself, who is a candidate for "opposites attract", decided this was the perfect man for Erin.
Well this guy goes to school with us as well now. We see him from time to time (one of the most memorable being when he almost hit Erin with his bike!), having never been formally introduced however, we do not speak.
Though we do speak about him.
This guy became the topic of numerous conversations between us.
Originally he was called "Erin's Pretend Boyfriend"... but this became a bit long, and when talking in front of the uninformed, and public, we received a lot of strange looks. So, i decided that it was time that "Erin's Pretend Boyfriend" got a name.
And so he was named, Mario Licci.
We (well more so Erin) felt more at ease using this name then his previous title.
Mario has become the chief character in many of our anecdotes. A few have been let in on our code, though even they have been known to get confused. One friend in particular thought that Mario was his real name- honestly, whoever insists boys are observant must be on some sort of hallucinogen !
Since then, Erin has met Mario a few times.
The most memorable of them being their first meeting!
It went something like this: Mario stopped in front of our house with his ghetto van, opened the back, and helped Erin jump into a seat-less back seat, before quickly driving off like a maniac, while Erin held on in the back, praying for her life!
He he he... a great first impression!
Though our conversations about him have transformed into somewhat less-creepy varieties, his name(s) have remained.
~the game may have changed, but the name's the same~

Nocab!!! Been a long time since I have been reminded of that... Almost as good as 'Ahem', 'Ahem - Ahem' and 'Ahem Ahem Ahem'. Ha ha.
