A year ago, mine and my wife's friend Mooly got married to our friend K-Ev. They got married in this itsy-bitsy teeny weeny town in North Central Texas. For some reason, they scheduled the wedding for fairly late in the afternoon. The reason I found this a bit odd is that I knew that they were heading to Dallas for their wedding night. Dallas was a three-hour drive from the itty bitty town.
Now, Cachinnatees, I'm not trying to embarrass our friends here or anything, I'm just saying that I know they had to be eager to get to Dallas given that they had been waiting for that night all their lives.
So, being a sick cruel man, I took every opportunity I had to remind Mooly of the loooooong drive ahead of him. I would go up to him, shake his hand, and whisper in his ear, "Three hours!" I would catch his eye from across the room and put up three fingers and mouth, "Three hours!" It was fun.
Then I saw his groom's cake. Mooly is an actor and they were heading for L.A. after the wedding. So naturally, his cake was the Hollywood Hills complete with the sign. Halfway through the celebration, I looked over at the cake, snapped a picture with my camera, waited until they were on the road to Dallas, and sent it along with the following caption:
Just thinking of you. Enjoy the drive!Does that make me a bad person?

Doing my best Babu Bhat impression:
"You're a very bad man, Cach. Very, very bad."

It only makes you a bad person if before you took the picture, you ran over to Becky, mischteviously grabbled the cake-cutting knife from her hand, violently CHOPPED the cake in half, gave her back the knife, and ran back to quickly shoot the picture.
But she says the state of the cake wasn't on purpose. So fate must have been on your side...if fate has a say in those kind of things. Which, upon thinking further, not fate, luck was on your side.
