Thom is describing a guy he once dated, whose name is Linden.
It’s an unusual name, to me at least. The only other Lyndon I know of is, you know, that president. “Baines Johnson,” I say.
“No, this guy was L-I-N-D-E-N.”
“Oh.”
A pause.
“Like the tree,” we say simultaneously. We smile, and laugh a bit. This happens a lot, saying the same thing or finishing each other’s sentences. I always get a kick out of it.
“I love you!”
“I love you, too.”

Wow. (My) Jeff and I do that all the time too.
Sounds so much like us. Maybe committed, loving couples wind up synching up that way. It’s nice, isn’t it? 🙂
