The Stabbing Pen

I’m not the most popular person in the universe.  But even so, I have to pretty frequently erase text messages from the inbox on my phone, in order make room for future texts.  Sometimes I find it challenging to actually pull the trigger and delete certain messages from friends.  For example…

- a drunken text from someone telling me I’m near the top of their “favorite people list”

- a text from someone while a random girl he just had sex with will soon emerge from the bathroom

- a concerned/sarcastic text from someone telling me not to drown myself in the pool
