Or his brother, the winky smiley face.
Okay.
Good to know.
Hello.
"Still hung over, thinking about ditching my staff meeting.
" Oh, this is good.
Two texts in a row, man.
She's definitely into you.
Yeah.
See? I know what I'm doing.

So, what do I do now? Nothing, all right? You had a successful exchange.
Now you let it breathe.
Don't write back? You let it breathe.
For how long? We'll let you know.
Can I get, like, a ball park? I kind of got to get back to work here.
Okay, cool.
Sorry.
Um, winky face.
That's good.
That's great.
I now pronounce this shoot Wrapped.
They really made you earn your pay today, huh? I'm just guessing you're used to shooting the waify, "I'll just have a half a leaf and a diet coke for lunch" kind of runway model.
Hey, now, you are a very Oh, look.
I know.
I wasn't fishing sweets.
You know, I just have learned over the years in my many, many, many sexual encounters that the conventionally attractive women, you know, sometimes don't really have the ganas.
The what? The ganas.
You know, the the desire.
The desire to really take their time and pleasure a man or a woman.
That's a good one.
Oh, man.
What was that? That, my mocha fonzie, was the ganas.
Jessica texted me Twice.
That's great.
I haven't written back yet.
You want to know why? Tyler says I'm letting it breathe.
So it is breathing.
Uh-huh.
What? You don't agree? You think I should write her back, don't you? You know what? So do I.
I didn't say that.
You didn't have to.
That's what I love about you.
You don't live your life following a bunch of made-up rules.
I mean, look at that hat.
It's ridiculous, and everybody thinks so.
Everybody? Everybody.
But you don't care.
And I respect the hell out of you for that.
Good talk, Neal! Hi.
Hey.
Just finishing up a little background work on our so-called sex-pert.
Oh, Tyler, you disappoint me.
You really do.
This woman has spent years studying the art of sexual gratification.
And then spreading those teachings across this great, great, great nation of ours.
You had sex with her.
Sex.
Such a dirty word, my friend.
And we had a lot of that dirty word.
What?! She did things to me, Tyler.
She touched me okay, stop.
I know how it works.
No.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's not about here.
It's about here.
And here.
She touched my mind penis.
Oh, come on, man! I can't un-hear that.
Why was it so great? How does one explain a butterfly to the sightless? Hey, "Almost pretty enough to be a chick.
" You ready for the q&a, Bieber? Hey, sweet saddle.
You still walking funny? Listen, uh, I just want to say that that was I know.
My bathing suit parts had a great time, too.
So Have you heard from Jessica? Jessica, your date from last night? I don't know her.
So you haven't heard from her? Nope.
Well, that makes two of us! I texted her and haven't heard back! Thanks a lot, Neal! Once again, I didn't tell Why didn't she write back?! Maybe she's busy.
Maybe she's trapped under something heavy.
She's not.
What if there's been a zombie outbreak at her office and she's holed up someplace waiting for me.
If they've breached the perimeter of the building, then wait, are we doing this? Three hours ago, I was in charge of this text conversation, and now I'm not.
And I blame you and your hat.
Just because you took it off doesn't mean you're not still wearing it.
I don't know, either.
Now, how did you start blogging about your learnings? Do I sense a little skepticism here? No, no, I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who need this particular type of help.
But you're not one of them, right? Let me just take a shot in the dark here.
You've never had a tough time landing a lady, right? Well, I don't like to brag.
Oh, sure you do, right? What happens? You let these poor girls just swim around in those eyes of yours for a spell and then right before the horizontal slip and slide, it's wham, bam, "Don't touch the hair.
" Am I right? They can touch the hair.
Yeah.
You've had it so easy, Tom Brady.
Okay.
I get it.
You're this sexual guru that breaks men down so quickly they think they're inadequate.
And you know what? Good scam, and it obviously worked wonders on Gibbs.
But this isn't my first time at bat.
Welcome to the majors, kiddo.
What was that? What did I just do? That was called "crymaxing.
" Hmm? There's only three people in the country who can induce it, and you just got sweet and sour with one of 'em.
I don't even know how to explain.
I mean Shh! That'll do, pig.
That'll do.
But, um The colors? They're so much brighter.
And the air It seems so I know.
I know! Nothing.
Not a word.
From who? Jessica.
I wrote her back.
I told you to let it breathe.
Neal and his hat told me to write her back.
Yeah, that's what me and my hat did.
Hold up.
What did you write? Nothing.
She said she was maybe gonna skip her meeting, so I wrote, "No, you can't.
" How'd you phrase it? Just like that.
I wrote, "No, you can't.
" Well, that's not bad.
It's a little boring, but oh, no.
No way.
What? "No, you can't.
" "No, you can't.
" "No, you c " oh.
That is not how you spell "can't.
" She isn't answer my calls, or texts.
I filled her voicemail both home and work.
What else am I supposed to do? Turn yourself in to the police.
I mean, is it that big of a deal? In england, they use that word all the time, right? Right? It's like their version of "smurf.
" Milo, maybe you let this one go or just let it be a lesson.
Or maybe I go down to her work and apologize in person.
No.
Why? That's where I shine face-to-face.
All this texting and tweeting and super poking, that's not me.
I'm good in the room.
I'm good in person.
Look at me.
You go down there, she will call the police.
She'll call the police, but she won't call me? Fine.
Okay, fine.
I'll just Wait for her to get back to me, all right? I'm good.
I'm good.
Excuse me one second.
Milo? Hi.
So, this is your work.
What are you doing here? Okay, look, I'm sorry for coming here like this, but I thought we had a really great time last night, and then we had this whole texty banter thing going on, which I'm also new to, so then when I sent you that text and you didn't respond, so then I called and I sent you some e-mails and then I wrote on your Facebook wall Don't forget to wish your cousin a Happy Birthday, by the way.
But I just wanted you to know that what I meant to write was "No, you can't.
" I know.
Right, so, then, when you didn't respond, I thought you meant Oh.
You know? Yeah, milo, I was pretty sure you weren't calling me the worst word in the world for no reason.
Well, then, why didn't you respond? Because I'm working.
And I was in a meeting.
Of course.
Look, milo, I had a really nice time, too.
Oh, good.
Cool.
Okay.
Me, too.
So, we're good? We're cool? We're cool.
That is awesome.
Um So, maybe on Friday you want to go out and no.
Is it because of this whole virtual stalking thing I have going on, plus I showed up at your work all crazy like? You got it.
That got away from me pretty quick.
Amy.
Hi, pooh bear! Ohh! Mwah! I was just in the neighborhood, and I thought I'd come by and say "Hi" to my big 3-course Neal! That is so sweet.
Well, that is just what couples do.
We surprise each other, get each other gifts.
Speaking of which, where's that hat I got you? The The hat? Mm-hmm.
Hat, you know, goes on your head so your thoughts don't escape.
Oh, look! Here's one! But it couldn't be yours because you loved it and you'd never just throw it in the trash, right? Trash?! Uh no, um That there's a Hat can.
A hat can? Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
We just did this huge spread on 'em in the fashion issue.
Everybody's got 'em Clooney, Pitt, and others.
Well, Clooney, pitt, and others Why didn't you say so? I'm totally not mad anymore.
Really? No, not really! No, I'm I'm sorry.
It was just it was such a sweet gift, but everybody was calling me names and offering me two bits for the weekly, and I don't even know what the hell that means.
Neal, if you didn't like the hat, you could have just told me.
I didn't make it, I just thought it was cute.
So, I could have told you this morning that I didn't like the Honey, I am never gonna get mad at you for being honest with me.
All right.
Then I have to tell you.
I did not like that sweater you gave me for my birthday.
I made that sweater W-with the yarn from my baby blanket.
Oh No, I know it.
I know it, and I love it.
It was just a little tight around my neck, but I'm working with it, and you didn't make that sweater, did you? It's so easy with you.
All right, boys.
That was fun, but mama's got to blog.
Wait! Yeah, I was thinking that maybe Do you want to go to dinner with me sometime? Or me? Probably me.
Well, look at you.
You get one tiny taste of the rainbow, and you're hooked.
I wouldn't say "hooked.
" I am.
I'm hooked.
I want to taste that rainbow again.
Sorry, pup.
One ride per customer.
I just really wanted to show you guys that even though I'm not a super model, it's not really how a woman looks.
I mean, right now, you're ready to suck a golf ball through a garden hose for one more trip to flavor country.
Take me with you? Sorry, honey.
I hunt alone.
Would you look at that strut.
Like a sexy hulk walking out of our lives.
Wow.
Hey, did you, um Did you Crymax with her? Crymax? No.
Did you? No.
A little.
Like a baby being born.

That is just sad.
Oh, really? Is it sadder than you both sleeping with the same sex blogger? Boom.

I'm sorry.
Are you crying? No, he's okay.
It's just a little "crymaxing.
