“Dear PoPville,
Breaking from my usual work commute habit, I went to Krispy Kreme to pick up some doughnuts and then caught the red line into work. She ran to get on the same metro car as me and sat right across from me. After finally getting up the courage to ask her if she was going to or from work, my stop arrived. (more…)
