The Budget of Paradox

Morey Percy whatever,
I always have to stop and think about your name. It’s certainly better than having me memorize some kooky pronouns. Anyway, I was thinking about the last time we spoke. You had just gotten a brand new passport in the mail. I’m curious: which name does it contain? If it’s Morey, can you still use it? No one at the airport would know. Certainly, no one in a foreign country would know.

I don’t think I ever asked you why you got it in the first place. Or, if I did, I forgot. Where were you planning to go? I know this was way after the Iceland thing.

A long time ago, you had a brief obsession with Japan, but I think that’s passed.

So, where did you want to go?

Well, if you ever used it, I hope you had a good time.

Sophia: if your mom refuses to get you a passport because she hates me (which is a logical, well-considered reason), I’ll pay for you to get one on your 18th birthday. The world is a big, exciting place. If the UAE is too far, remember that Mexico City is only four hours from Lynchburg. You can come down for a 3-day weekend.
