The Universe is redressing the balance! I went to Book Club after school and was treated with affection and respect, which I returned willingly and in spades.
Joey, Adrian and Michael* were there and we had a fantastic discussion about our books, with Michael being particularly impressive. After a while, talk came round to other, more frivolous topics and Adrian decided that the Librarian would henceforth be known as the Queen of Book Club and that I would be the Empress.
"What about when she leaves?" asked Michael. "Who will be the Empress then?"
"She will always be Empress!" announced Adrian. "Empress Eternal!"
The Universe is stable once more and a nice thing balances the nastiness of yesterday. Well, it made me smile, anyway.
* not their real names
