A gmail chat with Paolo:
10:01 AM Paolo: I am sooooooo sleepy, you have no idea….
I am almosto considering to lock myself in the bathroom and take a nap….10:03 AM me: Just have a coffee, you’ll be fine; that’s where i’m going now too!
10:03 AM Paolo: had 3 already/
10:04 AM me: Ask somebody to slap you, that might help.
10:04 AM Paolo: yes Annxxxe.
You should know that Annxxxe is my mother’s name, and that threatening to give “tight slaps” is big in my family. And now that you know that about me, I’m sure a lot of other things are falling right into place.
