Dear Mr. Persistent Hike,

When you asked me to give you my phone number, I pulled the ole "I'm leaving the country soon" card. Which this time, is actually true. But there's no getting past you. You are so clever and you know that there are phones also in the U.S. "Oh it does not matter. You can call me from America. Please take my number."

Then I told you about my mean, angry, jealous, boyfriend (who knows karate, obviously). "He will be very angry if he sees that you are calling me." But that really didn't slow you down either.

Honestly, those are the only two tricks I have up my sleeve. One of the two usually works. I guess it's a good thing I won't have to deal with those situations for much longer. Peace out Mr. Persistent Hike!



Forever!,
