Wrinkle in Time

So I'm telling mr. delagar about the "Ripple in Time" thing, while we're hanging around Books A Million, which is the closest thing to a book store that Fort Smith actually has.

He gets this wistful look in his eyes.

"What?" I ask.

"I had the biggest boner for Meg Murry when I was a kid," he said.

"Well, who could blame you," I asked.

He looks over at me then, startled.

"What?" I said.

"Goddamn it," he said, astonished.

"What?"

"Goddamn it. I married Meg Murry. Didn't I?"

I grinned at him. "Heh."

"I can't believe this," he said.

"Lucky you," I pointed out, and strolled off to look at the science books.
