If my mother didn't read this, I might have some words to say about Rebecca; instead, here's some more correspondence:

Brian I haven't heard from you and I wanted to see when you were gonna mail that check to me? I need to know since my brother will start looking for tickets and I need to get the money to him. He is trying to get back the states by the 31st of this month or maybe August depending on whats available. Ok well I hope you get paid this week cause you told me in 2 weeks. Thanks.

Email me please

And the reply:

Hi, Rebecca!

Sorry I haven't been so good about replying. Work's been really crazy this week. I hardly ever get a chance to get online anymore.

Anyway, I'll get my paycheck today, so I can cash it tonight when I get off and mail it off tomorrow.

Sorry this has been such a drama, but things just get crazy sometimes. I'm sure you know how it goes.

All right, well have a great day!

--Brian

P.S.: That other guy e-mailed me again yesterday, but I'm not even bothering to respond. What a bum.

I considered getting biblical and asking what she thought was an appropriate punishment for such a person but thought better of it.
