Re: No TV
Hi Sassy,
I know…Ms. Demure is back in the saddle. Cheer up. Without Ms. Demure there could be no Sassy!
I am very pleased that you grasped the most important take-away…free breakfast and lunch. Not really free as you imply. You recognize the value of the moments of your life.
I agree with your main strengths and your MB assessment.
- You help create communities.
- You bail people out of jail 🙂
- You anticipate and fulfill the needs of others.
- You help others fulfill their potential.
I still wonder about this man that you live with. Is he an artist/actor as a sole occupation? What does Ms. Demure get out of the relationship? Is he a boy – toy past his expiration date? No need to answer.
Who takes care of Ms. Demure, and Sassy?
I have two times I have to be at work this week – 11:00 tomorrow and Thursday 2:00 to 4:00. Otherwise I am still pretty open.
Have a great day!
-Jim

Re: No TV
Oh, by the way you asked me how I know you live close to work and I don’t think I gave an answer.
You told me when you were on vacation and had to get up early that you never do that. Also, you live in Boston. Why would you ever want to leave Boston? If I lived there I would try not to own a car.

Good morning Jim! I am racing to yet another 3 hour HR meeting this morning, but wanted you to know I am thinking of you and hope to have time at lunch or right after work to respond more fully. Have a terrific Tuesday!

Re: Tuesday tunes
Okay
Speaking of tunes I am listening to a live version of Girl from Ipanema by Gilberto / Getz right now.
Enjoy your day!

We heard that a lot in Mexico last week. Great beat! Do you like to dance? I’m not good at anything that requires much coordination or remembering steps, but I adore shaking my groove thing! Or a slow, close dance with groping.

Aha! Thanks for circling back around with that explanation of why you think I live close to work. It is a testament to how closely you pay attention and draw conclusions.
I did not own a car until I was 43! I could take cabs or rent cars for less than the insurance costs. But then I got mixed up with a community project, and had a friend go into a rehab facility in the burbs who was in a wheelchair and a neighbor’s brother was selling his mini-van and… it was time.

Re: Tuesday tunes
That is also the extent of my dancing ability!

Hiya Jim!
I survived another 3 hour workshop this morning – “Resilience in times of change!” Another free breakfast and Thai lunch. Yum. He closed with how the Wizard of Oz is the perfect model for going through change. Heh.
No one takes care of me. Wanna do a little?
My brain is rather mushy. Do we want to meet tomorrow after your meeting for a late lunch? Or Thursday mid-morning? Or Friday sometime? Sorry I am usually more organized on setting up a meet but am in this odd confluence of work, theater and family post-vacation crazies. My practical side says I am too busy to meet but Sassy WANTS TO! Forgive me. Help me forge ahead!

Re: Meet
How about lunch on Friday?
I can show up for an early lunch if you want.
I can meet you anywhere you want.

Yay! We have a day and approximate time. Woohoo! This helps brighten my day.
I will think of a safe place, with parking if possible, probably a Starbucks to start? I may be able to take off work, which would broaden the choices. Otherwise we’ll have to meet near my office.
Have you seen this program? It’s a lot of fun to search for places half way between two points.
