Author's Notes: Originates from Holmes' quote: "This looks like one of those unwelcome social summonses which call upon a man either to be bored or to lie."
The most unwelcome summons had already come, posted despite the fact the groom lived at my address to inform me in calligraphy on fine paper of an event I'd been dreading.
In the end, I was called upon both to be bored and to lie. I departed after an interminable ceremony and my required words.
"Mr. and Mrs. Watson, congratulations."
