How to miss out in life, part 1/?

Something I overheard from two passing blond chicks young women near the train station:

"He came in, took one look at my espresso machine, and ran away again."

What???

My brain reconstructs the following story: she invites him for coffee and all that entails; he thinks the machine in charge of making the coffee isn't good enough for his highly exacting standards, and as a consequence forgoes the "all that entails" part as well.

Stupid fellow; it was a perfectly acceptable blond chick young woman.

Even if the espresso machine had been a thoroughly rotten birthplace of new universes as the one belonging to nazgul_nr_5's dirtbags is, he could always have asked for water...

I got lucky!!

They had "Going Postal" at Hugendubel; so I am now taking to my sofa in order to read it.-

The cover has two "black dogs with orange eyebrows" on it - now I finally get to know what that notice in "Men At Arms" was all about. I noticed, because of Q, the Metropolitans' dog. And the inside of the cover has stamps from Ankh-Morpork. I am so going to put that on the scanner and start using it for all sorts of things...

Yes, and a happy Soul Cake Tuesday to everybody who knows what that is.-
