Zack Gets Married

I learned tonight that my former roommate got married. We were only roommates for about two weeks last fall before Hurricane Katrina separated us. Zack was single like I am single—not dating anyone but desperately looking. We had two other roommates, Casey and Tim, but they were both engaged.

It seemed as though Zack was my complement, some might say he was my foil. I thought that I would get married long before he did and I was wrong. Zack got married in February after meeting his bride while doing disaster relief work in Alexandria. She is a fellow Texan and she did not live too far from where Zack was reared.

Casey, Tim, and Zack (December, January, and February, respectively), have gotten married since we were forced to evacuate—I’m the only one still single. Do you think it was something in the water and I just was not drinking enough (I certainly showered in the water more than those guys). Was March my month and I missed it? What’s wrong with me?

P.S. Please do not comment publicly about the last question, it was rhetorical!
