The same, but different

Take forty-dollar friendship and:

  • modify the first sentence slightly;
  • shift the anonymizing letter a few places;
  • change one artist to a group; and
  • rewrite everything after i drove back up the interstate

and you’ve got something very similar to my version.

Except for one detail: it was seven years earlier and a different group, but I did it twice.
