I'm doing the best I can

I was sitting in a bar the other day, waiting for my new romantic interest, The Artist, to join me.

She, running late in her taxi, was a tad concerned that I might be imbibing too heavily before her arrival, and sent me a text message recommending that I should "sip" my beer. She meant it in a very light & teasing way, I'm sure; but I pictured her saying it in a tone that was just sufficiently schoolmarm-ish... to be desperately sexy!!

I replied: "I AM sipping. It's just that the sips follow one another rather quickly."

The story of my life?? Everything's a metaphor with me!
