EXHIBIT A. Transcription of Subject’s Yellow Post-It Notes
Dear Tag,
I bought a ficus. I thought it might cheer things up around here. Please remember to water it. I cleaned up the spilled beer in the refrigerator. Please be more careful. It got on the strawberries.
Theodore,
The ficus is dead. Not sure what happened, but that thing is shit brown and crispy. I puked behind the couch. Couldn’t make it to the bathroom. I must be coming down with something. We’re out of beer.
Dear Tag,
The ficus smells like urine. I threw it out, pot and all. I cleaned up the vomit. I don’t think we need any more beer.
Theodore,
I may have pissed in the ficus. I snagged some beer and a bottle of Jack. You’re welcome to a brew, but don’t touch my bourbon.
P.S. Don’t go to the Liquor Mart on 3rd. Ever. Cash for rent is attached.
Dear Tag,
Did you move my grandpa’s service pistol? I can’t find it anywhere. I cleaned up the urine on the bathroom floor. At least you used the correct room.
Theodore,
Fuck you.
Dear Tag,
I met the most amazing woman today. Beautiful, but shy. When she blushes it’s like the warmth of the summer sun. If she calls, please tell her I will call her back.
Theodore,
Jenny stopped by. Not very friendly. She said she doesn’t want to see you ever again. Bitch.
Dear Tag,
What happened? I went to Jenny’s to try to talk to her. She wouldn’t stop crying and threatened to call the police.
P.S. Throw away your condoms. Vomit and urine are one thing, THAT is another entirely.
Theodore,
Don’t worry about Jenny. I broke it. I’ll fix it.
Dear Tag,
Don’t talk to Jenny. I’ll try to call her in a few days.
Theodore,
We both know you are lying.
Dear Tag,
It’s my problem.
Theodore,
Your problems are my problems.
Dear Tag
Please, you’ve done enough.
Theodore,
Bullshit. I haven’t even started.
Dear Tag,
My car is missing. Did you get drunk and leave it somewhere again? I cleaned up the blood in the shower. Don’t shave in there.
Dear Tag,
You didn’t leave me a note last week. The police found my car. Someone burned it.
Dear Tag,
Still no note. I called Jenny. She didn’t answer.
Dear Tag,
No note. I thought we had an agreement. A note every Sunday. Still no call from Jenny.
Dear Tag,
The police were here. Jenny is missing…
Dear Tag,
???
