He will probably never see this, but I'm writing it here so I don't forget...
For the past 45 minutes, I had been going back and forth... not being able to decide if I was hungry enough to eat or tired enough to nap. I kept going back and forth and ended up spending almost my entire lunch hour debating myself at my desk. My assistant was looking at me like I was insane.
Then A, the IT guy came in to do some work on a new workstation for a new intern I'll be getting. He witnessed some of this and then got a call and had to leave.
I decided that since I only had 5 minutes left for lunch that I'd go and have popcorn for lunch (not a healthy meal, I know).
As I headed back up the stairs, a bottle of Diet Coke in one hand and a bag of burnt popcorn in the other, A came bounding down the stairs looking for me.
He had gone to the lunch truck and brought back 2 burgers... one for him and one for me so we could eat lunch together.
He was worried that I was not going to eat anything (or anything healthy... imagine that!) so he went and got me lunch!
That was so nice! I told him I was going to take him out to lunch when I wasn't quite so crazy and he teased, "Oh, so you're saying it'll never happen then, huh?"
My brain was too fuzzy to come up with a better comeback than, "Yes it will!"
Sheesh.
