Perfect World [George Harrison]

[ LETTER ONE: GEORGE ]

Lola,

I'm sorry we couldn't go out a second time. I tried getting it set up but my schedule was unfortunately all booked. I tried calling but I didn't get an answer. We are off to America now, and I won't have much time with all of the things we'll be doing and all. (Not to mention the dreaded time zone difference.) I still want to keep in touch with you, so I thought it was a good idea to send you letter. Letters can also be written at any point during the day, which is good.

I want to thank you for Paris. Thank you for staying with me through that wicked ride. It was a lot of fun seeing you.

I'm currently on a plane. I thought I'd be best I write now as the others snore off. Except for John, he's trying to write Cyn a letter. If you can read this much, John, you are too close.

Alright, he moved away.

.

Tell me, Lols is that a good nickname or should I come up with something better? I should probably come up with something better. The whole point of nicknames is that they are shorter.

I am really not great at first letters. They feel too much like introductions. Hello, I'm George Harrison and I'm turning a year older every year. (Thank goodness.) Not turning a year older would mean I'm dead. But you already know my name. Let's see hmmm...I love hugging trees. (shh, don't tell anyone.) Actually, do tell everyone. You can sell it to the magazines, make some money off of that.

We can split the money you make and get lunch. Good plan, ya?

What's your favorite food? (The answer to this might determine how much I like you in the future.) Just kidding, Lola! (Not really.)

I've told you my name. Check.

I told you some weird thing about me. Check.

I've threatened not to like you in the future based on an answer to a question. Check.

I've made a horrible nickname for you. Check.

My job here is done.
