Marjorie is trying to finalize a data presentation she's been working on. She had some stuff to deal with at home and didn't make it in to work.
This afternoon she called my cell phone. She wanted to ask about the project, and had I heard anything from one of her team members who's also working on it. I'd heard only that the other person finished it as far as she could take it. It was waiting for Marjorie to finalize. I said she should at least come in to get the Valentine's Day flowers her husband had had delivered to her office. (He had called in the order before they knew she'd be out of the office.)
She stopped in to see me, we chatted a little. Then she went to her office to pick up the presentation, and the Valentine's Day roses from her husband.
She came back to my office, we chatted some more.
She left. Came back a third time. Did I know the coworker's cell number? No, I don't have it.
'I already turned off my computer. Do you know her email address?'
"Yeah, sure," I said. I was a little puzzled. We all have the same email addresses. First initial, last name, @. I don't know how she couldn't have known the address. I told her the address, she wrote it down. Then she left left.
