UTTER DORKS
Contrary to (everyone's) expectations, Purple worked from work this afternoon. He missed lunch (he'd had a thing offsite at noon) and duly commiserated with me when I dropped by mid-evening to swear about the new system. It came time to wrap up. We compared notes on how much work we had left. I watched him sign off all work IMs, and started making sure all my files were tucked in for the night. As I saved my daily worklog for what I thought was the last time of the day, I saw his icon pop up green again.
AzureJaneL: *raises an eyebrow*
He had forgotten that he had parked in the parking lot nearer his building, instead of the (larger) one nearer mine.
AzureJaneL: oh, ok, I'll come over -- oh. wait.
The parking lot at work nearest my building is, in my estimation, 99% safe. The 1% is that large white panel van which likes to go zooming across the parking lot very late in the dead of night when there are only two people out wandering the parking lot. I am by no means afraid or even uncomfortable walking to my car alone (as two people can get hit by one van as easily as one can).
I am a grown-ass adult. I will see my good buddy, my partner in crime, my occasional straight man, tomorrow.
We agreed that he'd walk me to my car, then I'd drive him to his. And so we did.
