I was so excited that I might have gushed a little more than necessary , but oh well . Maybe she 'll get excited and apply . In other news , my mom called and said that John finally mailed my textbooks back to me . I only had to wait three months .

Question: What may be the reason John mailed the textbooks back to me ?
Answer: I loaned them to him a long time ago and he is just now returning them .He kept forgetting to apply to college so he sent them back .He got made at me for gushing too much and kept them for three months .I purchased them from John and he was mailing them to me .
