Anybody could have sent me a Ha!

Chelsea:

But you’re not crowdsourcing your flirty response to a Ha from just anybody.

7:14 AM

Mara:

She’s right. You’re fully obsessed.

7:15 AM

Chelsea:

It’s cute!! He’s SO your Harrison Ford but from Morning Glory. He’s all crabby and difficult.

7:17 AM

Mara:

Chels, he’s fully an old man in that movie.

7:19 AM

Chelsea:

Ford at any age CAN GET IT and so can Adam

7:21 AM

Alison:

Am I the “it” in that scenario?

7:24 AM

Mara:

Does this guy have plans for New Year’s Day? Is he into sports???

7:25 AM

Chelsea:

Al prefers we call him Hot Adam. Give him the respect he deserves!!

Two days go by without any new texts to or from Adam, and now that it’s Wednesday, I wonder if I killed the conversation. Is it my job to resuscitate it with the next text?

I’m feeling socially out of my depth when Daniella asks me to join a presentation in Duluth. Our company works up there enough that this isn’t an unprecedented occurrence, but the timing couldn’t be more perfect. What better way to resurrect a text conversation than to casually ask for a restaurant recommendation?
