Saw You Later

Story Sent in by Edward:

At our first date dinner, Ashley would burst into laughter at random. Often (and especially) when nothing was said to prompt it, she came off pretty quickly as deranged.

When I asked her, "What's so funny?"

She said, "I can't tell you."

I replied, "Is it something about me?"

She said, "Not at all. I was thinking of the time I sawed off my friend's arm while she slept. You should've seen the look on her face and her scream!" She cackled again.

Suddenly uncomfortable, I said, "You're joking."

She wiped her eyes. "I'm not. I didn't make it all the way through her arm. She woke up before I did any permanent damage. Drugs, you know?"

"I sure do."

She laughed again, giving me a big stare as she did.

First and last date.
